Hey all --

I spoke with Andy on Tuesday, and he did have a few bits of news to share. I
am sure there will be more later; we did talk for a while, but a lot of our
talk was, understandably, about the tragedy in New York.

Andy's production company, People Produce Films, has sold its first project
to Viacom!! They are all very excited, since the concept was homegrown and
rather personal to all involved. The project is a television series called
"Prodigy" -- it's a spy-thriller/adventure show which hints that the lead
may be the son of a famous gentleman-spy we all know. It's unclear at this
time how Viacom will proceed with the project, when they might film a pilot,
when they might present this to networks.

People Produce Films is also working to develop a feature film called "The
Rune Journey" about some very ancient runes from a forgotten civilization
discovered on an archeological dig. The runes are translated and tell tales
of mythic proportions. Andy said, "think Braveheart meets Harry Potter,"
but listening to him describe it, I couldn't help thinking, The Lord Of The
Rings meets Indiana Jones. We'll just have to wait and see.

As far as G-S.P.O.T. goes, the financial backing they thought they had fell
through yet again. But, they are not discouraged -- this is fairly typical
of independent films. Andy said they'd really rather do it all themselves
anyway, so they won't have to make compromises. They can cast who they want
and do it all their way. They have a really great cast signed on, committed
-- name veteran-actors as well as some up-and-coming ones seen on the WB --
so the film should make a good splash once it's made. I'll see if I can't
encourage Andy to sell some t-shirts in a fund raising effort: maybe some of
you would be interested? The film has a cool tag line, "G-S.P.O.T.: a
touching drama ... bursting with laughs."

No news on possible upcoming roles, but Andy tends not to say anything until
it's a sure thing. Keep your fingers crossed for something soon!

Good wishes to all,

Bonnie, AKFC
