| | I did a post in The Attackmen thread about Dominic playing the role of an American lacrosse coach at a High School. As well as him having an American accent.......I've found out that he plays a gay in the role. In the film he gets kicked out of the school he's teaching at. It's a controversial role and Dominic played the part with so much bravery and is so great in the role that there could be possible awards for him. I've always said he's a great actor and even though he's famous all over the world for his Star Trek role, it sounds like this movie could REALLY get him noticed in Hollywood. So good luck for the movie (and Dominic) when it hits the Film Festival Circuit.  |

| I must confess I have been impressed with the variety of roles that Dominic has taken on since Enterprise finished - good for him!!! He's certainly not going to get himself typecast.

An American accent???  This I've got to hear! (Loved the track suit pic!) TMG you heard him do an American accent in Broken Bow and Sleeping Dogs when he copied Trip's accent!! He did a fantastic American accent in the film The Hollywood Sign (I think it was a New Jersey accent). From what he said, everyone on the film set was amazed when he talked in his normal English accent....they all thought he WAS American!! See, told you he was a great actor!  I think he looks good in the pics too. There should be more pics on the website soon. |

| | He's really had some excellent roles since he left Enterprise. I think people in Hollywood are gonna be impressed! Hollywood Kills is one film I know will be a big success......Dominic always plays evil characters so well and he said the role stretched him. It sure looks good from the trailer.......really scary. The Attackmen sounds like another challenging role for him as well. So I think this could be a fantastic year for him.  |

| | Do you think his future lies in films? From what I've heard, he gives a powerful performance in The Attackmen so I really hope he gets offered more film roles so we get to see him in demanding roles that stretch his acting to the full. |

It's still in post production then when it's finished, the film has to be entered into Film Festivals and go on the Festival Circuit. It all depends on how successful it is as to whether it gets picked up by a national distributor. If it does get success and acclaim (which I have a feeling it could do) then maybe we'll have a chance to go see it. So it could be quite a while before we heard about any release date. |

| as far as I'm aware, the attackmen is a SHORT film. regardless of success you have next to no chance of seeing it in a cinema. Short films do not get played in cinemas. if at all (very unlikely) the art cinemas are your only hope but regardless, IT DOES NOT HAPPEN.
I hate to have to stress this again but I worry that you get your hopes up over this. what you want is the festival circuit to do favourably but I have a question. at the oscars/globes/baftas... all the short film awards (all two of them), how often do you see those films at a cinema or even out on dvd with any fanfare? How many of them can you name? Heck, those presentations are mostly cut out of televised broadcasts (oscar still shows them but hey, that's oscar for you) and as for names of short films, I'm hard pressed to think of many from recent years and I'm attempting to make film my life's career!
I am very much looking forward to getting to see this film one day, I just have to be pessimistic and say it'll
