Some Pics from Calgary Comic and Entertainment Con

Wanderfull1 and PhocalPoint have posted some public pics to their flickr pages of Tahmoh and many other celebrity guests at the Calgary Comic and Entertainment Convention.

Email us if you have any recent convention reports or pictures you would like to share.

Site housekeeping: We are aware that some older links no longer work because the sites that hosted the materials removed them or no longer exist. AATP compiles information and occasionally posts original content (Q&A with Tahmoh, screencaps, etc.), but we more often link to videos or interviews posted on other sites. We regret that some of the sites have removed their Tahmoh-related content, but AATP does not usually retain copies of videos, interviews, or other materials to which we have linked.

ScifiandTVTalk shares an interview with Tahmoh about his role as Matt Ellman in Riverworld.

This has only happened to me a few times, including with my character of Helo on Battlestar, which is when I first read the [audition] sides for the character of Matt in Riverworld I thought, ‘I understand this guy; I know where he’s coming from,’” says Penikett. When the pieces fall together like that, you’ve got to trust your instincts, so I was really eager to get into the audition room.

I met with [Riverworld director] Stuart Gillard and, honestly, I was a bit rusty as far as the audition process goes. You can be a professional actor who has been working all year long, which I’d been, but if it’s been a while since your last audition it can feel a little weird. So in this instance I had a couple of rough starts, but I subsequently worked on three scenes with Stuart and he seemed pleased with what I’d done.

The Green Chain DVD was launched on Earth Day, April 22. Read more here.

Riverworld Tomorrow

Riverworld airs tomorrow, Sunday, April 18, 7:00 pm Eastern, in the US on Syfy.

Tahmoh talked to Suzanne Simons of CNN.com a couple of weeks ago. She and Tahmoh debated the most important point of the miniseries.

A couple of weeks ago, he tried to convince me that the love story was key.... To me, the message was about the endless search for meaning in a world where people are perpetually reincarnated and plopped right back along the riverbank without really knowing how or even why.... "I think the point you make is probably the most important in the miniseries or at least the one thing that anyone who's arrived on Riverworld is trying to figure out," Penikett said. "Why are they there? Have they been chosen to make amends for past mistakes? Does everyone on the planet share similar mistakes, and by whose standards, laws or religions are they judged by?"
