Not only do I read about a new Blue Velvet DVD coming out (with deleted scenes no less!!!) but I read this snippet over at Comics Continuum that combines my love for Sherilyn Fenn and DC Comics!!!...
"Harley Quinn creator Paul Dini told The Continuum he approves of the casting of Sherilyn Fenn in the Birds of Prey pilot.
The WB has confirmed that Fenn will play Dr. Harleen Quinzel, also known as Harley Quinn.
"I think she's a good choice, especially as the creators have re-imagined not just Harley, but all the characters as darker and more intense than their comic-book and cartoon counterparts," Dini told The Continuum. "I was a big fan of Sherilyn's work on Twin Peaks. She'll add a nice dimension to Dr. Quinzel and her deeply twisted other side."
The WB made the announcement in conjunction with Fenn's guest-starring stint on the season's last three episodes of Dawson's Creek beginning April 24.
Fenn recently starred in the Showtime series Rude Awakening as a recovering alcoholic who must learn to deal with her demons. She just wrapped production on Showtime's $windle with Tom Sizemore.
Fenn is best known for her role as the cherry stem-tying Audrey in Twin Peaks. This role brought her national attention and a Golden Globe and Emmy nomination for Best Supporting Actress.
The Birds of Prey pilot stars Dina Meyer as Barbara Gordon/Oracle, Ashley Scott as Helena Kyle/The Huntress and Rachel Skarsten as Dinah Lance/Black Canary.
Look for more on Birds of Prey soon here in The Continuum.
As I said - I'm happy!!!
Paul :)
