The latest scoop on Joshua Jackson’s role as Peter Bishop on Fox’s Fringe is there is a major reveal coming per TV Guide about his character. They won’t say of course, but it’s huge.
 
Anna Torv, John Noble and Joshua Jackson on the move to find a creature on Fringe’s “Unleashed”
For now, we’ll continue to get more on Olivia (Anna Torv) and her mysterious background.
I’m pretty excited about this “Peter Bishop” development. It’s unclear how much contact Peter had with his father Walter Bishop (John Noble) so many years ago before Dad went off to the loony bin.

The countdown to the end of Fringe’s first season has already begun, and IGN is taking a good look at the mysterious corporation, Massive Dynamic. If you’ve been wondering if the company is good, or bad, it may still prove to be an unknown, although much of the weird case events of “the pattern” that happen do seem to lead back to this happy giant.
Massive Dynamic even has its own corporate web site.  Will we finally get to “meet” William Bell, Walter Bishop’s old lab partner, and will Nina Sharp, Bell’s right hand, finally show her true hand? …read more

Congratulations to Fringe stars Anna Torv and Mark Valley on their nuptials! Yes, I was completely surprised that these two were able to secretly tie the knot over the holidays.
 
I’m impressed with how well they were able to keep this wedding on the down low, but then again, being part of a J.J. Abrams project is probably the best training you can get for doing covert operations. If anyone remembers all the mystery surrounding the production of Lost, and even his scary monster movie, Cloverfield, you know exactly what I mean.
Anna graduated from the National Institute of Dramatic Art, Australia’s …read more

Fringe star Anna Torv will be a guest on Jimmy Kimmel Live on Monday, November 24. Be sure to catch Fringe on Tuesdays at 9:00 PM on Fox.
Anna’s hunky co-star Joshua Jackson made the list of People’s Sexiest Men Alive (No. 14 on the list). Others on the list include Hugh Jackman, Daniel Craig, Robert Pattinson and David Beckham. I’d say he’s in pretty good company. You can see a great scan of Joshua from the People article here, and he looks amazingly GQ in this one.

Fringe star Kirk Acevedo recently ran the New York City Marathon and placed high enough to qualify for the upcoming Boston Marathon in April.

He portrays FBI agent Charlie Francis on Fox’s Fringe. In this video, he talks about his character, and how he prepared for his role on the show. Unfortunately, his interview is at the very end (at 5:13) but it’s fun to get a sense of how all the actors are working together.

In a recent article, it was noted that many of our favorite prime time TV stars are non-American. Looking over the list, many of them are some of our favorite FBI drama stars.
As noted this is nothing new, except what was once just a few foreign actors has now become a boatload. The reason behind the shift is economics, but as viewers, we just simply enjoy our stars.
So let’s see who some of these FBI drama stars are, what we like about them, and who is our favorite?
