RedheadZombie October 30, 2016 Share October 30, 2016 I see that Entertainment Weekly has an article about supernatural activity on set. The actors playing the sisters both claim the elevator (from the pilot) always stopped on floor 13. And GD states she just learned that the set was being blessed by a priest. Cast members from the movie claimed much more malevolent things. Besides the actor who played Burke dying, I believe there were other cast members who had loved ones die. The story goes that there was pressure to have the set blessed, but there was disagreement among the top brass. Before anything was done, the set inexplicably started on fire.

CelticBlackCat October 31, 2016 Share October 31, 2016 I am just now finishing the book The Story Behind The Exorcist, by Peter Travers and Stephanie Reiff (1974). Weird things did happen during the filming, but could probably be explained by natural occurrences. Jack MacGowran, who played Burke Dennings, the director of the film-within-the-film, died of a heart attack after having just recovered from the London flu, aged 55, two weeks after he finished his part in the movie. The actress who played Father Karras' mother, Greek-born Vasiliki Maliaros, died nine days later of natural causes, age 89. Linda Blair's grandfather died during the filming of the movie as well.

As good as the cast is, the Rances' story is pretty much settled and I don't see any need for more than a check-in at some point (plus not re-upping Geena Davis as a regular can only help the show's budget).

kitticup July 22, 2017 Share July 22, 2017 (edited) I went to the panel and enjoyed it. John Cho, Brianna, Alfonso, Ben, Kurt and 2 producer types were on the panel. Ben seemed really into it. He seemed giddy. Brianna is a big horror film fan. She seemed happy to be on the show. The only thing is she didn't get a lot of questions I felt bad for her. When they filmed in Mexico City, Alfonso took his co stars to Lucha Libre and got them ant egg pizza. apparently the director of the film was not happy about the series, but the book writer was fine. The producers met with some exorcists off the record. They said that the priests were very soft spoken, but had very frightening stories. So these priests were the best actors in the world or they truly believed what they were saying. The Regan twist was not something they pitched to the network. Most of the cast was not aware of it. Although Ben felt that the mom had to been possessed because she so readily knew something was wrong. He was very astute. Spoilers Father Bennet (Kurt) will be at the Vatican trying to fight corruption in the church. We will get his backstory and meet his mentor. Apparently his backstory is tragic. They did mention the Office of Exorcisms. they will be shooting in Vancouver in part to keep costs down, but the producers felt it lets them do creepy stories. Father marcus may be dating. The impact of the excommunication will be explored. This is the first time in his life since he was a young child. He is without structure in his life. The excommunication also impacts his relationship with Tomas. Tomas might be taking unnecessary risks that impacts the relationship.
