Smallville alum Kristin Kreuk is currently in late negotiations to guest star on Fringe, a source close to the production has told CinemaSpy. The episode, entitled "Northwest Passage", begins shooting next week, and takes place in the, not surprisingly, Pacific Northwest. CinemaSpy has been informed that the deal to sign Kreuk hadn't been locked as of two days ago, but that it's likely. A decision is expected this week.

If Kreuk is cast, no word yet on what part she will play, though we've been told there are at least two roles available in the story, including that of a law enforcement officer.

Kreuk has most recently appeared in a four-episode arc of NBC's Chuck, playing a sweet nerd named Hannah, a new employee at the Buy More.

In related Fringe news, CinemaSpy has learned that Leonard Nimoy will return for either episode 21 or 22 to participate in the season finale storyline (as expected), reprising his role as William Bell; the producers are hoping to shoot some material in New York; and that according to the script, the finale will feature ? car buffs take note ? a BMW 12 Series. This last bit is significant because the automaker doesn't manufacture a 12 Series and thus the car is presumably from the alternate universe established in the show's mythology.

Fringe returns to television April 1, with eight new episodes in a row. The season finale is set to air on May 20.

Production on the series, which films in Vancouver, is on hiatus this week due to the Vancouver 2010 Olympic Winter Games.

Kristen spoke about how excited she is to film the new Josh Schwartz comedy, Hitched, and put to rest the rumours that she will be on Fringe this season (she will NOT be appearing).

Good. I cant stand her acting, all she ever did in Smallville was f**king cry :hmmm:

So I've been catching up on Season 2 [as I missed most of it] and I'm currently on episode 11--the one with the girl and the Russian guy with the launch codes.

Now... I'm about 1/4 way into the episode, and I'm incredibly confused. It's no spoiler anymore that

Charlie died early on, and was 'replaced' by one of the shapeshifters

[though I'll black it out anyway], but Olivia took care of that in episode... 4 or 5, I don't remember.

They showed her shooting Doppelganger Charlie in the head.

Now... They called in Teresa Rusk, and in the office is... Charlie? What is going on? Everyone wasn't even giving him a second glance, as if nothing had happened.

J.J. Abrams says the second season finale will be just as "impactful" as the first-season finale was, but richer, deeper and better as well. And it may wrap up some storylines, but he's not saying exactly. Also, the upcoming April Fools episode is "retro and weird," and may spoof old science fiction shows as well as showing our heroes using retro technology. [Sci Fi Wire]

that was an unaired season 1 episode

That's pretty moronic. Not only did it confuse people, but it had this incredibly idiotic supernatural thing going. Sure, Fringe is pretty "fringe" and borders on supernatural nonsense, but this episode was simply over the line. More at-least-something-that-resembles-science, less stupid crap.

Fringe given a 3rd Season!

Sci-fi fans who may be concerned about the state of the genre on network TV (we?re looking at you, V and FlashForward) have at least one reason to rejoice: EW has learned exclusively that Fox has picked up Fringe for a third season. Though the show isn?t exactly blowing the roof off of Nielsen ? it?s been averaging just 7.6 million viewers and is ranked No. 50 in the all-important adults 18-49 demographic this season ? it managed to survive in a tough new time period on Thursdays. The show returns with new episodes ? and the promise of more visits from Leonard Nimoy and to the parallel universe ? on April 1.

    • I think you meant the "ntfs3" driver, but yes there have been a lot of fixes for it in this release and previous releases, not 100% sure if the issue you mentioned is fixed though. In any case, the new "ntfs" driver in 7.1 doesn't have that issue (at least, no reports of such have come thru), but your kernel needs to explicitly enable support for the new driver first (like how CachyOS kernel has it), and you need to edit your mount points in /etc/fstab to use "ntfs" instead of the other drivers.
    • Epic Games says Unreal Engine 6 will help developers "build content faster" using AI models by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Epic Games is rolling out the latest major update to Unreal Engine 5 today, and at the same time, the company also dropped some information on the next-generation version of the product, Unreal Engine 6. This was already revealed a few weeks ago alongside the new Rocket League upgrade reveal. The company says it is combining the features of Unreal Engine and Unreal Editor for Fortnite to create this new version of its popular media creation tool. On top of creating entire games, the new engine will also focus on letting developers operate large-scale live service titles more easily, whether by shipping content into their own ecosystems or into Fortnite. The use of large language models is also mentioned here, with Epic saying it will be a core part of the engine. "We see LLMs, generative AI models, and tools like Claude and Codex playing a central role in helping you build content faster while maintaining the creative control you need," adds the company. Here is the rundown of what's new about version 6 of Unreal Engine: With all these changes to the programming model, portability upgrades, and generative AI integration, Epic says the new version of the engine will "change a lot about how games are made." The company aims to ship Unreal Engine 6 into early access in late 2027, with a full release planned for 12-18 months later. Epic Games also dropped a lengthy blog post about the new Unreal Engine 5.8 update for game developers over here. The release is focused on delivering better performance, customization, and streamlined workflows for development teams. This will be the final major update for this version of the engine before Epic switches to focus fully on Unreal Engine 6's early access launch.
    • Watch Louis Rossmann's recent experience on YouTube about trying to get a warranty replacement from Samsung. It's crazy.
    • That is the thing, how many of these people don't realise they are using AI? If they use Google Search they have no choice but to use AI. So yes, maybe half of American adults do use and I expect a lot of Uk adults do to, but I bet most of them don't realise it. Myself, i avoid the rubbish.
    • They use FREE AI. They aren't paying for this meme-generating slopware...
