The Women of Caprica

It's not the end of the world as we know it

As you've probably already read elsewhere, SyFy has canceled Caprica and pulled the rest of the run (for now). With luck we'll see the remainder of the season in early 2011. If you're looking for some insight on to what went wrong, you can read some speculation here.

But, for us, is this the end? No, not at all. Paula Malcomson seems to be popping up everywhere (did you see her on The Event on Monday?). Alessandra Torresani is in the upcoming film Playback. Magda Apanowicz is shooting some new projects. Polly Walker is doing movies. And Lucinna Carro is hitting the convention circuit. So while this group of excellent actresses continues their career we'll be here to follow them. We thank you all for your continued support.

 

Alessandra Torresani and Sasha Roiz answer more questions!

Now that we've seen the next part, how about some Q&A:

 

Read Magda and own Alessandra

First off, Magda Apanowicz has written an article about being young in Hollywood. She starts, "I’ve been living, off and on in Los Angeles for the last two years. I’ve been acting for the last 10 years. I feel more like a Los Angelean then I do a Vancouver Native at this point in my life. Acting has meant the world to me. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, “Acting has saved my life.” I don’t define myself as an actress but I would definitely attest to it being a teacher in my life, it has help formed who I am today." You can read the rest of her article here.

Meanwhile, while you prepare to watch Caprica tomorrow, you can contemplate owning a dress worn by Alessandra Torresani. While the auction won't start until November, you can read SyFy's press release about this and other auctions they're running. The profits go to National Non-Profit KaBOOM! To Provide Innovative Play Equipment To Kids In Need.

 

It's your choice...it's the people's choice!

While we patiently await the next installment of Caprica, it's time to do our part again. This time it's up to us to vote for Caprica for a People's Choice award as your favorite sci-fi/fantasy show. If you want to see more of Alessandra, Magda, Polly, Luciana, Genevieve and Paula, it would really help if the show gains some recognition, and this would be a good start. So do your part!

As promised, photos from Alessandra Torresani's (and others) photo shoot for the Love is Louder campaign with Tyler Shields can be found here. And here's a preview:

 

Love is Louder!

Alessandra Torresani has been promoting the Love is Louder campaign recently on her Twitter account. The movement is one that aims to stop teenage bullying and describes itself as follows:

"Love is Louder was started by actress Brittany Snow, The Jed Foundation and MTV to build on the outpouring of support online after the lives of multiple teenagers were lost to suicide in September 2010. This movement strives to amplify the momentum of other inspiring online campaigns and invite anyone who has felt mistreated, misunderstood or isolated into the conversation. We are here to raise the volume around a critical message -- that love and support is more powerful than the external and internal voices that bring us down, cause us pain and make us feel hopeless."

It's a good cause and Alessandra promises us pictures tomorrow from an event that she was shooting in support today. In the meantime though, take a look at this preview picture and remember to follow her @BambolaBanbina.

Magda working hard...or hardly working?

It's good to see that NBC is supporting Caprica. As proof, here's a photo of Magda Apanowicz and company working on a podcast at NBC for the upcoming episode "The Dirteaters".

Paula Malcomson will guest star in "The Event"

NBC posted a blurb about the Octobter 25th episode of "The Event". It seems as if our own Paula Malcomson will guest star as "Madeline, mysterious conspiracy theorist..." So if you haven't been tuning in for that, here's a reason to start. More details can be found here.

An interview with Magda Apanowicz

TV Squad caught up with Magda Apanowicz and got some insight behind this season 1.5 - "When we last left 'Caprica' (which seems like ages ago), things were descending into chaos. At the center of the madness – the suicide attempt by Amanda, Zoe's rebellious escape, the U-187 – sits one linchpin of a character: Lacy Rand. Played by Canadian actor Magda Apanowicz, Lacy has grown from a background character into a crucial game-changer. Nearly every plot line hinges on her actions..."
