The Brothers & Sisters season four DVD was released today. I made screen caps of all the special features that feature Emily, which includes five deleted scenes, a blooper reel, and two featurettes.
I also edited and uploaded Emily’s segment from ‘The Red Carpet,’ which is a featurette that includes red carpet interviews from last year’s season four premiere party. You can watch it below!
I’ll try to upload all of Emily’s deleted scenes in the next week or two.
I added one more HQ pic of Emily on the set of Let Them Shine to the gallery. I also finally got around to making screen caps of the one and only gag reel scene featuring Emily from the Everwood season three DVD. Hopefully season four will offer a little more in terms of special features.
As I’m sure most of you already know, Emily will be leaving Brothers & Sisters next season. If you somehow didn’t know that yet, you can read all about it here. Anyways, Kristin at E! Online has reported that Emily will appear in episodes three and four of the upcoming fifth season, which obviously means she will not be in the first two episodes of the season. Not surprising, since Em was still shooting Let Them Shine when they were shooting the premiere. By my calculation, Emily’s episodes will air on October 10th and 17th, with the episode on the 17th being her last in the series.
Website Zap2it.com also posted an interesting article today about Emily’s impending departure from the show. WARNING: The article contains some spoilers about the upcoming season!
‘Brothers & Sisters’: How Emily VanCamp will depart the show By: Jethro Nededog
Fans were caught by surprise when news broke that Emily VanCamp is leaving “Brothers & Sisters.” The good news is that unlike Balthazar Getty, VanCamp will return for a couple episodes to wrap up Rebecca’s storyline.
“I think that what we are going to do is send Rebecca off in a very fitting and appropriate way that honors who she has been to us,” executive producer David Marshall Grant tells Zap2it.
Some new HQ pics of Emily on the set of Let Them Shine have been added to the gallery! Thanks to Carrie for the heads up on one of the pics. I also added a new on-set pic and still from Black Irish.
I’ve got some disappointing news today, guys. Or perhaps it’s good news, depending on how you felt about Emily starring in Breakaway. According to several sources, Emily is no longer attached to the project. I’m not sure exactly what happened. The reports are a bit vague and make it seem like Emily was never officially signed on to the film, but rather that they were simply considering her for the part in addition to other actresses. Here’s one of the articles about the situation:
A source close to Akshay says, “The producers were in talks with several Hollywood actresses. They also approached Camilla Belle, who starred in The Lost World: Jurassic Park and 10,000 B.C. Camilla loved the script and signed on to the film. Since she is a bigger star than Emily, it made more sense to cast her.”
Whatever the case, Emily will not be a part of the movie. Disappointing for sure, but I’m also a bit relieved. To be honest, in previous posts I was trying to be as optimistic as possible concerning the film’s plot. But I had serious doubts about how successful the film would be. While hockey is obviously very popular in Canada, it simply isn’t that popular a sport in the United States. And I just don’t think a movie about a Canadian Sikh hockey player will gross much money in the U.S. So, I admit I was worried it perhaps wasn’t the best career choice for Emily. I think she’ll be better off waiting for a much better project to come her way. We’ll just have to wait and see.
