I just found this video that Universal Studios made for Eric Olsen to promote The Thing…. What is it? bit.ly/qilYIK
Welcome to the TV.com Forums for Eric Christian Olsen. Here is your area to discuss, dissect and debate all things about this person.
Plus: Survivor pits fogeys versus whippersnappers, a new buxom American Idol judge rumor, and CBS goes gay!
Let's face it, Hollywood isn't exactly only for talented actors. Several stars weasel their way into the showbiz elite with luck and a good headshot rather than ability. But there are a whole group of people who have been in the business who haven't got their fair shake. But that's about to change. Here are 10 actors we think are poised for stardom (we'll get to the ladies in a later edition).
The major networks spent much of the last month announcing new project, pilots, and productions, and now they're finally getting around to announcing who will be in them. First up, a rapper-turned-actor is now confirmed to be one of the stars of CBS' NCIS spinoff.
A Human Giant lands role in NBC's anticipated comedy; Angelina's dad will be Jack Bauer's bad guy.
.... his biography says. Well, that's more than evident considering that he can't act. He's the rough copy of NCIS's Tony Di Nozzo - always funny (funny?), always kidding, so incredibly unbearable. Of course, he can improve. Of course, because he can't go worse, he surely can't.
Olsen is surprising. Given his movie choices, one might be able to miss the fact that he's actually talented. Playing either a goof or an attractive teen, he's been typecasted as such. But, in those roles, he's become the person he's playing and the transformation has been interesting to see. I'd like to see him take a more dramatic turn or at least graduate from the teen comedies. He was the bright spot in Kirstie Alley's semi-decent tv movie "Write and Wrong." Hopefully, he can continue doing work that puts him with an older crowd. I know there's more there. He just hasn't had a chance to show it.
