    I recognized her from the Bourne film - the girl in the Mini that drives him everywhere.

    Never watched them, so, I wouldn't know that... nice to know she's still working.
    Last thing I saw her in was "Blow".

    Yeah. I really like Franka Potenta as an actress. She also had a great turn on season 2 of The Bridge.

    She also played a somewhat similar character to Helga on "Copper".

    Only became aware of the show while watching Legion that I thought to myself - okay, Ridley Scott and Tom Hardy involved. Alright, I'm in. So far, I've only finished the first episode. Looks interesting enough so yes, I'll continue watching. Tom Hardy is undoubtedly one of the best actors out there today.
     
  10. Season Finale tonight. Just watched last weeks episode last night and anxiously anticipating the wrap up (and presumed cliff hanger) tonight.

    My wife looked it up last night and she says that as of now, there is no second season - BBC hasn't picked up the series for next year. Apparently the Show hasn't turned a profit and the Producers are holding out for more $$$ so they can turn a profit instead of losing money.

    Sure hope it continues. It's one of only 3-4 shows that I actually look forward to.

    With Hardy being as busy as he is, I never expected this series to be around for long.

    BBC confirms second season.
    With such high quality shows being produced on cable, why go to the movies anymore?
    What can you really do in 2 hours?

    It's not bad sorta There Will Be Blood meets Poldark.
    Hardy is the glue that holds Taboo together.

    Just finished what, S1 or did a S2 come out?

    I saw some videos of Jessie Buckley recently singing and she has a really nice voice. She's in some movie called "Wild Rose" where she plays a country music singer.

  19. I don't know what this series is about but if Hardy is on it and it's his creation I'll look for it to watch it.
    Does Venom have a good script? It's soo,but Hardy more than saves the movie and makes it funny, he nailed the character. The same on Mad Max Fury road. Hardy deserves more recognition.
