Robert Philip

Patrick Dempsey continues playing detectives in the horror genre, joins Miami Pd in Dexter prequel Original Sin
Image
Apparently Patrick Dempsey really enjoys playing police detectives in the horror genre. The actor best known for playing neurosurgeon Derek Shepherd for 11 seasons on Grey's Anatomy is stepping into a police uniform again for the upcoming Dexter prequel series Original Sin.

Variety reports that he'll play series regular Captain Aaron Spencer of Miami Metro Homicide. Spencer shares an important connection to Dexter's adoptive father, Harry Morgan, who will be played by Christian Slater. The press release only described their relationship as one that has spanned several decades but doesn't elaborate on whether it's friendly or antagonistic in nature.

Prior to landing this role, Dempsey played Detective Mark Kincaid in Scream 3 and, more recently, Sheriff Eric Newlon in the 2023 slasher film Thanksgiving. For whatever reason, it seems like he's drawn to the police force on-screen! Outside of horror, Dempsey also recently reprised his role as Robert Philip in the Enchanted...

What Has Amy Adams Been Up To Since Catch Me If You Can?
Image
Amy Adams had a small appearance in the 2002 biopic Catch Me If You Can as lawyer Roger Strong's (Martin Sheen) daughter Brenda, and the actor's career has become more successful each year since, spanning comedies, musicals, and Oscar-nominated films. Brenda works at a hospital and is a sweet girl who gets engaged to the movie's protagonist, which is con artist Frank Abagnale (Leonardo DiCaprio). The film is known for its famous cast, including Tom Hanks, James Brolin, and Christopher Walken. The movie also stands out because it contains minor roles played by the likes of Adams, Ellen Pompeo, and Jennifer Garner.

While Catch Me If You Can is known as a movie Leonardo DiCaprio starred in rather than an Amy Adams vehicle, the actor has become more famous in the decades since. After her first movie role in 1999's Drop Dead Gorgeous, she had several one-episode appearances on Charmed...

In 2007’s Enchanted, Patrick Dempsey played the suitor to Amy Adams’s animated-turned-human princess. (Spoiler alert: They get their “happily ever after” wedding at the end of the movie.) The events of the new sequel, Disenchanted, pick up with Dempsey and Adams’s character still happily married 10 years later and leaving Manhattan for a quieter suburban life. It had been a long time since the two actors had worked with each other, but Dempsey told us that — aside from Covid protocol complications — they pretty much picked up where they left off.

Why the Role of Morgan Was Recast For Disney's "Disenchanted"
Image
The highly anticipated "Enchanted" sequel, "Disenchanted," has finally arrived on Disney+, 15 years after the original was released in 2007. "Enchanted" alum Amy Adams (Giselle), Patrick Dempsey (Robert Philip), James Marsden (Prince Edward), and Idina Menzel (Nancy Tremaine) all return for the new film, which also features newcomer Gabby Baldacchino as Robert's daughter, Morgan Philip. Rachel Covey played the character in the original movie, so you may be wondering - why was she recast? Let's investigate.

Why Was Morgan Recast in Disney's "Disenchanted"?

According to the film's synopsis, "Disenchanted" takes place 15 years after the events of the original movie. Giselle and Robert are now married and decide to move from New York to the suburb of Monroeville with their teenage daughter, Morgan. There, Giselle "must juggle the challenges that come with a new home and discover what happily ever after truly means to her and her new family."

‘Disenchanted’ (2022) – A Disney Movie Starring Amy Adams- Review: Diffuse
Image
Disenchanted is a multi-genre musical movie starring Amy Adams and Patrick Dempsey. This sequel to Enchanted (2007) is directed by Adam Shankman.

With the customary Disney production quality, a great lead actress, and cast, with as much irony as there is sweet, sweet, sweetness, we are offered a movie that aims to laugh at itself, and will appease the most eeeevil of cynics among us.

Premise

This is a story of what happens after the “happily ever after”. Giselle is married and seemingly happy in New York. Life starts to take a toll, after years of marriage, becoming a mother, the humdrum of it all simply is dull. But then, she sees a sign, a billboard advertising Monroeville. Without hesitation Robert and Giselle decide to relocate to that idyllic and magical suburban town that reminds her oh so much of Andalasia.

With extra emphasis on pastel colors the setting is just darling,...

Disenchanted New Cast & Returning Character Guide

Warning: This post contains minor spoilers for Disenchanted

Disenchanted’s new cast and returning character guide. A direct sequel to 2007’s hit musical fantasy Enchanted, Disenchanted picks up years after the events of the first film. While many of the main cast from Enchanted return for this Disney+ sequel, there are plenty of new characters who make their own mark on the franchise.

Disney+ has been sprucing up its library, leaning on sequels to beloved classics, including Hocus Pocus 2. Disenchanted comes 15 years after the original film, which saw Giselle of Andalasia get a big dose of reality when she lands in New York and realizes that life may not be the easy happily ever after she once expected it to be. Giselle is older and wiser in Disenchanted, but she still craves some of that good old fairy tale bliss. To bring the sequel’s story to life, the film,...

Maya Rudolph reveals why audience will love 'Disenchanted'
Image
Hollywood actress-comedian Maya Rudolph, who plays the villain Malvina in the musical fantasy film ‘Disenchanted’, feels the film’s honesty about domestic life will resonate with the audience.

Elaborating on the same, she said, “I think people will love ‘Disenchanted’ for its honesty about domestic life. Giselle (played by Amy Adams) is well-intentioned in her efforts to create a fairytale life for her family, but life cannot always be a fairytale. Through it all, it is just important to think about all the little moments we take for granted with people special to us.”

Amy Adams, who essays the role of Giselle Philip, feels that change is a natural process and is the only constant, ironically.

Sharing her thoughts on the movie, Amy Adams said, “It’s about understanding that change is a natural part of life. And the more we fight change and try to return to who we were,...

Ellen Pompeo Crashes Patrick Dempsey Interview, Which Then Goes Delightfully Off the Rails (Video)
Patrick Dempsey
Patrick Dempsey was doing a quickie interview on the D23 Expo red carpet when he was interrupted by a familiar face to both him and his fans — his “Grey’s Anatomy” costar, Ellen Pompeo. And a playful exchange ensued.

When Pompeo popped up behind Dempsey and began to talk, he grabbed the mic from Yahoo!’s Kevin Polowy and flipped from the interviewee to the interviewer.

“Hi, everybody. I am on the red carpet here with Yahoo! interviewing the legendary Ellen Pompeo,” he said directly into the camera as she laughed and threw her arm around his shoulder. “Ellen, what does it feel like to be a legend?”

“Well, I thought we were already legends, but I am really happy that we are officially legends,” she smiled, prompting Dempsey to confirm, yes, it’s official.

Image
The long-anticipated sequel to “Enchanted” is almost here! The trailer to the sequel dropped Friday at Disney’s D23 Expo, and it promises life’s not always a fairytale in the suburbs.

The trailer opens with Amy Adams as Giselle, a princess that finds her way from her animated fairy-tale land into the real world finding herself in the suburbs of Monroeville and married to Robert Philip (Patrick Dempsey).

James Marsden, who played Giselle’s daft fairy-tale prince — and who ends up with Robert’s ex, Nancy (Idina Menzel) — in the first film, told Et last fall that he was excited to return to the role.

“They have been talking about making it for years,” said Marsden, who’s reprising his role of Prince Edward. “I got my hopes up many times before and recently I was like, ‘Sure, sure, they’re going to make it.’ And last year they said,...

Image
Disney has released the official trailer for the “Enchanted” sequel, “Disenchanted,” set to premiere exclusively on Disney+ Nov. 24.

Six-time Academy Award-nominated star Amy Adams reprises her role as the beloved Giselle from the 2007 rom-com. Patrick Dempsey, James Marsden and Idina Menzel also return for the sequel, with Jayma Mays, Oscar Nuñez, Yvette Nicole Brown, Gabrielle Baldacchino and Maya Rudolph joining the cast.

“Disenchanted” takes place 15 years after Giselle and Robert’s happily ever after, in which the couple and Robert’s daughter Morgan (Gabrielle Baldacchino) move to the suburbs.

“To work with everybody again after 14 years is just really exciting,” Dempsey told Variety in April of 2021. “We need some escapism right now. We...

Children Shouldn't Play with Dead Things (1973) Review
Reviewed By: Chris Wright, Morehorror.com

Directed By: Bob Clark

Written By: Bob Clark & Alan Ormsby

Starring: Alan Ormsby (Alan), Valerie Mamches (Val), Jeff Gillen (Jeff), Anya Ormsby (Anya), Paul Cronin (Paul), Jane Daly (Terry), Roy Engleman (Roy), Robert Philip (Emerson), Bruce Solomon (Winns), Alecs Baird (Caretaker), Seth Sklarey (Orville)

Long before Bob Clark brought his name to fame in the horror community with “Black Christmas”, he put out a much lower budgeted flick in this third directorial debut with “Children Shouldn’t Play with Dead Things.” This movie was a pleasant little surprise to me as when I hear horror movies are “comedies” they are hits and misses. I am not the biggest fan of horror comedies thankfully this wasn’t what I thought it was at all. It was more morbid than anything else.

The movie is about a small group of unemployed actors lead by Alan (Alan Ormsby...
