Sure they can. Mhmm can't think of a good example now, besides the obvious ones (remakes, novel-adaptations)

Oh I was only referring to the
website Faran linked to in her first post. In the interview there, Lexa Doig says: "I was working nights… on “Fireball” (title may be changed) with Ian Somerhalder"
That had me joking with me twin earlier that if they change the title, it'll be something with Lost since Ian seems to be unable to get away from Lost (Lost Samaritan, Lost City Raiders, ... )

This definitely has me a little nervous. I was actually thinking that it'd be okay - I like Sci-Fi - and the people involved are experienced with TV Sci-Fi - Andromeda/SGA.
Hehe - Lost Fireball - keepin' the streak alive.

imdb has a synopsis up for the movie:

Inspector Ava Williams investigates a prison fire to its source, a prisoner seeking revenge against those who put him behind bars.
Lexi Doig is supposed to play Ava Williams. There's no info on Ian's character.

So.... Lee Cooper plays Ian... or what?

Or maybe Aleks Paunovic is playing Ian? Or is Ian playing Aleks Paunovic?



I *think* to see the whole movie you have to "Check your local listings for these great titles, or contact your local cable operator for details."

I just watched Fireball and should say it’s a good and well-done TV-movie. It’s much better that Lost Samaritan and Lost City Raider. I really enjoyed watching this film. In my opinion it has a nice cinematography and editing of high quality. Of cause, science aspect of plot is the craziest, but it stand out a mile. I was really flattered, when had seen purple stopper for test tubes, cause I have the same on my laboratory! Well, I have a strange reaction

Ian plays stylish and awfully funny FBI agent, you’ll really like him

His first appearance is awesome. I totally like this character.
PS Phew, no sex and no kisses…

I just watched this too. Some parts of it were hilarious bad, and the premise was kind of hokey. When the first two people died, the close up on their faces, and the look on their faces, reminded me of Attack of the Killer Tomatoes, so I definitely LOL'd at those. And the car chase at the beginning? They were the only two vehicles on any of the roads! And the truck driver the guy stole the clothes from wasn't anywherre near his size, though the garments fit perfectly...
That being said, Ian was pure gold! Every scene he had with Alexa was fantastic. The dialogue they were given was very witty and when delivered by two such stellar actors it was tight and spot on. I'd almost forgotten how fantastic Ian can be when he's given such an excellent actor to play off of. I've liked Alexa ever since Andromeda - when she was in avatar mode she was so snidely snarky - just my thing.
I'd highly recommend this. [old-man EDIT}--> THANKS, FARAN!

You mean "SyFy" (Seriously, why'd they have to do that?? How ridiculous.) Sadly, I don't get that channel, in Canada our scifi channel is Space, any word on a Canadian air date? I'd love to PVR this for my unlimited viewing enjoyment. And by enjoyment, I really, really mean that. This movie is funn with two N's.

I had the opportunity to watch Fireball last night and I was pretty entertained. there was so good dialog and I enjoyed the way Ian delivered his lines. There were some GREAT facial expression that got his point across. I admit I am not the biggest Sci Fi fan so the story line was not my normal stuff but all in all entertaining. Must say the poor kid had to get tired of wearing that same suit and shirt!

.BECKETT, that is what I was thinking and commenting on from halfway-to-finish: "They didn't spend a whole lot of money on 'wardrobe!"

That's really too bad, because the dialogue was both well written and well delivered.

Yeah, no kidding. The events in the movie took place over several days, yet he never changed his wardrobe. His character seemed kind of anal, so I wondered if he simply bought 6 of exactly the same thing.

i have to agree. I kept thinking he would show up in a pair of jeans and something casual at least maybe in the bowling alley but there was the same suit. It made me giggle a little bit. It was over all entertaining and the dialogue was pretty snappy. i enjoyed it. nice way to spend a sunday night.
