‘On Broadway’ & ‘Film School’ on Hulu
Just a heads up that Eliza's little indie movie, On Broadway, is now available to watch on Hulu as well as her recent episode from FOX's Life After Film School. Both are only available to US residents sadly, but nevertheless, do enjoy!
‘Bottle Shock’ DVD Captures
Better late than never; Bottle Shock was released on Region 2 DVD last month (July) and I was finally able to see it for myself -- Eliza only has a small role & is therefore only in a few scenes but it's a wonderful gem of a movie and highly recommended.
Thus, over 200 HQ DVD screencaptures from the movie and it's extras have been added to the gallery; links and previews are below, enjoy!

‘Open Graves’ Premiere!
Dread Central has posted a premiere date for Open Graves, which completed production back in 2007; an extract from the article is posted below.
Remember that Eliza Dushku movie about a group of surfers finding a cursed board game that claims a life whenever played? It seems like we've been reporting about Open Graves for a couple years now. That might be because we have. We last reported on it this past February, quoting Dushku herself as being unsure if or when the film would see the light of day. How does September 19th on Syfy sound?
For those of you dying to see Eliza Dushku wet and in peril after playing a board game made from the skin and bones of a witch executed during the Spanish Inquisition, set your Tivo's and DVR's for Saturday night, September 19th, at 9/8 Central.
Possible New Project?
The Names Blog at The Boston Globe posted a little titbit about a possible new film role for Eliza last week (June 16) -- though I'm pretty sure filming is halfway done & Eliza started filming the new series of Dollhouse this month so don't get your hopes up.
The short article is posted below.
It's hard to slow Eliza Dushku down. At 28, the actress reckons she's been to 30 countries, including, most recently, a trip to Uganda to meet with former child soldiers attempting to reintegrate themselves into society. But even when she's sitting still, as she was yesterday with boyfriend Rick Fox at the Capital Coffee House on Beacon Hill, Dushku's mind is elsewhere. "I'm wearing my green today," said the "Dollhouse" star, showing solidarity for Iran's Green Revolution. "It's a bra, but that's OK." Dushku, who grew up in Watertown, has been in town shooting "Valediction," a psychological thriller in which she plays a temptress. (The target of her affection? A married man played by "Chronicles of Narnia" actor Ben Barnes.) "On paper, it's 'Fatal Attraction' and 'Black Widow,'" she said. "But when we shot it, Ben's character was more redeeming." Dushku is returning to LA today to begin work on season two of Joss Whedon's "Dollhouse," and to get cracking on a biopic of famed photographer Robert Mapplethorpe. Her company Boston Diva Productions is producing, and the actress's brother Nate is set to star. "We're working with the Mapplethorpe estate and Patti Smith is interested," said Dushku. (It'll be the first feature from "DiG!" director Ondi Timoner, whose most recent film "We Live in Public" bowled over the actress and her baller boyfriend.) Is Eliza intimidated to be producing? "I've been in this business now for 18 years, I've taken some notes," she said. "I can't settle for showing up and looking pretty." We may see her again soon: She just read for the part of a tough-talking Charlestown chick in "The Town."

Details on ‘Valediction’
Hollywood Crush at MTV.com recently spoke to Eliza about her new movie, Valediction, where Eliza revealed more about the story (Loaded Gun got a few details wrong), her character, and the rest of the cast. The movie is slated for a theater release next year.
Extracts from the article are posted below, enjoy!
“It’s about this young couple and they have a 6-year-old daughter, seemingly in a coma, but [they learn] she’s actually alive and fully living out in her brain, but is just in this locked-in state,” Eliza explains. “So he’s trying to have his daughter wake up from this traumatic experience.”
The film centers around a car accident Josh (Ben) has which leaves his daughter Brooke in a coma. But there’s more to the crash than meets the eye, according to Eliza, who adds that the film is being characterized as a “contemporary psychological thriller.”
Eliza plays Renee, Josh’s former co-worker who he had an affair with. Josh, who left his advertising gig to settle down with his wife (Sarah Roemer) and daughter, is feeling trapped by his life when the film begins — right before Renee reenters into his life, and the accident occurs.
“[Josh] sort of meets up with Renee and wonders what would have happened if he went that route. It really is about his struggle both with these women in his life and then with his daughter who’s been injured,” notes Eliza. “It turns into a really psychological chaos.”
The film is directed by Suri Krishnamma and will co-star Brenda Fricker, Johnny Whitworth and Dennis Haysbert. Eliza said it was a combination of the script, Krishnamma and her castmates that cemented her desire to be in the film.
“It just seemed to me that there weren’t stories that were about young people but were adults that were dealing with these struggles,” she said of her new project, which is slated to hit theaters next year. “It seemed to me like a more sophisticated character that I wanted to sort of take a stab at.”

‘The Perfect Moment’ Confirmed
Thanks to the same article at Loaded Gun, we also have confirmation of the identity of The Perfect Moment -- it's the title of the Mapplethorpe biopic; an extract is posted below.
Up next for Dushku is the biopic called "The Perfect Moment" on iconic photographer Robert Mapplethorpe, who died of AIDS in 1989 at age 42 before posthumously snagging national headlines in the '90s for his highly stylized black-and-white portraits of naked men and oddly erotic flowers.
The Bring It On beauty has cast her brother, Nate, as the controversial photographer. "Nate physically has an uncanny resemblance to Robert," she says to E! Online. "Some pictures are really eerie."
Sundance winner Ondi Timoner has signed on to direct.
Sounds like Eliza shall be busy! I'm certainly looking forward to both of these projects.
