Thanks to Victoria, I have added 53 on set images of Taylor filming The Normal Heart in New York on June 11. As you can see, he’s sporting blonde locks for his role as the title character.

News broke out at the Tony’s yesterday evening about the filming of The Normal Heart.

Larry Kramer revealed to the Tony Awards audience tonight that director Ryan Murphy started filming THE NORMAL HEART for HBO in New York City today. Jim Parsons and Taylor Kitsch will star in the HBO film, alongside Julia Roberts, Mark Ruffalo and Matt Bomer in the cable network’s original movie adaptation of the Tony-winning Larry Kramer play.

Taylor Kitsch and Mark Wahlberg’s war drama Lone Survivor is being released in time for the 2014 Oscars. The film, which stars Taylor and Mark as US Naval officers, has been pushed forward to an American release date of December 27, which would allow it to qualify for the Academy Awards, reported Deadline.

Lone Survivor will then be rolled out across the States on January 10, and in the UK on February 21.

Taylor has admitted he feels “real pressure” to do justice to the real Michael Murphy with his performance.

“I’m excited and honoured to play Mike Murphy. He’s arguably one of the most honourable guys that has ever served,” he said.

“They named a destroyer after him, he has a congratulatory medal of honour. He basically gave his life up for the other three. It’s an incredible role.”

I’m really looking forward to seeing Taylor play this role, December is too far away though!

We have a new layout up done by Samantha, so a huge thank you goes out to her! I hope you all enjoy it! News has been rather slow with Taylor while he’s working on his projects so Jen and I will be working behind the scenes to catch things up and maybe unveil a surprise sometime this summer!

Jonathan Groff is just one of the recent stars to join the roster of Ryan Murphy’s HBO movie Normal Heart, he’ll be playing the love interest named Craig, an early victim of the disease and the first lover of Bruce Niles (Kitsch)

Also just cast: Broadway actor and director Joe Mantello as Mickey Marcus, a man who’s an instrumental member of the Gay Men’s Health Crisis.
The actors join previously announced cast members such as Julia Roberts (Dr. Emma Brookner), Mark Ruffalo (Ned Weeks), Matt Bomer (Felix Turner) and Jim Parsons (Tommy Boatwright). The Normal Heart is expected to premiere next year.

Last night, the minds and bodies behind the great Braverman clan took to the stage at PaleyFest to discuss everything from a potential season five to the reason why Mark and Sarah will never work and Tim Riggins.

Mae Whitman really wants Tim Riggins on the show: When asked if any more Friday Night Lights actors will be on the show, Katims said that it’s a possibility (assuming there’s a fifth season, obviously). The process is as follows: Step one: The writers create a character. Step two: The writers realize that a former-FNL actor might be a perfect fit. Step three: Jason Katims picks up the phone and “begs” the actor to come to Parenthood. Hey, it worked with Michael B. Jordan, Minka Kelly and Matt Lauria. Where you at, Taylor Kitsch?!
