"It’s been a treat watching this very special
group of actors bond off camera. You can see on the show how that
has translated into some cool subtle stuff between the characters.
It’s the kind of thing you can’t write and you can’t direct. It’s a
chemistry that only the actors can bring." 

Dean Devlin

Excerpt from a recent Bill Engvall interview from the Paducah Sun:
He continued his
TV career this summer with a guest appearance on TNT’s “Leverage.”Engvall
played a crooked car dealer.“That was awesome,” Engvall said. “I
got to point guns at people and drive fast cars.” Dream jobs seek
... him out these days..."

 

  
  
From Tim's Twitvid:
TIM: What are we doing?
CHRISTIAN:
Are you recording? Oh, we’re going to Parker’s ...place to find out just
how f***ing weird she really is.
GINA: You
can’t put that online; he just swore!

 

  
  
  

Excerpt from an article by Kate O'Hare at Zap2It


"As far as Kane's own musical career, he recently released a five-song EP, with a full
album on the way. The first single, "The House Rules," is due out in
September.

...Also in the pipeline is a video
for the single, directed by none other than "Leverage" star Tim
Hutton (and featuring a guest appearance by "Leverage" regular Aldis
Hodge). At least part of the video was
filmed on June 12 at Dante's, a club in Portland, Ore., the city
where "Leverage" is filmed.

"A lot of people don't know that Tim
directed 'Drive,' by The Cars," says Kane. "I told him about a concept,
and he polished it up. He directed the video, and Tim's son, Noah
Hutton, actually cut the video. I just showed it to some guys at
CMT, and they love it. We're on our way."

Part of tha Aldis Hode/IF Magazine interview:
"iF: Is there anything you can’t do?

HODGE: I can’t do a backflip, which I’m going to go learn how to
do some time later this year."

 

  
  
  
  

“People really want them to get together,” she[Beth Riesgraf] said. “But if they did,
people would be really disappointed. If it happens too fast, it doesn’t
work. I think that the writers are being really smart about it. There’s
enough there to play with and they definitely have chemistry, but you
have to ride this on...e out, I think.”

 

  
  

Leverage Season 1 is out on DVD in the UK on
Monday, September 6th.

 

  
  
  

Someone called Eliot's and Harison's bromance as ....."ELDISON"!!

 

  
  
  
  
  

Christian Kane:"Doing my own stunts is both a blessing and a curse. But I wouldn’t
change it for the world. Everybody’s kids on set wanna be Eliot; they
think I’m Batman. I can’t let ‘em down."

In June 2009, authorities allege, Stone and his youngest son David Stone Jr. began teaching other Hutaree how to make and use the explosives. They were to have been used against law enforcement officials as they drove in the funeral procession for the first officer they intended to kill as bait.

 

  

[Leverage 1.05 - The Bank Shot Job]From DEAN
DEVLIN: "He [Derrick] says “is your team good?” and Tim has to say
“The best”, so when we did Tim’s close-up, I whispered in the actor
[Mark Doerr]’s ear, and I had him say ...“Your
son, in Paris, he’s good? and he [Tim Hutton] said “The best” and
...you can tell he’s talking about someone he really, really loves..."

"For instance, Gina [Bellman] chose her own —
she chose Sophie’s name, her real name, whatever it turns out to be.
And a lot of background stuff is coming out about her character
this year. It’s yet to come out, but it will. It was created by
Gina, but in discussion with Gina things came out that she had
...incorporated i...nto her back-story that John was like,

“This is a true story, this song. I had this girl, lived next door
to me, and she had this guy that wasn’t very nice to her living with
her, and so…I used to hear them fighting all the time, and she, you
know, she was- it seemed like she was always crying an...d stuff like
that, and I could hear her, I could hear them fighting and him throwing
her around and stuff, so, I went over and politely knocked on the
door, and then politely beat the shit out of him. True story. This girl
never talked to me again, but I don’t care ‘cause they broke up after
that…” - Christian Kane

Season 3 cast Interviews from Comic Con.

 

LEVERAGE TO HAVE RPG GAME 

The LEVERAGE Role Playing Game puts you in the middle of a dysfunctional but highly-specialized group of con-artists, criminals, and crooks who are trying to turn over a new leaf. You protect the victims of corporations, mobsters, and corrupt politicians by using your expert skills to outwit and overcome the real bad guys.

Using the award-winning Cortex System as its foundation, the Leverage RPG includes all the rules you need to create a team of rogues, plan a job, and get it done... even if it means going to Plan B.

LEVERAGE GETS A FOURTH SEASON 

TNT has enjoyed tremendous success on
Sunday and Monday nights with LEVERAGE, THE CLOSER and RIZZOLI
& ISLES,” says Michael Wright, executive vice president and
head of programming for TNT, TBS and Turner Classic Movies (TCM).“All
