Stefan and Elena's Struggles, the Originals and More Vampire Diaries Spoilers

Paul Wesley Slap on your flapper dresses and tailcoat tuxedos. The Vampire Diaries is flashing back to the roaring '20s. In Thursday's episode, Stefan (Paul Wesley) will revisit a piece of his past, one in which he doesn't actually remember (thank goodness for diaries!), but is filled with blood and a serious disregard for human life and emotions. How horrifying is it? Let's just say that next to Ripper Stefan, Klaus (Joseph Morgan) actually looks pretty tame. Vampire Diaries' Ian Somerhalder Says Damon Is, Like, So Pissed As Damon (Ian Somerhalder) and Elena (Nina Dobrev) attempt to track him down, they'll be faced with their own set of problems; namely, what could possibly bring him back from the brink of maniacal bloodlust? Plus, new friends and old foes return. Get the scoop on Vampire Diaries' trip to the '20s below, along with Caroline's (Candice Accola) fate, the Originals and Jeremy's (Steven R. McQueen) ghost issues. 1. Ripper's trip to the '20s: Before Stefan discovers why doesn't remember his experiences in the era by the end of the episode, he'll revisit his time there as he and Klaus travel to Chicago in an attempt to contact a witch who may hold the key to why Klaus can't create new hybrids. In doing so, we'll find out why Stefan really is important in the long run. "One of the big questions that we left last year with was why Klaus took such an interest in Stefan, Stefan specifically of all people," executive producer Julie Plec says. "What we really wanted to do was show the roots of Klaus' character as it relates to his family, the people that he's known for 1,000 years and been with off and on for 1,000 years that we notoriously know that he's daggered one by one and carted around in coffins." 2. The Originals, resurrected: The family will be popping in and out this season, but don't expect to see all of them. "That was our intention until we did the math and realized we've said there's seven children, and that's a lot of new people to bring into the story," Plec says. "The mother is going to be someone we meet in the past, as well as other siblings and we'll see Elijah [Daniel Gillies] again." 3. Elena's mission to save Stefan: Stefan and Elena will finally come face-to-face. "This episode is a big deal for the Stefan and Elena relationship," Plec says. "In her plucky little heart... she's a compassionate savior of her friends and loved ones. I really do think she believes it is as easy as just getting him out of that environment." Unfortunately, it's not that easy. We'll see Elena "as she struggles with her desire to help rescue this hero in her life... but also the realities of learning the lesson that you can't necessarily let yourself be consumed in your own life by saving someone else's." 4. Old foes return: "We get to learn some old, old secrets and return to play with some old friends-slash-foes," Plec teases of Thursday's episode. We're sworn to secrecy not to reveal exactly who is returning, but he or she will appear in both the past and present. Vampire Diaries' Wesley: Damon Is a Puppy In Comparison to What Stefan Is Morphing Into 5. Caroline gets tortured: If you thought Klaus was heartless when it came to his family, that's nothing in comparison to Caroline's dad (Jack Coleman), who takes to torturing her in an attempt to break her of her blood lust. "It's a story about a parent thinking they know best for their child," Plec says, and in this case, father does not know best. 6. Ghostly appearances: While Jeremy doesn't appear in Thursday's episode, his visions of dead girlfriend Vicki (Kayla Ewell) and Anna (Malese Jow), who are seemingly at odds, will come back in full force the following week. "There is an agenda happening with our ghosts that isn't just, 'Hey, I want to make amends with my loved ones,'" Plec says. "We're [also] going to see the emotional consequences of Bonnie [Katerina Graham] bringing Jeremy back to life, which is that it's put a rift in her romantic relationship with him. Our arc is to see what the ghostly and supernatural consequences are. We go all out in Halloween and have ourselves some fun. It's not Halloween in the show, but we still do an episode where we get to have a little fun with ghosts and really pay off that chapter." Plus: Plec notes that Jeremy seeing dead people is not limited to just Anna and Vicki. 7. The Council divided: The discovery that Caroline is a vampire and Tyler (Michael Trevino) is a werewolf will have consequences on the Council, those sworn to protect Mystic Falls from the supernatural. "There's a couple juicy Council moments coming up," Plec says. "For those of you that follow the moves of the council and their glorious incompetencies, next week showcases that beautifully. Next week, it's like, 'Wait a second, who actually on this council is not somehow carrying a secret for their child that are supposed to be the very people we are fighting against?'" Photo Gallery: TV's Sexiest Eye Candy 8. Matt's struggles: Matt's (Zach Roerig) issues with the supernatural nature of Mystic Falls will come to a head in the fifth episode. "It's set the weekend before senior year begins, and it's an annual tradition of senior prank night and things, of course, goes horribly wrong," Plec says. "For Matt, specifically, it's kind of bittersweet because... there was a sense of life he's had that he's really lost over the two seasons of our show and it's really hurting him. We get to explore that in a beautiful and tragic way." Plus, Plec adds, "Matt's gotta get laid this year, for sure, because he just needs that. He needs love." We can get on board with that. You? Sound off in the comments on what you'd like to see for the vamps, wolves, witches and other things that go bump in the night. The Vampire Diaries airs Thursdays at 8/7c on The CW.

Le Carre sons spy opportunity

Simon and Stephen CornwellWorking Title's "Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy" is the eighth John le Carre novel to reach the bigscreen, starting back in 1965 with "The Spy Who Came in from the Cold."Now the author's two sons, Stephen and Simon Cornwell, are bidding to increase that number through their own production company the Ink Factory, which they launched last year."We didn't set off with the intention of getting involved in my father's stuff, but he found out about it when he was writing his last book, and he suggested we take it on," says Simon, a London-based digital entrepreneur.Stephen is an L.A.-based screenwriter whose credits include "Unknown." Their slate now includes their father's three most recent thrillers -- "Our Kind of Traitor," "A Most Wanted Man" and "The Mission Song" -- in partnership with Gail Egan of Potboiler Films, who produced the 2005 version of le Carre's "The Constant Gardener.""A Most Wanted Man," scripted by Andrew Bovell and to be directed by Anton Corbijn, is on course to shoot next spring. This $15 million spy story, developed with Film4, is set in Hamburg, whose film fund has already granted it $1.3 million."Our Kind of Traitor" is being scripted by Hossein Amini ("Drive"), and "The Mission Song" by James Bond film writers Neal Purvis and Rob Wade.Although Le Carre has stayed on the bestseller lists throughout his 50-year writing career, the acclaim for the Tomas Alfredson-helmed "Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy" has put the 79-year-old spymaster right back in the spotlight. The original 1974 novel jumped back onto the U.K. charts last week, coinciding with the film's $4.4 million opening weekend via Studiocanal." 'Tinker Tailor' has clearly re-established John le Carre in people's minds," says Simon. "It's also a really good, interesting and brave film, so from my point of view it sets the bar very high, but also shows just how good a movie you can make if you really commit."Le Carre has an executive producer credit on Working Title's film ("thoroughly earned," his son notes), and is just as involved with the projects being developed by Ink Factory. "Financially we're all in it together," says Simon. "He likes to be available as a resource to the scriptwriters, but he also hands people the flexibility to do it their way. He says don't make a film of the book, make a film of the film."But Ink Factory isn't just about le Carre. The company is developing an L.A. thriller, "Message to the King," by Stephen and his writing partner Oliver Butcher, which FilmNation is financing and James McTeigue is attached to direct. Cornwell and Butcher are also writing an untitled action thriller for Vin Diesel, to be co-produced by Ink Factory and Diesel's shingle One Race.A handful of of other projects are still under wraps. "The common thread through everything is that they are thrillers oriented towards the international market," says Simon Cornwell.As the slate ramps up, the Ink Factory is expanding its staff in London and Los Angeles. "We are quite ambitious," Cornwell says. "We would like to grow to become one of the larger players in the European independent media sector, but of course we're very conscious of the fact we have to get our first project, our second project and our third project off the ground and onto the screen."

Schmidt to look at Senate Judiciary Committee

When Google's Eric Schmidt seems before a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing on Wednesday to reply to antitrust questions, the entertainment lobby is going to be watching -- and it is likely which more than a couple of within the biz will harbor a sense of satisfaction in seeing him within the hotseat.Google's relationship with Hollywood has sometimes been chilly, but among insurance supporters in Washington it's frequently a lot more like permafrost, because the industry lobby complaints the search giant has not done nearly enough to combat piracy, or in some instances is aiding and abetting it. Industry insurance supporters are earning some effort to influence congress around the Senate antitrust subcommittee to question Schmidt about copyright issues, however the session is centered on concerns that Google is continuing to grow to some extent where rivals are in a disadvantage.Schmidt is scheduled to talk first, then a panel which includes Shaun Katz, Boss of NexTag, and Jeremy Stoppelman, co-founder and Boss of Yelp."Anybody within the bigger entertainment industries has needed to cope with antitrust issues," stated Chris Castle, a music and technology lawyer. "They've had their mergers and purchases looked at. You will find there's lengthy history within the entertainment business of coping with government. So the concept that a business could generate a lot of money without needing to take into account what many people see are pretty egregious weak points is frustrating." "The truth that he's decided to testify...I believe is the start of something, but it's just the beginning," he added.Prior to the hearing, Google provides your blog page refuting the idea it's the all pervading gateway towards the web. "Using Bing is an option. Sure, Google is loaded with lots of customers, but Bing is a lot more like a Gps navigation for the net -- a useful guide, although not essential to circumvent,Inch the publish mentioned, observing that sites once-thriving America online and Bebo were also once known as "gatekeepers."Schmidt is in opposition to the most important bit of Hollywood-backed legislation in the future before Congress this season, the Safeguard IP Act, that is targeted in the reducing support for "rogue" sites which are dedicated to trafficking in unlicensed content. The Senate version includes a provision that needs that "information location tools," like search engines like google, take measures to get rid of or disable use of "rogue" sites and also to remove hypertext links, But Schmidt has known as the suggested legislation "simple methods to complex problems," and stated the bill's approach to reducing illegal sites' use of the domain title system had free speech implications.Nonetheless, for a while Google continues to be knowledgeable that it's an growing target, and it has broadened its lobbying presence within the Capital. In April, Google's general counsel Kent Master faced a home hearing by which he needed to battle critique from some congress that the organization hadn't done enough to limit report on unlicensed content atop search engine results as well as in its autocomplete feature. Master was adamant that Google continues to be playing "the Whac-A-Mole game" around others, but he informed Congress not to overload in mandating what search engines like google can and can't do.Late this past year, Google introduced a number of steps to combat online violation, together with a vow to do something within 24 hrs on takedown notices it receives from copyright proprietors and removing terms carefully connected with violation from showing up in autocomplete. On Sept. 2, Master published a progress set of a Google blog by which he stated, amongst other things, they have enhanced methods to make certain that it is AdSense program does not show up on sites with unlicensed content, which legitimate music sites are becoming greater visibility. "There's plenty more to become done, and that we anticipate further refining and enhancing our processes with techniques which help both rightsholders and customers," Master authored.It Industry Assn. of America, however, found the progress wanting. "We appreciate that Bing is dealing with us to build up something to transmit Google bulk notices about using AdSense on sites that facilitate online thievery," authored Steven Marks, the RIAA's executive v . p . and general counsel. "However, because of the significant benefits Google receives from all of these services and it is obligations through the official recommendations that regulate marketers, Google must do more to make sure that it doesn't place and make money from advertisements on sites that provide illegal content." He added that Google is constantly on the list unauthorized sites before legitimate ones searching results, and, although it has enhanced how quickly it responds to takedown notices, it has not been "good at terminating repeat culprits."

Ted Turner To Rupert Murdoch: Resign

Can News Corp Escape Scandal Untouched? There’s hardly any good blood stream between Ted Turner and Rupert Murdoch (maybe Turner challenging Murdoch for just about any fist fight once has something associated with that), but nevertheless, Turner’s suggestion that Murdoch step lower from News Corp for that organization’s role inside the Uk phone-hacking scandal makes permanently TV. Bloomberg TV had the interview (the Murdoch stuff begins within the 4:58 mark). “He hasn’t managed to get anything similar to this,” Turner mentioned of his longtime rival.

Chuck Lorre Speaks Out About Charlie Sheen: We Were Concerned Our Friend Was Gonna Die

LOS ANGELES, Calif. -- As Two and a Half Men prepares to return to primetime after a headline-raising few months surrounding the firing of series star Charlie Sheen earlier this year, creator Chuck Lorre told Access Hollywood that the well documented, behind-the-scenes moves were always aimed at helping the actor. We were concerned with our friends well-being. That was the whole thing, Chuck told Access Hollywood as he celebrated Jon Cryers star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame on Monday. We were concerned our friend was gonna die, and everything we did was hopefully to keep that from happening. Cryer too paid a heartfelt tribute to Chuck and Two and a Half Men co-creator Lee Aronsohn in his Walk of Fame star speech, for helping Charlie out. I feel the need to thank Chuck Lorre and Lee Aronsohn, who, when they saw somebody who clearly was in distress, took every possible means to try and help their friend and who when it came time to make the ultimate decision, which is some place that nobody wanted to go, did something thatin my belief, saved my friend Charlie Sheens life, Jon said on stage in Hollywood on Monday afternoon. And I am grateful to them it is an honor that I will never take for granted that I work in this industry. During the heated conflict between Sheen and Lorre earlier this year, Lorre often turned to expressing his emotions on his famous vanity cards, which come up at the end of every Two and a Half Men episode. But, when the show returns tonight at 9/8 C on CBS, Lorre told Access it wont be a freeze-it-and-read-it moment. I dont think itll be necessary, he said of hitting pause on the television. Its pretty simple. Lorre said hes also eager for fans to see the retooled show with Ashton Kutcher. I am beyond excited that its gonna air tonight. Please let it air already, he told Access. Its been a long time in gestation. Weve been working on it for months.Copyright 2011 by NBC Universal, Inc.

Hysteria

An Informant Media and Forthcoming Films production in association with Beachfront Films and Chimera Films. (International sales: Elle Driver, Paris.) Produced by Sarah Curtis, Judy Cairo, Tracey Becker. Executive producers, Michael A. Simpsons, Eric Brenner, Ken Atchity, Sandra Siegel, Leo Joseph, Nathalie Joseph, Mark Kress, Hakan Kousetta, Claudia Blumhuber, Florian Dargel, Peter Fudakowski, Stephen Dyer. Directed by Tanya Wexler. Screenplay, Stephen Dyer, Jonah Lisa Dyer.With: Hugh Dancy, Maggie Gyllenhaal, Jonathan Pryce, Felicity Jones, Rupert Everett, Ashley Jensen, Sheridan Smith, Gemma Jones, Anna Chancellor, Malcolm Rennie, Kim Criswell, Georgie Glen, Elisabet Johannesdottir.Tanya Wexler's "Hysteria" feels much like what would result if one took the conceptual gist of Sara Ruhl's sublimely witty play "In the Next Room," put it through committee-driven script development, and aimed for the kind of boisterous costume crowdpleaser that congratulates its audience for enjoying such refined entertainment even as it panders. This fictive comedy about the real-life use of vibrators to treat Victorian ladies' "hysterical" disorders will attract enough positive notices from the usual suspects to support ads suggesting critical consensus. But the overcalculated pic could earn a quick ancillary exit just as easily as sleeper success. The winking tone is set by the coy announcement "This story is based on true events. Really." Fledging physician Mortimer Granville (Hugh Dancy) is introduced being fired from his latest 1880s London post for once again insisting on progressive medical ideas (like hospital hygiene) at time when leeches and bleeding are still accepted treatments. Desperate for a job, he lands at the door of Dr. Dalrymple (Jonathan Pryce), who is doing a booming business among genteel ladies afflicted with "hysteria" -- a blanket term for practically any female complaint, especially psychological. Dalrymple's method consists of having them lay down on a table, bare legs parted behind a discreet puppet-theater curtain, and manually massaging their privates to release "nervous tension." It is stressed this procedure is strictly therapeutic, not sexual, but then these patients probably have no idea what an orgasm is. They just know they really, really like their treatment. Mortimer proves a quick study (though he develops hand cramps from so much friggery), even being encouraged to woo his mentor's favored daughter, Emily (Felicity Jones), who has a thornier sibling, suffragette Charlotte (Maggie Gyllenhaal), who irks Papa no end by helping the lower classes at a charity settlement house. Ahead-of-her-time "feisty" with a vengeance, she's like Mary Poppins juggling copies of "Das Kapital" and "The Female Eunuch." Naturally, idealistic but convention-bound Mortimer is going to realize he wants to be this spitfire's domestic partner rather than Emily's dully respectable husband. But not before a lot of predictable contrivances, including a trial scene that allows the two leads to speechify points the film has already made glaringly obvious. Most of the comedy comes from Mortimer and wealthy layabout pal Edmund's (Rupert Everett) semi-accidental invention of the vibrator -- which saves Mortimer's hand further stress and works hitherto undreamt wonders for Dalrymple's clientele. In contrast with the subtle humor playwright Ruhl eked from erotic awakening under moralistically blindered circumstances, "Hysteria" offers broad laffs via stereotypes and slapstick. Dancy manages a few sly moments, and Everett is as ever a scene-stealer, if barely recognizable under a beard and altered features, and with a raspy voice. But the estimable Pryce and Jones are wasted, along with many other fine thesps, while Gyllenhaal works too gratingly hard in an already strained role. Shot in England and Luxembourg, pic is handsome enough on design levels, pro in tech departments. Orchestral score is galumphingly frolicksome in an elephant-in-toeshoes way.Camera (color, widescreen), Sean Bobbit; editor, Jon Gregory; music, Gast Waltzing; additional music, Christian Henson; production designer, Sophie Becher; supervising art director, Bill Crutcher; set decorator, Charlotte Watts; costume designer, Nic Ede; sound (Dolby Digital), Martin Trevis; assistant director, Laurence Rexter-Baker; casting, Gaby Kester.
