Angel The Series :Renouvellé !

Et Spike Aka James Marsters :
membre du cast pour toute la saison
!


Depuis déjà une petite semaine, tout laissait supposer que Ats serait renouvelé par la WB dans leur grille de programmes pour la rentrée 2003-2004.
Et bien voilà, aujoud'hui, le magazine Variety annonce officiellement que Ats restera sur les écrans pour au moins une saison de plus. Mais pour améliorer la journée des fans encore plus, nous apprenons par la même occasion que James Marsters, qui a joué Spike pendant 6 saisons de BTVS, rejoindra le cast de Angel, et comme membre régulier durant toute la saison. James Marsters avait d'ailleurs déclaré lors de la convention Vulkon de Cleveland qu'il accepterait de reprendre son rôle de Spike, mais seulement en tant que membre régulier du Cast.
Je pense que beaucoup d'articles et d'interviews paraîtront cette semaine concernant le renouvellement d'Angel, j'essaierais autant que possible de vous tenir au courant ! D'ailleurs, le transcript du pochain chat avec Wanda (12/05/03, 8pm heure locale LA) devrait couvrir ce sujet...

"Warner Bros. TV's "ER" will remain open on NBC until at least May 2006, while 20th Century Fox's "Angel" -- with new cast addition James Marsters-- is taking flight for a fifth season on the WB.

[snippage of ER news] 'Angel' wings in As for "Angel," Frog has ordered another full season of the Joss Whedon-creative skein and will air the show Wednesdays at 9 p.m., with relocated hit "Smallville" as its lead-in. Frog has an option for a sixth season.

What's more, Paradigm-repped Marsters has signed on to reprise his "Buffy" role as punker vamp Spike. Other "Buffy" regulars may also make guest appearances next season, while Whedon has vowed to write several scripts and direct episodes of the show. Jeffrey Bell and Tim Minear will be exec producers/showrunners. Charisma Carpenter, who plays Cordelia, is not expected to return as a series regular.

"Angel's" recent ratings perfomance should have made it a shoo-in for a renewal. Still, WB execs wanted to see how their drama development turned out, and, more importantly, needed to hammer out a new license fee deal with 20th. While "Angel" isn't a particularly expensive skein to produce, it doesn't do very well in repeats, making it tougher for the Frog to turn a profit on the show. "Until we knew at what price we could close a deal for the series, as well as what the rest of our schedule cost, we couldn't make the call," WB Entertainment chief Jordan Levin said.

Date in print: Mon., May 12, 2003, Los Angeles "
