From A.R. Wilson of Digital Journal:

‘X Company’ star Evelyne Brochu gets lost in translation
Sometimes Evelyne Brochu’s career gets lost, quite literally, in translation.

When the Montreal native first began acting in English four years ago, few people in anglophone Canada — and even fewer in the United States — knew about her impressive French-language career in Quebec, which includes not only extensive TV credits, but film work with top-tier directors Denis Villenueve (Polytechnique), Jean-Marc Vallee (Café de Flore), and Xavier Dolan (Tom à la ferme). She was viewed, she says, as a “blank slate.” Continue reading.

From Bridget Liszewski of The TV Junkies:

Bitten showrunner Daegan Fryklind previews tough choices ahead
“If any one of us was presented with a different history, or uncovered a past other than what we’ve come to know, we’d be torn between pursuing that truth or letting sleeping dogs lie. Elena is a character who has always longed for a family, that’s part of the books and we’ve made it part of the series, so introducing this new family felt like the natural expansion of the series, and a way to bring her character back to the centre of the show.” Continue reading.

From Bridget Liszewski of The TV Junkies:

Women Behind Canadian TV: Michelle Lovretta
“I really crave well drawn female characters, so I most often respond to a writer who can bring that recipe. Many of those writers are women, so the gender balance thing kind of takes care of itself. I don’t hire the women I hire for politics or for the industry–I hire them selfishly, for the good of my show. Same for the menfolk. But I will say that over the years I’ve come to realize that it’s not just the number of women on staff that matters, it’s also the number of women whose ideas and voices end up on the screen under their own name. That’s how you build a career and escape tokenism.” Continue reading.
