Mel writes: I know that many members of the Colbert Nation and TORn noticed that Anduril was hanging on Stephen Colbert’s wall during the Christmas special (it was reported here within hours, after all). I pulled up TORn this morning, however, expecting to see the newest development, but nothing. . .yet! On the off chance no one else saw this and squealed with delight, Stephen was “knighted” by Queen Noor of Jordan last night with none other than Anduril! He twice started to say, “I got this from–“ but was cut off. I assumed he was talking about the sword. I don’t know if he was going to tell the truth, or finish it with: “–Lord Elrond himself!”
Ok Colbert…if you are THAT big a fan..you must come to TORN…so drop us a line already!
Sir Ian McKellen hasn’t spent his entire acting career aching to play Shakespeare’s King Lear. “I thought it was beyond me,” the veteran English actor said, surprisingly. “It was never a part I wanted to play. I knew, from having seen other people play it up close, that it takes an awful lot out of you. “You can’t throw off a King Lear. You have to delve into it.” McKellen never too old to be young
If you couldn’t catch Sir Ian McKellen on stage as King Lear, then tune in this week when the PBS program, Great Performances, features the Royal Shakespeare Company’s production. After airing March 25th on TV, (check the site for show times in your area), the play, originally staged in Stratford-upon-Avon in the spring of 2007, will be available online.
