Overlooked by Vanity Fair magazine...again!!

Those who have the responsibility of putting together the annual yearly Hollywood edition of Vanity Fair magazine, have not included actress Holliday Grainger in their portfolio of rising male and female actors. This is a significant blow to those of us who were hoping that she might get the proper publicity to push her further towards getting noticed in Hollywood. In spite of one newspaper already claiming that she is a Hollywood star, the truth seems to be that she has sparked some possible interest from casting directors in Tinseltown, but is minimal; and there isn't really much evidence to suggest she is a household name here in the UK. The British versions of OK and Hello magazine have yet to do a proper interview and photoshoot with her. In spite of these publicity-orientated stumbling blocks, I am venturing to remain optimistic that come the latter half of 2013 and the first few months of 2014, Miss Grainger will be in every major celebrity fashion magazine and be earning a movie star salary. The length of her acting CV, and the quality of her performances should be rewarded with A-List stardom.

More bad news from BAFTA Central....

The hope I was clinging to that Holliday Grainger would get included in the list of BAFTA nominations for Best Supporting Actress for her portrayal of Estella in "Great Expectations" has been dashed. It is bad enough that she was omitted from those people up for the EE Rising Star Award, but this....I cannot put into words how dismayed I am with her exclusion from a BAFTA nod that could elevate her career towards leading lad status.

Bad news from BAFTA central.....

In spite of announcing the 2012 BAFTA Film Awards nominations alongside Daniel Radcliffe, Holliday Grainger has been overlooked by those who have been selected to pick the candidates for the 2013 EE BAFTA Rising Star Award. In the face of this disapointing piece of news, I am still clinging to the hope that her portrayal of Estella will guarantree her a BAFTA nomination in the category of Best Supporting Actress. I will keep you posted on developments....

New Holliday Grainger film project....

Excellent news! After a few months of wondering whether she was going to get a leading role in another film, Holliday Grainger has secured the part of Lucy in upcoming British vampire flick ''Hello Darkness", a role that had been vacated by friend and fellow actress Imogen Poots. Once I have more details, I will post them here.
