I actually meant TV/movie role. It's sure that Hedwig wasn't an easy role!

But I'm confident about Darren and Versace. Actually, I kind of worry about myself. Very dark stories based on real facts are not my cup of tea right now :laughing

Oh ok.  Yes, I think this will be the most challenging TV/film role (assuming Smitten! is not going to require the same type of challenges as Versace:  American Crime Story, which I think is safe to assume).

I also have confidence in Darren's acting talent.  I have confidence in Ryan Murphy's directing talent as well, of course, although I do not know how many of the episodes will be directed by Ryan (especially since there is overlap in the filming for the Katrina: American Crime Story, Season 2).   I hope Ryan directs many of the Versace episodes, but even if he does not, I'm sure Ryan has faith in the other directors.

I get that, Jeremy (because very dark stories based on real people has not been my cup of tea for a very long time.  I finally saw the film Lion, and parts of the film had me crying a bucket of tears).  :cry

From dailydarrennews:

Does anyone mind if I do not put pics of Darren in costume in spoiler boxes?  Just let me know if you rather them be in the spoiler boxes.  I'll put them in a spoiler box for now, but unless I hear from anyone who prefers the use of spoiler boxes, pics of Darren in costume will not be put in spoiler boxes in the future.  Just let me know.  :happy face


Spoiler:





It looks like they trimmed Darren's eyebrows.  Did they put make up on his eyes?

Personally, it's okay if you don't use the spoiler tag.

I don't think we have used it for the Music Meister role.  And, this time, we already know what will happen and how it will end !

I don't need spoiler tags either, I know I'd look at everything anyway. :happy face

Maybe just to give each other a little warning if it's any sort of gruesome scene, like these pictures of Edgar Ramirez as Versace after he's been shot:

I've been wondering that too and not totally sure. Also whether or not he's wearing dark contact lenses. scratch

Thanks for your input, guys.  :happy face    Lin, I agree about using spoiler tags for graphic pics of the actors who play the victims of Cunanan. 

I'm not sure about dark contact lenses.  I would need to see more close-up pics.   But the shape of his eyes do look very different.

An article about Gianni Versace's home.  I felt sad looking at the interesting rooms, thinking about how much time and care he put into decorating his home.

April 18, 2017

Details about Ryan Murphy’s third installment of American Crime Story have been slowly trickling out for weeks: The latest season will explore the 1997 murder of fashion designer Gianni Versace, who will be played by Edgar Ramirez; Versace's killer will be played by Murphy regular Darren Criss; the designer's sister, Donatella, will be played by Penélope Cruz; and on April 7, it was announced that Ricky Martin will take on the role of Antonio D'Amico, Versace's longtime partner.

Other particulars, though, have been vague. Filming of the ten-episode season is set to start later this month in Los Angeles and Miami, where Versace was shot on the steps of his Miami mansion, a home he purchased in 1992 and resided in until his death. Known as the former Versace Mansion, it is currently a boutique hotel, The Villa Casa Casuarina—and will more than likely be one of the filming locations for Versace: American Crime Story.

"At this time, we are not allowed to discuss this question [regarding filming American Crime Story] due to negotiations taking place," a representative for The Villa Casa Casuarina told AD.

His house looks nice to me.

Penelope Cruz and Ricky Martin are two big names (and also stars from the nineties, I don't know if it's intentional).

I know that Ryan Murphy looks at small details, so I wouldn't be surprised if it was intentional that Penelope and Ricky are picked because they were stars from the nineties.

FYI for anyone interested, the TV show, Dateline, is reporting on Versace's murder on Friday, April 28 on NBC.  (via gleekto)

I think Darren already made a reference to this song in an interview.

Btw, it's a song from 1997, the year of Versace's death!

Oh wow.  Hmmm.   Coincidence?    What song is it, Jeremy?  And you have a great memory (which I've commented about before)!

Darren Criss Gets into Character Filming 'Versace' iin Miami

Darren Criss as he films a scene for the upcoming season of Versace: American Crime Story on Tuesday (May 2) in Miami, Florida.

The 30-year-old former Glee star is playing the role of Andrew Cunanan, the serial murderer killed fashion designer Gianni Versace on the steps of his Miami Beach home back in 1997.

Late last month, Edgar Ramirez – who plays Versace – was spotted bloodied and beaten as he filmed in Los Angeles.
Penelope Cruz is set to play Gianni’s sister Donatella Versace in the upcoming season.

More pics on the Versace set.  Lol at the pic of him wearing the red cap while looking directly at the photographer.   Razz

I actually feel bad for him.  These photographers/paparazzi(?) must be distracting.

More pics came out today.  Again, I have mixed feelings about posting these. I can imagine how not only distracting it is to have these photographers taking pics of Darren's every move while he is trying to focus, but also I wonder if he feels exposed too, especially since the photographers do not have the proper plot context for these pics.

I'll post one.  Have to think about the rest.

It also happened during the shooting of Glee and he has done an amazing job though. Besides, it doesn't seem to me that ACS Versace will be a show with a lot of scenes in public spaces.

I remember during a Glee scene he asked fans to move from his field of vision because it feels like someone reading over your shoulder when you're trying to write an essay. So I hope the paps at least aren't too much of a visual distraction/annoyance.
I'm selfishly glad we're getting some BTS glimpses so we're not totally in the dark until whenever the show airs next year. But I understand your hesitance about the other pics from yesterday, Poppy, those were a bit much.

Ryan Murphy to the rescue with an alternative source of BTS pics.  :happy face  He just started an Instagram account and this was his first post. I hope he likes his shiny new toy and keeps posting stuff. His Twitter was so amazing/awful/hilarious/insane when he started using it in S4 of Glee.
