Hey everyone! First, I want to apologize for my absence recently. I have been adjusting to starting a new job and finishing up my academic career, so my fan sites had to take a back seat for a few months. I’m now trying to play catch-up and get things back on track.

I have added 814 HQ/MQ photos of Alison Brie from events she has attended so far in 2023 to our photo gallery. We’re now all caught up with event pictures! Check them out by clicking on the preview links!

Peacock‘s Apples Never Fall is adding more stars as Alison Brie and Jake Lacy join the limited drama.

They are cast alongside the previously announced Annette Bening and Sam Neill who will lead the show based on Big Little Lies writer Liane Moriarty‘s book of the same name. Produced by Universal International Studios’ Heyday Television, Apples Never Fall is written for television by showrunner Melanie Marnich who executive produces alongside Moriarty, David Heyman, Albert Page, and Jillian Share.

The series centers around the Delaneys, who, from the outside, appear to be a perfect family. Former tennis coaches Joy (Bening) and Stan (Neill) are parents to four adult children, and after decades of marriage, they have finally sold their famed tennis academy and are ready to start what should be the golden years of their lives.

Things take a turn, though, after Joy disappears and her children are forced to re-examine their parents’ marriage and family history with fresh eyes. Both Brie and Lacy have been cast as Delaney children in the series, which will have multiple episodes directed by Chris Sweeney.

Brie will play Amy Delaney, the oldest of the Delaney children and the black sheep of the family. Still renting a room in a house meant for grad students and jumping from one career path to another, Amy is a mess. Meanwhile, Lacey plays Troy Delaney, the second-eldest child of the family whose competitive edge he developed as a young tennis player is now his greatest asset as a venture capitalist.

Viewers will recognize Brie from her roles in shows like GLOW and Community as well as the recently released Prime Video film Somebody I Used to Know. As for Lacey, he’s been seen most recently in shows like A Friend of the Family and Season 1 of HBO‘s Emmy-winning The White Lotus.

Filming for Apples Never Fall will begin soon in Queensland, Australia. Stay tuned for more on the series as we await casting news for the remaining Delaney children and other characters.

Community fans were overjoyed last September when Joel McHale confirmed that the long-awaited movie was finally in the works. The long-running dream of fans’ of the show, ‘six seasons and a movie’, finally turned into reality seven years after Season 6 aired. It had been a long and bumpy ride for fans to see that dream come true, but things are finally in motion. In a recent appearance at late night show Jimmy Kimmel Live! the actor confirmed filming will begin later this year in June.

McHale was on the show to promote his upcoming series Animal Control. During the interview, an Albino Burmese Python was brought out as McHale plays a cop turned animal control officer in the series. Kimmel then reminded him that he worked with a monkey in Community and probed him about the upcoming feature. McHale affirmed, “We are, we’re making the Community movie in June, so… Thanks for remembering.” The actor stayed tight-lipped about the feature, but jokingly confirmed, “I can say Ken Jeong’s gonna be in it.”

The series, set at Greendale Community College, followed former lawyer Jeff Winger (McHale) who is forced to attend the school in order to obtain a legitimate degree. There, he forms a Spanish study group with several quirky classmates who quickly become his found family. Over the years, the group has entertained fans with chaotic situations, famous paintball fights, alternate timelines, animated episodes, and meta-commentary.

When the movie was announced Peacock confirmed most of the cast will be coming back including McHale, Gillian Jacobs, Alison Brie, Danny Pudi, Jim Rash, and Jeong, however, Donald Glover, Chevy Chase, and Yvette Nicole Brown, were sorely absent from the cast list. Nonetheless, creator Don Harmon did not rule out the possibility of getting the actors in the roster, previously divulging, “I think if there’s names missing from a list, it’s because the names that are on the list, and their deals are agreed upon enough that it’s OK to say they are on the list, and anybody that’s not on a list, it’s just not the case yet. So there is nothing official about anybody being out.”

Currently, there is no release window for the series or even what the plot will be, except that it will eventually debut on Peacock. In the meantime, catch up with the full series now on Netflix, and coming soon to Peacock.

Six seasons and a movie is finally real after NBCUniversal’s Peacock ordered a feature film closure for Community.

It’s a long time coming for the fan-favorite series, which ran for more than 100 episodes between 2009 and 2015.

The streaming service has ordered Community: The Movie from creator Dan Harmon. It will feature original series stars Joel McHale, Danny Pudi, Alison Brie, Gillian Jacobs, Jim Rash and Ken Jeong. The NBCU digital platform won the rights in a competitive situation.

It comes a month after Harmon gave his most concrete answer to the question about when the movie is coming, revealing that it was a “matter of when.” It seems when is now.

Community, which was set in a community college in Colorado, originally launched on NBC, airing alongside series such as The Office, 30 Rock and Parks and Recreation. It ran for five seasons on the linear network before moving to Yahoo! Screen for its final season – one of the first shows to move to a digital platform after a linear launch.

McHale returns as Jeff Winger, Jacobs plays Britta Perry, Pudi is Abed Nadir, Brie as Annie Edison, Rash as Craig Pelton, and Jeong as Ben Chang.

There’s no sign of Chevy Chase, who starred in the first four seasons but left after frequent conflicts with Harmon following a Season 5 cameo, Donald Glover, who starred in the first five seasons, and Yvette Nicole Brown, who also starred in the first five seasons, are also not returning, but that’s not a surprise given their exits.

Harmon and Andrew Guest will write and exec produce while McHale, Russ Krasnoff and Gary Foster will executive produce the movie, which comes from Sony Pictures Television and Universal Television.

Peacock is also acquiring the full series library on a non-exclusive basis.

“‘Six seasons and a movie’ started out as a cheeky line from Community’s early seasons and quickly ignited a passionate fan movement for this iconic, hilarious and cool NBC comedy,” said Susan Rovner, Chairman, Entertainment Content, NBCUniversal Television and Streaming. “We’re incredibly grateful that 15 years later, we are able to deliver fans this promised movie and can’t wait to get to work with Dan Harmon, Andrew Guest, Joel McHale, Sony and our partners at UTV to continue this epic comedy for Peacock audiences.”

“Community was light years ahead of its time when it premiered on NBC in 2009 and we are thrilled to once again visit the brilliant minds of Dan Harmon, Andrew Guest and this impeccable cast. We are grateful to Peacock, our partners at UTV and to all the zealous fans who have cherished this iconic show,” said Jason Clodfelter, Co-President, Sony Pictures Television Studios.

“This franchise is the very definition of community,” added Erin Underhill, President, Universal Television. “We’re excited to bring the band back together and continue the journey of these beloved characters.”

Alison Brie is featured on “The Last Laugh” podcast.

Alison Brie had one of the luckiest big breaks in the history of television. Before the age of 30, she managed to simultaneously co-star on TV’s most celebrated drama (Mad Men) and most obsessed-over comedy (Community). In the seven years since those two shows ended their iconic runs, she has risen to the top of the call sheet in her beloved Netflix series GLOW, and gone toe to toe with both comedy stars like Will Ferrell and acting legends like Meryl Streep on the big screen.

In this week’s episode of The Last Laugh podcast, Brie talks about making the move to indie film screenwriting with Netflix’s Horse Girl and now her Italy-set comedy Spin Me Round. She also addresses whether fans can expect to see Chevy Chase in the eventual Community movie, explains why she felt the need to apologize for her voice work on Bojack Horseman, and a lot more.

Alison Brie is scheduled to appear at the event in Los Angeles for the launch of Betty Gilpin’s new book “All the Women in My Brain”. The event will be held on September 10 at Dynasty Typewriter, you can purchase tickets to the event at Eventbrite.

I have added 86 HQ photos of Alison Brie from her appearances on “The Late Late Show” and “The Today Show”, as well as arriving to the taping, to our photo gallery. Check them out by clicking on the preview links!

On some films, “producer” may be a vanity title added next to an actor’s name during the credits to boost their ego, rather than a hard-earned badge of honor. But more and more actors – like Lili Reinhart and Alison Brie – are working to change that, earning that credit by taking a step behind the camera and having a say in almost every decision on their films – from the art, to the props, to the music and to casting.

During this episode of WrapWomen’s “UnWrapped” Podcast, “Look Both Ways” star and executive producer Lili Reinhart, along with “Spin Me Round” actress, co-writer and producer Alison Brie take us behind the scenes of their recent projects and what they learned in taking on various roles during production.

A lot has changed for Alison Brie since being cast as Trudy Campbell on Mad Men in 2007. Over the years, the California-born actress has proved that she can’t be pigeonholed, from becoming an integral part of the ensemble on Community to embodying supporting characters in films like Scream 4 and The Five-Year Engagement. In 2016, she accepted a bit part in Joshy, a comedic drama from writer/director Jeff Baena. That project was transformative for Brie, who has since collaborated with Baena on 2017’s The Little Hours, 2020’s Horse Girl and now on Spin Me Round. The latter two have marked Brie’s debut as co-writer, an aspect of her career that has become more and more important in recent years.

Spin Me Round, out now, stars Brie as Amber, the manager of an Italian chain restaurant who earns an all-expenses trip to a company’s headquarters in Italy. What begins as a whimsical rom-com, seemingly about an ordinary woman having extraordinary experiences in a foreign country, quickly becomes something else. After Amber is whisked off on a yacht by the chain’s handsome owner, she uncover mysterious circumstances that she fears might be kidnapping, or worse. The movie slips between genres effortlessly, veering from bubbly rom-com to terrifying thriller. Brie stars alongside Alessandro Nivola, Molly Shannon, Tim Heidecker, Debby Ryan and Aubrey Plaza (who is also Baena’s wife). Much of the cast had previously acted together on the director’s previous work, making the 22-day shoot in Italy feel like a reunion.

Observer spoke with Brie about collaborating with Baena, why she wants to write her own roles and what’s next for her career.
