This is a Curtis, Simon and Alisha Misfits Post



We're going to start off with the underrated and unappreciated Nathan Stewart-Jarrett. Along with being in the upcoming film The Comedian, Nathan is also in a new Channel 4 show called Utopia, so here's two trailers for that:





Here are your first official looks (via 2 trailers) at Nathan Stewart-Jarrett (Misfits) in the upcoming new C4 6-part, 6-hour series titled Utopia, which he stars in alongside Paul Higgins, Alexandra Roach and Neil Maskell.

Directed by Marc Munden, from a script written by Dennis Kelly, Utopia's synopsis reads:

The Utopia Experiments is a legendary graphic novel shrouded in mystery. But when Ian, Becky, Grant and Wilson Wilson, a small group of previously unconnected people find themselves in possession of an original manuscript of the fabled book, their lives suddenly and brutally implode. Targeted swiftly and relentlessly by a murderous organisation known as The Network this terrified group are left with only one option if they want to survive: they have to run. When help appears to come in the form of the mysterious Jessica Hyde, who promises to keep them safe, what choice is there but to believe her? As their world goes dark and all they previously knew is wrenched from them, the four strangers must shed their past and come together in order to survive this violent new future.


Regarding Nathan's role... he's playing the first character mentioned in the synopsis - Ian, who is described as...

... an IT consultant... who met the rest of the group on a forum. It's not something he would normally do, go on the forum, and he doesn't really know much about the manuscript. He's quite naïve about the whole thing, and is the newbie of the group, in a sense. He questions everything, and follows the others like a little lamb.


Secondly, Utopia is set to debut on January 15 at 10pm on Channel 4, in the UK. As for whether it'll travel, no word on that yet. I guess there has to be some demand for it. But given that Nathan' last series, Misfits, has quite a following here in the USA, I won't be surprised if it's picked up by somebody. Maybe even Hulu.

Finally, in a profile with C4, the script for the show is described as amazing, shocking, with high stakes and a regular threat of violence, and, of course, some humor to balance things out.

Audiences will be engaged with the series via multiple platforms, encouraging debate around some of the drama's biggest themes.



Mr. Iwan Rheon will of course be on Game of Thrones this season and will also begin to film an ITV sitcom (yes, sitcom) with Sir Ian McKellen and Sir Derek Jacobi called Vicious (if you are in London, you can attend a taping), along with being in two films and filming a third. But recently he performed a gig in his hometown of Cardiff, so here's video:









The lovely and beautiful Antonia has been keeping quiet for the most part as she films the musical Sunshine on Leith, there have been some random photos of her on set and up and about so let's enjoy her pretty:

With Freya Mavor:





Filming Northern Soul (she is in the white dress):





And an oldie but a goodie, the original Misfits cast during a boot camp before filming series two:

Antonia is too damn pretty. Will definitely check out 'Utopia.'
shangri__la 11th-Jan-2013 11:08 pm (UTC)
Also, Joe Gilgun, my friend! My flawless foursome. <3
brokenseas 11th-Jan-2013 11:06 pm (UTC)
Robert Sheehan needs to stop with that facial hair. That last picture is a perfect post ruiner
shangri__la 11th-Jan-2013 11:09 pm (UTC)
I was going to put it under the cut, but the cuteness of bb Antonia, Iwan, and Nathan outweighed the gross hair.
brokenseas 11th-Jan-2013 11:19 pm (UTC)
It draws my eyes to its unpleasant cheesiness! :( I just gotta scroll up
bollyhood 11th-Jan-2013 11:11 pm (UTC)

fred2265 11th-Jan-2013 11:46 pm (UTC)

christinalina 11th-Jan-2013 11:15 pm (UTC)
Antonia is beautiful.
judgmental 11th-Jan-2013 11:17 pm (UTC)
that first trailer looks fucking cool
flyingpigs_live 11th-Jan-2013 11:18 pm (UTC)
the Simon/Alisha relationship was boring as fuck, and I hated how it took over the show.
shangri__la 11th-Jan-2013 11:26 pm (UTC)
I honestly don't get this comment- series two had one episode focused on S/A and scenes in other character-centered episodes. Series three had two episodes that revolved around it (one of which was their send-off episode), while the bulk of series three focused on Kelly and Rudy. So...I don't get it.
lucciolaa 11th-Jan-2013 11:40 pm (UTC)
mte it was pretty short lived.
m_pendulum 12th-Jan-2013 01:14 am (UTC)
I agree and honestly their relationship was one of the best things I felt the show had overall.
canuckgirl33 12th-Jan-2013 05:23 am (UTC)
Samesies. In fact, it would have been better IF they did FOCUSED on S/A
egalitarianmuse 11th-Jan-2013 11:19 pm (UTC)
I wasn't all the het up about Utopia until that trailer. It's got Nathan and Paul Higgins from The Thick of It. I'm here for that.

Obligatory Antonia Thomas's face ought to be illegal it's so pretty comment here.

babblinjoe 12th-Jan-2013 05:22 am (UTC)
can we just replace every girls post with a some girls post? some girls > girls any day of the week!
canuckgirl33 12th-Jan-2013 05:27 am (UTC)
God, that sex scene after he found his dick was god awful, I actually switched off
mikochin 11th-Jan-2013 11:20 pm (UTC)
I love Iwan and Antonia! <3 Misfits was terrible this season tbh. I'm not watching the next one.
lalameanslove 11th-Jan-2013 11:22 pm (UTC)
Antonia and Iwan need to date irl and continue the most flawless OP to grace my screen plz
shangri__la 11th-Jan-2013 11:28 pm (UTC)
She has a longtime boyfriend. But I wouldn't be opposed to seeing those three work together again in some capacity.
jessepinkman 11th-Jan-2013 11:29 pm (UTC)
