3rd June 2010 ~ I recieved this email today and am really excited about this project called First Platoon:

"ALAN TUDYK TO “ROCK” ZOMBIE COMEDY

Alan Tudyk has signed on to lead the cast of zombie comedy First Platoon as ‘Rock Brannigan,’ leader of a ragtag squad of zombie hunters in the post apocalyptic Southwest.

Tudyk is well known for his portrayal of quirky, often comedic characters, including ‘Tucker’, in the 2010 Sundance hit Tucker & Dale vs. Evil, & in A Knight’s Tale, ‘Steve the Pirate’ in Dodgeball: An Underdog’s Story, ‘Gerhardt’ in 28 Days, ‘Sonny’ in I, Robot, and  ‘Jack’ ( the executive),  in the Judd Apatow directed comedy Knocked Up.  In the critically acclaimed Death at a Funeral, Tudyk was especially notable as the nervous fiance’, who, inadvertently drugged with an hallucinogenic rather than the Valium he expected, makes a muck-up of the titled funeral, but perhaps his most beloved role to date is that of ‘Wash,’ pilot of Serenity in the Joss Whedon TV cult hit Firefly and the subsequent film Serenity.

Along with squad members Arron Shiver and Jennifer Skyler, Tudyk will undergo military style desert training with Capt Dale Dye, accomplished actor and military advisor on Band of Brothers, Saving Private Ryan, The Pacific and more, before filming begins.

Joining him in the cast are Malcolm McDowell as ‘Rex Necro,’ Sid Haig as ‘Pa Jericho,’ John Kassir as ‘Burke,’ while Arron Shiver and newcomer Jennifer Skyler round out the zombie hunting team of ‘Rock Brannigan,’ ‘Molly Mcguire,’ and ‘Pete Davis.’ Writer/director Chris Gabriel has previously teamed up with First Earth Films on “S4”, an ultra low budget 1950’s style sci-fi comedy, and will also direct “Raggedy Anne,” an action/comedy, in late 2011.

2nd May 2010 ~ “Good Vibes, an animated show being put together by director David Gordon Green. At the time it was looking like Fox would be the corporate home, but now the roof over the show’s head will likely be provided by the channel once known as Music Television. MTV is close to putting in a 12-episode order for Good Vibes, with Green and original producers Tom Werner and Mike Clements. Brad Ableson, the animator of the pilot presentation created for Fox in 2008, is on board for this incarnation of the show as well. When that pilot was put together it had quite a voice cast: Adam Brody, Alan Tudyk, Danny McBride, Debi Mazar, Jake Busey, Josh Gad and Olivia Thirlby. Now that significant time has passed and the profiles of some of those actors have changed considerably, we don’t know who, if any, will be back for this incarnation. But Deadline reports that “talks are underway” for that cast to reprise their roles going forward.”

14th March 2010 ~ Alan Tudyk is set to co-star opposite Dermot Mulroney in NBC's pilot "Rockford Files," an update of the classic 1970s P.I. series. The new Rockford, written by House creator David Shore, stars Mulroney as Jim Rockford, who is "slightly crumpled, wry humored, cynical, world weary, compassionate when it's called for and easily irritated by morons." Tudyk will play Det. Dennis Becker, a friend of Rockford's who is a bit embarrassed by that since all the other cops hate Rockford.
