Hello, Hello, Hello!

How are all the Kevin fans doing? =)

So, considering nothing new has been happening aside from Kevin appearing as none other then our favorite bad boy, Keamy, on "LOST" there has been nothing to really update you all on. While this is still a one man show, literally, considering only one person is updating this blog, I still am attempting to keep you updated on all Kevin related news.

Set your DVRs! "3:10 to Yuma" is set to play THIS evening at 7:30PM Central Time, starring Kevin as "Tucker" on USA Network. Also, Thursday, April 22nd the episode of CSI: Crime Scene Investigation called "Still Life" guest starring our boy airs on SPIKEtv at 10:00AM, "Walking Tall" starring The Rock, will air on TNT Network Friday, April 23rd at 9:00PM and last but not least, "X-Men Origins: Wolverine" will air on the movie network, MAX, Saturday, April 24th at 9:40AM starring Hugh Jackman and Liev Schrieber.

So, stay tuned for more updates. =)

Long Time. No Blog.

Oh dear! It seems us, the management, have forgotten to update this wonderful blog in quite sometime. We feel bad for it. Really. A lot of things have happened over the past year!

Kevin got engaged. (Congrats to him and the very lucky lady!)

Currently, Kevin is starring in "Legion," as the arch angel Gabriel, which is in theaters now. So, go see you some Kevin with wings. =) For more info and showtimes, visit the "Legion" Fandago Page!

Kevin is also currently filming the new "Robin Hood" starring Russell Crowe as the title character and Kevin himself is playing the perfect role, Little John. "Robin Hood is slated for release May 14, 2010. For more information, visit the "Robin Hood" IMDB page!

He is also (still) rumored to be in "Hectic" as in the role of Eddie Panko. IMDB summary says:

Brooklyn, early 80's. Louis, once a top DJ, now is at the end of his rope from various addictions and emotional pains. He's got no money in his pocket and has a gambling debt of $25,000 grand to a gangster named Jimmy Thumbs; if he wants to stay alive he's got to get this guy paid within 24hrs.

For more info, visit the "Hectic" IMDB Page!

And last, but not least, "Otis E." We've had some questions regarding the film and it's ultimate release, but sadly there has been no change. We will update as soon as we have more for you!

Now, on a side note, to those of you who haven't noticed yet, Mr. Durand has deleted his Facebook page. One of the more "loving" fans decided to say something on his page about Kevin's being engaged. We, here at the Kevin Durand, The Ultimate Blog!, do not condone this type of behavior. Mr. Durand was kind enough to allow us to speak with him and leave him messages of encouragement onto his page, and occasionally he would write something back. Thanks to those few bad seeds, none of us have contact with Mr. Durand any longer. Thus, we now have to resort to checking his personal IMDB Page. If any negative comments are made about Mr. Durand or any of his family and loved ones, we will not hesitate to report you and ban you from posting on our blogs.

Okay, I think we're all on the same page now. On a last note, I have no clue when the main site will be up and running but for now the boards are still in session. If you want to join us for chatting, please sign up at Kevin Durand, The Ultimate Fan Site.

Thanks!
The Management
P.S. Hope you all had a wonderful holiday season!

About Kevin Durand




Note From Management:
The old site is currently in hiatus, possibly permanently, if you want more pictures and things go there though you won't be able to save them. The reason this blog was created is so that you Kevin fans can come and get updates on his rolls in movies and on television. We will attempt to update this site as frequently as possible.

Rules:
1. If you leave a comment, don't slander Kevin or any of his fans. It's rude.
2. No hotlinking the pictures on here, it's not only annoying but it also uses our bandwidth.

Yes, we are also in contact with Kevin.

Love and peace,
The Management
