Amber Benson To Star In Upcoming Movie I Saw The TV Glow

10/4/2022

If you follow our dedicated Facebook and Twitter feeds you will have seen the hugely exciting news that Amber is set to star in upcoming horror thriller, I Saw The TV Glow. This will be the first time Amber has appeared in an on-screen role since she starred as Professor Samantha Rand in the 2019's The Nightmare Gallery.
 
As many fans will know in recent years Amber has transitioned from acting to writing, including the Calliope-Reaper Jones series and the Echo Park Coven Series of novels. Following the completion of these successful series Amber began writing for television. In 2017 she wrote Oscar Pistorius: Blade Runner Killer and 2018’s Terror in The Woods followed in 2020 by A Murder To Remember. These three movies were true crime films based on real-life events for the Lifetime Network.
 
Then Amber returned to fiction writing with A Murder In Mind and Death By Design, both part of the popular Morning Show Mysteries series for Hallmark. As well as A Family Christmas Gift she wrote both the original story and co-wrote the teleplay for this charming festive movie, again for Hallmark. Amber has also been developing The Witches of Echo Park, the first in her Echo Park Coven trilogy of novels for television. These are some of the most recent projects in her impressive and growing body of work as a writer.
 
In August however The Hollywood Reporter exclusively broke the news that Amber would be returning to the screen as part of the cast for the horror thriller, I Saw The TV Glow. I was both surprised and delighted that Amber is returning to the screen after a few years away. The Hollywood Reporter states that the film is now in postproduction and Amber shared her own excitement at being part of the film. Below is a screenshot of the tweet from her official account.

I was lucky enough to meet Amber again at the Cross Roads 5 Convention in Birmingham last weekend. During a Q&A session with fans I asked Amber if she could share any more about I Saw The TV Glow. She said, "If you like genre shows like Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Supernatural you will love this film."
 
A big thank you to Amber for being kind enough to answer my question!
 
When more information about, I Saw The TV Glow is available I will post a further update. In the meantime to read the full article from the Hollywood Reporter click here.
 
My apologies for the long delay in posting this update in the latest Amber News section. I've had a particularly busy time with work commitments and planning my trip to join fellow fans at Cross Roads 5. A big thank you to fellow Amber fan Laragh for giving me a heads up about this exciting news.

Amber Was The Special Guest on a Recent Episode of Turn The Page Podcast

A few days ago, I was excited to learn that Amber had recently been the special guest of the Turn The Page Podcast. This isn't a podcast I was familiar with and I was intrigued to learn that it is in fact the official podcast of The Syosset Public Library in Nassau County, New York USA. Their team of librarians host and produce the podcast and discuss all things literary including talking to special guests.
 
As well as being an author herself Amber has a passion for books so her appearance on Turn The Page was a perfect fit for her. Amber talks about how she began her career as a writer before discussing her own works including, Ghosts of Albion, The Calliope Reaper-Jones Series and The Witches of Echo Park Trilogy. 

Amber recalls how her career has an actor influences her writing and how she uses her training to narrate audiobooks for a series of top authors as well as her own work. We get a mysterious hint or two as Amber reveals she's working on a top-secret project and there’s lots more interesting discussion too.
 
To listen to the podcast in full and for free just click the link below:

I really enjoyed this interesting podcast, it's definitely a must listen for any Amber fan. Thank you to friend and fellow Amber fan Katie for letting me know about this podcast.

Morning Show Mysteries: Death By Design Written By Amber Benson will have its UK Premiere on Friday, 7 August on Channel 5

8/1/2020

Picture
After years of working as a successful novelist on her Calliope Reaper-Jones series, The Echo Park Coven Trilogy and co-authoring The Ghosts of Albion series with Christopher Golden, Amber is developing a growing body of work as a writer for television.
 
She researched and wrote the scripts for Oscar Pistorius: Blade Runner Killer and Terror in The Woods for the Lifetime network describing the events surrounding two real-life tragic murder cases. In fact, Amber is adding to her work for the Lifetime Network once again with A Murder To Remember adapting crime author Ann Rule’s book Empty Promises for the screen. Fans in the USA will have the opportunity to see its premiere on Sunday 2 of August 8PM ET on Lifetime.
 
In 2019 she got the chance to pen two fictional murder mysteries for the small screen first she wrote the teleplay for Morning Show Mysteries: A Murder In Mind. Then quickly followed this up by writing Morning Show Mysteries: Death By Design the second time Amber has written for this popular series both of which aired on the Hallmark Movies and Mysteries Channel in the USA.
 
The Morning Show Mysteries series centers on Billie Blessings (Holly Robinson Peete) a successful restaurateur who also hosts the cooking segment on Wake Up West Coast, a popular TV show. Billie was once suspected of murder but after clearing her name with the help of Detective Ian Jackson (Rick Fox) the two remained friends and are growing even closer as they find themselves at the heart of another mystery.
 
In Death By Design Billie’s best friend Marian is hired to redecorate the Wake Up West Coast studio. The decorating comes to a sudden and shocking halt when Marian’s twin sister is found murdered. So naturally Billie and Ian are hot on the trail of the killer.
 
The exciting news for Amber fans in the UK is that Morning Show Mysteries: Death By Design will have it’s UK Premiere on Friday, 7 August at 2:15 PM on Channel 5 and at 3:15 PM on Channel 5+1. Coming hot on heels of Morning Show Mysteries: A Murder in Mind which had it’s UK premiere just a few days ago.
 
There are different channel numbers depending on which digital TV platform you use I would check on-screen guides and any local channel listings for the correct channel numbers. Unfortunately, A Murder in Mind was not available on demand via the Channel 5 website and I don't anticipate that Death By Design will be either but I will check and post an update if it is available.
 
Just as with A Murder in Mind there isn't much information on the Channel 5 website about Death By Design click here to view the listing. I've also embedded the US trailer below so you can get a taste of the movie.
I'm thrilled that UK fans will now have the chance to see and enjoy Amber's words in what promises to be another exciting mystery.

A few days ago it was confirmed that Amber is set to attend a book signing at WhedonCon 2018 held in Los Angeles this weekend.

Amber will again be a guest of Dark Delicacies, this time at their booth in the vendor hall that will be part of the WhedonCon 2018 event.

I've had many dealings with Dark Delicacies over the years and their staff have always been friendly and helpful and as we know there's only one thing better than an Amber Benson book and that's a signed Amber Benson book. If you haven't had the chance to meet Amber and can get there do it I guarantee you'll have fun Amber is terrific.
