LEGENDS: Tina Majorino on Her In-Depth Prep for the Show, Creating Backstory, and More

Tina Majorino has been a steady presence on television for a decade (among her credits: VERONICA MARS, BIG LOVE, TRUE BLOOD, GREY’S ANATOMY, and BONES) and now she’s back in a new show, TNT’s LEGENDS.

LEGENDS follows the FBI agents of DCO (Deep Cover Operations) as they navigate their work — and adjust back to life with Martin (played by Sean Bean), who had been deep undercover. (The series also stars Ali Larter, Morris Chestnut, and Steve Harris as fellow members of DCO.)

Majorino’s Maggie is the team’s newest member, and as she pointed out during our chat, her character’s career decision says a fair amount about her, because “you have to be committed and a special kind of person to want to do this with your life.”

Read on for more from my chat with Majorino, including the impressive amount of prep she did for the series, creating her own backstory, and much more…

BAD JUDGE: VERONICA MARS’ Ryan Hansen Lands a Series Regular Gig

BAD JUDGE has a new series regular, a rep for the show has confirmed: VERONICA MARS’ Ryan Hansen! (Deadline was first to report the news.)

Hansen — who last appeared on the short-lived CBS comedy BAD TEACHER — will star opposite Kate Walsh in the new NBC comedy about Rebecca Wright, an unconventional judge. Hansen will play Gary (a role that was originally played by MASTERS OF SEX/BONES’ Mather Zickel in the first version of the pilot), a psychiatrist…and Rebecca’s sex buddy.

Are you excited to see Hansen on BAD JUDGE?

VERONICA MARS at PaleyFest 2014: The Cast Tease Where Their Characters Are and the Journey to Make the Movie

VERONICA MARS has been off television screens for nearly seven years, but starting today, the Kickstarter-funded movie is available for fans to download and stream online, or see in select theaters. (Or if you contributed to the Kickstarter campaign, many of the reward tiers included a free online download of the film.)

To celebrate the occasion, the series/franchise was honored on Thursday night in Hollywood by the Paley Center as it kicked off the 2014 PaleyFest. Before the panel, I talked with VERONICA MARS stars Enrico Colantoni (Keith), Jason Dohring (Logan), Francis Capra (Weevil), Percy Daggs III (Wallace), Chris Lowell (Piz), Tina Majorino (Mac), and Ryan Hansen (Dick) about where there characters are in the movie, playing the characters again after so many years, the experience of making a fan-funded film, and more…

PaleyFest 2014: New Location Announced and Panels for VERONICA MARS, AMERICAN HORROR STORY: COVEN, and PRETTY LITTLE LIARS Planned

PaleyFest 2014 won’t be kicking off until March 13th (and the full lineup won’t be announced until early next year), but Paley Center has announced three shows that will have panels during the annual festival.

VERONICA MARS will open up the festival with a “cast reunion” one day before the Kickstarter-funded movie hits theaters; a PRETTY LITTLE LIARS panel is being planned (no cast announcement yet); and AMERICAN HORROR STORY: COVEN will close the festival on March 28th.

Additionally, the festival will now be held in the Dolby Theatre (located at Hollywood and Highland).
