“The latest installment in “The Bane Chronicles” was co-written by Cassandra Clare and Maureen Johnson, as a companion series of stories to the bestselling “Infernal Devices.” And with “The Runaway Queen” debuting May 21, it shouldn’t be long before we can hear it as its creators almost certainly intended: in the delicious baritone voice of a sexy, sexy man.”
Hollywood Crush, you understand us so well.
When Sarah and were at Wondercon (Sarah accompanying me for moral support) the green room had tables of food (why, who knows, no one in entertainment eats) marked FOR SONY ONLY DO NOT TOUCH and FOR VIKINGS ONLY DO NOT TOUCH. Yes, for Vikings. We were confused.
Me: Sarah, do not touch the sandwiches on that table, Vikings will kill you.
Official-looking lady: That means the History Channel show Vikings.
Me: No, I’m pretty sure it’s real Vikings.
Up pops a cute-looking lad in a striped shirt. “I am a Viking! Of sorts.”
Sarah: I really enjoyed your work in Les Mis!
Me: I have no idea what is happening, but when do I ever.
Stripey lad turned out to be George Blagden, who was very nice, and off I went and watched Les Mis, and indeed, he was very fine in it, and when it came time to cast Runaway Queen and I began to think about dramatic times in France, I thought of him. Partly because he seems very talented and partly because he was stuck in a service elevator with me and Sarah and no one should have to go through that.
I know this has little chance of peeling everyone away from the international trailer but — George! is! awesome! and I am very pleased at the lineup of hot dudes who so far are voicing the tale of Magnus. Yay, Runaway Queen!
I can't wait!
Oh I'm so excited!! I can't wait to hear him narrate Runaway Queen.
