A24 has started the promotional tour for “Hereditary”, which will be in full swing by the end of the week. After a press junket in Los Angeles last week, from which video interviews are now being released here and there as we speak, Toni will be in London to attend the British Sundance Film Festival to talk about the film and will also be a guest on Friday’s “The Graham Norton Show”. Quite a few reviews are being released already for the film’s June 15 release, but this time I’ve decided to not read anything and see the film without any spoilers. The first batch of press junket interviews have been added to the video archive, pictures from the event can be found in the photo gallery and below is IMDb’s chat with Toni and co-star Alex Wolff. Enjoy and check back for more updates this week.

Toni Collette graces the cover of Sunday’s Stellar Magazine in Australia. Subscribers to their site can read it online. Here’s a snippet from the Daily Mail: Toni Collette has revealed how she has balanced motherhood with her Hollywood acting career. The 45-year-old described juggling both acting and family life as ‘maddening’ at times, during her interview with Stellar. ‘But it’s worth it in the end because, as I say, both areas of my life are really, really important to me,’ she said. More bits can be read here. Also, Britain’s Empire Magazine has a great Summer Movie guide with a great review on “Hereditary” and a special on past and recent horror classics. Edit: I’ve added scans from both Stellar Magazine and the Australian Sunday Times to the photo gallery, both run the same article but with different pictures.

A bunch of scary new production stills and international posters for “Hereditary” have been added to the photo gallery.

This coming Sunday is Mother’s Day, that annual celebration when we all let our moms know just how much they mean to us. Some of us do it with flowers, some with chocolate, and some with the perfect card that says everything that’s in our hearts. But this year why not get the woman that raised you something different? Like two ticket movie tickets for a fun night out. Though based on the new “Happy Mother’s Day” trailer for the horror film Hereditary, you might need to find a less traumatizing way to say “I love you.” The latest teaser for Hereditary–a movie so scary it had audiences at the Sundance Film Festival losing their minds, and (hilariously) terrorized parents and children when a trailer for it accidentally aired before Peter Rabbit–wishes all the moms out their a Happy Mother’s Day this year. But hopefully none of our moms will be haunted by demons and burning men on their special holiday–or any other day–the way Toni Collette is here.

Ahead of its arrival on DirecTV in just weeks, Saban Films has released a new trailer and batch of images for director Alexandre Moors’ upcoming Iraq War drama The Yellow Birds which stars Jennifer Aniston, Alden Ehrenreich, Tye Sheridan, Toni Collette, Jason Patric, and Jack Huston. Its official synopsis reads: “Against the explosive backdrop of the Iraq War, young soldiers Brandon Bartle (Alden Ehrenreich) and Daniel Murphy (Tye Sheridan) forge a deep bond of friendship. When tragedy strikes the platoon, one soldier must return home to face the hard truth behind the incident, and help a grieving mother (Jennifer Aniston) find peace. With a compelling mix of battle action and poignant drama, The Yellow Birds is an unforgettable movie whose power resonates long after the final frame.” You can watch the trailer below. Screencaptures and production stills have been added to the photo gallery. The Yellow Birds arrives on direcTV on May 17th and is set for a theatrical release on June 15th.

While I can brag about having covered all of Toni Collette’s feature and television films on this site, there has been one project I haven’t been able to find – and which seemed impossible to find. In 1994, right before shooting “Muriel’s Wedding”, Toni Collette played the lead part of Cindy in a short subject called “This Marching Girl Thing”, directed by Kelli Simpson, about a young baton twirler with the Southern Twirlettes. Cindy looks like she fits in, but she’s just beginning to feel like she doesn’t. The film, with a running time of 20 minutes, was shown at film festivals around the world, including the Chicago International Film Festival and the Los Angeles Gay & Lesbian Film Fest, but it was never widely released or shown on television. Now, with many many thanks to the wonderful Adrienne, we have found a copy and I’m pleased to present you screencaptures from this gem. An honorable mention goes to Matt Day, who plays Toni’s boyfriend in the film – you surely remember him better as Brice Nobes, the cringe-worthy one-night-stand in “Muriel’s Wedding”.
