“Only Kings understand each other…” HBO released the first ever Boardwalk Empire season 4 trailer this evening before this week’s episode of Game of Thrones.  The teaser actually shows a bit more than HBO usually gives on a first time teaser such as this one so give it a watch.  Though it is short coming in at under 30 seconds there are some chilling shots that major fans will surely enjoy. Take a look: This confirms the FALL release date that we’ve predicted all along on our schedule page.  We’ll keep you up to date as far as an exact premiere slot....

It’s New Year’s Eve 1922 and the Roaring ’20s are about to begin in earnest. Despite a booming economy, alcohol is scarce in Atlantic City, competition is at its fiercest and gangster violence is heating up. The 12-time Emmy® Award winning Boardwalk Empire is back on August 20, 2013 when the third season debuts on Blu-ray with HBO Select* ($79.98), DVD ($59.99) and Digital Download. Hailed as “striking,” (Time.com) with “first-rate performances” (USA Today), Boardwalk Empire: The Complete Third Season is jam-packed with exclusive bonus...

It seems like only yesterday we were strolling down the boardwalk with Nucky and the gang trying to avoid becoming assassinated by any number of individuals and organizations.  While the long winter may have pushed HBO’s Boardwalk Empire to the back of our minds the breaking dawn can now be seen. We can confirm that Boardwalk Empire season 4 has begun principal filming! A couple of weeks ago we got wind of a NYC casting call for 20 somethings willing to work in a smoky environment and receive period-appropriate hair cuts.  Now that doesn’t give us any hints as to...

Here is an exciting addition to the cast of HBO’s period crime drama BOARDWALK EMIPRE. It is the character of J. Edgar Hoover which will be played by actor Eric Ladin. Mr. Hoover became the deputy head of the Bureau of Investigation, the precursor to the FBI, in 1921 at the age of 24 and became the acting director in 1924. So in this series he will be well on his way to being the major crime buster that he was until his death in 1972. The role is listed as a recurring role in the upcoming Season 6. Eric Ladin is no stranger to crime as he last appeared in AMC’s The Killing and is no...

The production teams at Leverage & Closer to the Hole have been releasing news of cast additions to BOARDWALK EMPIRE lately. We’ve mentioned Lombardozzi,  Livingston &  Geraghty here and we now add to that list Jeffrey Wright. In Season Four Jeffrey Wright will play the role of Valentin Narcisse, Doctor of Divinity, philanthropist, student of culture and the man who runs Harlem. Sounds like it might be a tough time with the “boys in the ‘hood” this Fall as Wright is listed as a regular to the cast. Mr. Wright is no stranger to HBO. He played Martin Luther King Jr. in the...

Another cast member has been added to the fourth season of BOARDWALK EMPIRE. Brian Geragthy, will play a character named Loren Knox. He is described as a prohibition agent with ulterior motives in his newly assigned post in Atlantic City. By that scant bit of info it makes you wonder if this agent is on the up and up. Will he get tangled up in business he shouldn’t have? We will have to wait until Fall to find out. Mr. Geraghty was in the Oscar winning The Hurt Locker as Specialist Owen Eldridge and had the recurring role of Brian Eller, the hostage taker in Season Five of TRUE BLOOD. This...

“Umm.. yeah.. we’re going to need you to go ahead and.. join the cast of HBO’s Boardwalk Empire.. That’d be great.“ HBO’s period drama, BOARDWALK EMPIRE, is now in production and as filming occurs press releases surface about cast additions. Ron Livingston is the latest actor to be listed. It sounds like he just may have a real juicy role as we learn that he plays Roy Phillips, a wealthy out-of-town businessman. What business he is in is, of course, is unclear. However, what makes this role great is that Phillips catches the eye of Gillian Darmody played by...

Actor Domenick Lombardozzi comes back to HBO in a big way. He has just been cast in a recurring role in Season Four of BOARDWALK EMPIRE as Ralph Capone. This is not a fabricated character for dramatic device either. Ralph Capone was the older brother of Al, played in the show by Stephen Graham, and was a gangster in his own right. Ralph was placed in charge of the Chicago Outfit’s bottling plants during Prohibition. The Outfit was attempting to monopolize non-alcoholic beverages and soft drinks, like ginger ale and soda water which were commonly used in mixed drinks. Though successful in...
