Keri Russell Archives

Mommy Gwyneth Paltrow and mommy-to-be Keri Russell were on hand for a children’s book reading today as part of the “Read Across America” campaign to promote literacy. The event was held at Village at the Lift in Park City, Utah.

Keri, 30, read “Where The Wild Things Are” by Maurice Sendak while Gwyn, 34, read Dr. Seuss‘ “One Fish Two Fish Red Fish Blue Fish.”

Gywn is also in town to promote her film, The Good Night, written and directed by her brother, Jake Paltrow. Keri is also one of the stars of Waitress, which is screening at the Sundance Film Festival.

Note: Gwyn is carrying 7-month old London Williams (not her own child). London is the son of one of the organizers for the “Read Across America” event. Thanks, Phyllis!

Hotter-than-hot Scott Speedman (Felicity, Underworld) was out at Sundance Film Festival in Park City, Utah this weekend to pimp his new movie Weirdsville. He bumped into The O.C.’s Adam Brody (pictured above) and pregnant Felicity co-star Keri Russell (pictured below). Felicity reunion!!

In Weirdsville, Scott, 31, plays slacker Dexter alongside American Beauty’s Wes Bentley, who plays the other slacker Royce. Royce and Dexter live in the strange little town of Weirdsville. When Royce’s girlfriend Matilda (Taryn Manning) overdose’s on their stash and dies, they decide to bury her in an abandoned Drive-In theater. Things get out of control when they discover Satanists performing a ritual sacrifice right where they were going to bury the body. Um, weird.

Star Magazine confirms that Felicity’s Keri Russell is pregnant! Keri’s fiance is contractor Shane Deary (not pictured). Keri and Shane (both 30) have been dating for a few years and were engaged last year.

Pictured: Keri filming her new movie The Girl in the Park in NYC on Nov. 27, 2006. The film co-stars Kate Bosworth and Sigourney Weaver and is directed by David Auburn, who wrote the screenplays for The Lake House and Proof. The Girl in the Park is expected to open later this year.

Didn’t get a chance to post these gorgeous pictures of Keri Russell this past Monday at an even sponsored by the legendary Fifth Avenue jeweler, Tiffany’s. The event marked the launch of the Tiffany & Co. 2007 Blue Book Collection in NYC. More pictures in the gallery!

Keri Russell looked stunningly beautiful last night at the Children’s Defense Fund 16th Annual Los Angeles ‘Beat the Odds Awards’ at the Beverly Hills Hotel in Beverly Hills, California. Keri, 30, wore a beautiful high-waisted, floaty dress in forest green.

The next film for Keri is Waitress, reportedly scheduled for a January 2007 release. Waitress is about a pregnant girl named Jenna (Russell), who is an unhappily married waitress in the deep south. She meets a newcomer to her town and falls into an unlikely relationship as a last attempt at happiness. Waitress also stars Nathan Fillion (Firefly) and Cheryl Hines (Curb Your Enthusiasm).

Chinese media have speculated that flashes of underwear and other "inappropriate" images in the China scenes of Mission Impossible 3 (MI3) might jeopardise the mainland release of Tom Cruise’s latest Hollywood blockbuster. Despite hitting American screens over a week ago, China’s State Administration of Radio, Film and Television (SARFT), is yet to approve MI3’s mainland distribution, the Beijing News newspaper said on Monday. Underwear hanging out to dry and other images "harmful to China" might be responsible, local papers have suggested. "In the Shanghai scenes, all the roofs and alleys have raggedy clothes hanging from bamboo sticks everywhere," said the Beijing Times.

Oh no!!!!!!!!!  Underwear hanging from bamboo sticks everywhere!!!!!!  Everbody run for your lives!!!!!!!!!!   Mission Impossible 3 stayed atop the box office this weekend with an estimated $24.5 million in weekend ticket sales. Poseidon managed a disappointing $20.3 million. Enjoy this new set of Mission Impossible 3 stills. Above are MI3 co-stars Jonathan Rhys Meyers and Maggie Q. More pictures in the gallery including Keri Russell, Laurence Fishburne and Ving Rhames.

How do you like Tom Cruise dancing atop Shanghai rooftops?

New York, NY :: Mission: Impossible 3 cast members made an appearance on MTV’s Total Request Live show at the MTV Times Square Studios yesterday afternoon where they were interviewed by MTV VJs Damien Fahey and Susie Castillo. Pictured above L to R :: Keri Russell, Tom Cruise, Laurence Fishburne, Connor Cruise (Tom Cruise’s son), Jonathan Rhys-Meyers, Maggie Q, Michelle Monaghan and Ving Rhames (not pictured).  I unfortunately don’t have the M:I3 cast on TRL video, so I have the next best thing.  Keri Russell on The Late Show with David Letterman!

Mission: Impossible III co-star Keri Russell (TV’s Felicity) said she at least partially understood public fascination with [Tom Cruise's] superstar baby. "I don’t know. I think it’s natural to feel like you know people that you see. It’s just like it’s a fairy tale. You’re watching these archetypes. You’re watching them and you’re trying to find connections with your own life, and those are two very accessible people. And I get it. But you got to let them have their kid, do their own thing."

Enjoy these new Keri Russell for Mission Impossible III pictures! The 30-year-old actress also has another film in the works called Waitress co-starring Nathan Fillion and Andy Griffith.  Keri plays Jenna, a pregnant, unhappily married waitress in the deep south that meets a newcomer to her town and falls into an unlikely relationship as a last attempt at happiness.
