 Here’s an update on the upcoming movie From Embers. It has been nearly a year since we first heard about this film and things have clearly progressed in recently weeks.
First of all, a release date of 25th October 2024 is being shown for the film. It is marked as being ‘limited’. This could mean that it will just be available to the viewing public in a theater in Los Angeles for a few days to make it eligible for the Oscars. Within the industry this is very common practise for smaller films and even streaming service releases for that reason.
The drama written and directed by Kate Bohan has also, apparently, been submitted to a number of film festivals around the world. We’ll try and bring you news on those as and when.
To go along with that news we also have a set of promotional stills and a poster. You can see selected highlights (the images with Kathryn in them) above and below, and get a much better look in the KM UK Gallery HERE.
  
 Sadly, it seems that much like the ghosts at the end of each episode, the possibility of a new version of Cold Case is fading.
The TV Line website, picking up on the briefest of mentions on a Deadline site wrap-up of CBS-related news, is reporting that the Cold Case reboot is not going forward. We posted about the project being in development back in April.
There was never any definitive news on the project but the talk was of a new location and cast with original creator Meredith Stiehm back script writing. Danny Pino was rumoured to have been contacted about reprieving his role as Detective Scott Valens. Kathryn was not similiarly referred to but you would have think that would have been a target for any new production.
A large number of TV show projects are in various stages of development all the time. Most don’t get made. Cold Case was a strong enough premise, with good writing, acting, and a different tone to so many cop shows. It was one of the lucky ones.
It is interesting to note that the initial April report on Deadline about this new show being developed is one of the most commented on stories they’ve had in a long time. Few articles since have come even close to it. That clearly indicates the love for Cold Case and the wish to see it revived.

 Thanks to AJ for passing along the tip that Kathryn is due to attend a fan convention event in Los Angeles in October.
The Hollywood Show has been around a long time, having first started in 1979, and now hosts multiple events per year mainly at the Marriott Burbank Airport Hotel in LA.
Kathryn was recently added to the list of around 70 celebrities from many eras and genres of the entertainment world that will be at the next scheduled convention.
The event will be on Friday and Saturday the 18th-19th of October, running from 4pm-8pm on the Friday and 10am-6pm on Saturday. Though it is up to the individual star the hours they do and there will likely be fees.
It is not entirely clear to me how these events run but I would presume you get to do meet & greets, get autographs, and have photographs taken with your celebs of choice.
Looking at the extensive list of planned attendees it is nice to see that you could have a mini Cold Case reunion as Tracie Thoms was also recently added. And to really go back into the archives Tim Matheson, who started with and directed Kathryn in the TV movie Hell Swarm, as well as several episodes of Cold Case, is included. Check the KM UK archives for more on Hell Swarm.
If you are already planning to go this convention or will do so now, please let us know. We’d love to hear more about it.

It’s the sort of story that crops up every so often, followed by a chorus of fans demanding something different.
This time the news seems to have a bit more credibility, but has already lead to the alternative demands.
Yes, it has been reported that the American TV network CBS is looking at bringing back Cold Case. Any such return would be a reboot not a continuation, so a new show with a new cast but with the same basic premise and key features. New cast means no Kathryn, Danny, Tracie, John, Thom, or Jeremy. Although, if a new show is set in the same “universe” there is always a chance we may get to catch up with any the original team via guest starring roles.
The original Cold Case creator Meredith Stiehm is said to be heavily involved, as you would hope, writing the script for a show set 15 years later and in the opposite corner (south west) of the US from the original. Setting it closer to Los Angeles is bound to make production easier. The regular decamping of cast and crew to Philly to film some of the outdoor scenes for Cold Case must have hit the budget amongst other things.
Keep in mind that even if this new show ever happens, so many don’t make it, we are talking quite a long time away from now.

 The official trailer for the movie From Embers. has been released.
The previously released trailer is marked as a teaser. This new one is the same length but contains more elements which give hints of significant plot points. Consider that a standard ‘spoiler warning’ in case you want to go into the movie with less knowledge.
A handful of new screencaps from the video are in the KM UK Gallery HERE.
You can watch the new trailer HERE on writer/director Kate Bohan’s YouTube channel.
