American, Jersey Girl Ali Larter has been in the entertainment business for over 10 years now and after being discovered on a faux magazine cover for Esquire Magazine, Ms. Larter has not stopped since. You probably notice Ali from the hit films Final Destination, Legally Blonde, Varsity Blues and most recently Resident Evil: Extinction. Also, Ali is currently a series regular on the award-winning tv show, Heroes on NBC. Ali starred in the box office smash Obsessed in 2009 where she co-starred alongside Beyonce. In 2010, Ali is going to starring in sequel Resident Evil: Afterlife alongside Milla Jovovich and Wentworth Miller.
Ali is said to be reprising her role as Claire Redfield in the new Resident Evil: Afterlife film! This is really great news, as we will be able to see Ali on the big screen yet again, and in another blockbuster no less. Read for more details below:
“Prison Break” hunk Wentworth Miller and “Heroes” babe Ali Larter have joined the cast of “Resident Evil: Afterlife”, the fourth film in the franchise says Blackfilm.
Cast member Boris Kodjoe told the site the news whilst doing promotion for his work in this week’s sci-fi thriller “Surrogates”. In the film, Kodjoe says “I play the leader of the survivors in Los Angeles. Milla Jovovich’s character, Alice, is roaming the world looking for survivors and she’s wound up in LA, which has been burning for three years. She comes across an LA jail surrounded be these half-dead with a couple of survivors trapped inside. She lands on top of the roof and partners up with me to fight the guys that are coming after them. We’re trying to get all of the survivors out of the jail to safety.”
Miller plays one of the trapped people whom they lock up in a cell as they aren’t sure if he’s succumbed to the virus or not. He becomes a key element of their eventual escape. Larter reprises her role of Claire Redfield from the previous film “Resident Evil: Extinction”.
Shooting kicks off this week in Toronto under the helm of returning first film director Paul W.S. Anderson.
Ali’s first film, Varisty Blues is celebrating it’s 10 Year anniversary by releasing a deluxe edition featuring a whole new bunch of features, including an unseen Ali Larter audition! It will be out on both DVD and Blu-ray on the 15th September. The film also stars Ali’s friend, Amy Smart who persuaded Ali to audition for a role in the movie. You can view further details about the release below:
Paramount Home Entertainment has announced new DVD and Blu-ray releases of Varsity Blues which stars James Van Der Beek, Jon Voight, Paul Walker, and Amy Smart. Each will be available to own from the 15th September. Extras will include commentary with Director Brian Robbins and Producers Tova Laiter and Mike Tollin, a Football is a Way of Life: The Making of Varsity Blues featurette, deleted scenes, an Ali Larter Audition, additional features (“Two-A-Days the Ellis Way”, “QB Game Analysis”, “Billy Bob with No Bacon”), and the theatrical trailer.
This is the part that I love, Obsessed promotion has begun and Ali has started the interviews and more should come online daily. Ali recently talked to Tufts Daily about her role in Obsessed and how she was shooting both Heroes and Obsessed at the same time, maybe that’s why she had little screen time in Volume 3. Also, she announced that she is about to start a film with Ed Burns where she plays a “woman who goes after what she wants”. I currently do not know what film it is, but it’ll be announced shortly I imagine. You can read the exciting article in the brand new press archive, to read click here. Please comment here to tell me if you like the new look of the press archive, which I will be updating a lot more with articles I’ve missed.
Update: The Obsessed premiere will take place on April 23rd in New York City and Ali will be in attendance, also don’t forget to check out ET tonight for an exclusive behind the scenes look at the film.
The promotion for Ali’s latest movie Obsessed has got well under way. First off, you can visit a viral site called GetObsessedwithAli.com where you can fill in your friends details and Ali will become Obsessed with them. It’s really good fun! Also, you can view a four minute featurette below or click here where the cast talk about the film. The official site is now fully active, so you can view that now. To come: TV Spots, Clips and more.
Get ready for another new episode of Heroes tonight as Ali is captured and tortured in “Building 26″. The episode seems to feature a lot of Tracy looking a lot like Jessica I may add. I have added three episode stills from the episode and you can view the promo below. Furthermore, I have added five clips for last weeks episode which you can view in the Video Network. In other updates, I have added some candids from January and captures of deleted scenes from House On Haunted Hill. Enjoy!
I have added to the gallery some very rare captures of Ali in her 2005 independant movie, Confess. Ali plays Olivia Averill, a communications major doing her thesis on internet hacking. The film is not a masterpiece, but both Ali and co-star Eugene Byrd play there roles phenomenonly and Ali gets to broaden her acting skills. There’s 300+ caps of Ali and they may contain spoilers. Furthermore, they are not the highest quality, but hopefully we’ll get some soon.
As we previously announced, Ali had won the Grace Allen Award for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Drama Series for Heroes! Yesterday she stepped out for the event and received the award. She is looking amazing these days and she seemed delighted with receiving her award. Congrats Ali! Also on other news, the Heroes Season 3 premiere is now airing on September 22nd, a week later than was previously announced.

"When it comes down to it, at the end of the day, I need more out of my life and I need to push myself harder. And if at the end of the day I don't have it, then I don't have it, but at least I'm going to put myself out there. If I fail, I'm going to fail terrifically."
