Hey Everybody,
Many of you know that our son, Ben, is an actor in LA. You probably remember him as a little boy running around the store. Well, November starts the beginning of several TV and film appearances for Ben, now 25, and as proud parents we just had to share his success!
Ben will be appearing in a small role on “HOUSE” which airs on Fox TV on Monday nights. He appears in episode #8 which is scheduled for November 16th. Today he began filming a major guest starring role on another hit Fox TV show, BONES, which airs on Thursday nights. He will be in episode #11, tentatively scheduled for December 10, or December 17th.
Now airing is a national TV commercial for the Build A Bear stores. It will be running through Christmas so you might catch him when you least expect it:) If you see it, let us know!
His film debut is in a Disney Christmas Movie Release on DVD called “Santa Buddies”. Santa Buddies is being released on Tuesday, November 24th right before Thanksgiving.
Hopefully you’ll be seeing a lot more of Ben in the coming months and years! Thanks for sharing in our enthusiasm:)
Okay, so on to All About News: This week marks the beginning of the Blackest Night Promotional Lantern Rings with the arrival of the “Yellow Ring”. The rings are LIMITED and are first come first served to those who purchase the Blackest Night Tie in book for the week. This week the book is Doom Patrol #4.
