NEW BLOG: 2012 New Beginnings...more things 2 Come!

Hey fans and friends! Gonna make this quick. Wanna update you all on what is happening. First off hope everyone is having a happy new year!!! I sure am. Devil's Double wrapped a few weeks ago and I have a new found energy and positivity and I have been learning so much about myself in the past few weeks thanks to spending time with the new woman in my life: Gina Rage! Yessss it is out there. Deal with it. Talk about it. I don't care. We are very busy promoting her new movie Scarred. The LA premiere was last Friday and it went so well...so here is what's going down:

1) Gina and I are gonna be in NYC tomorrow for the NY premiere of Scarred then that weekend we fly to the U.K. for the Jan. 27 premiere in London. The week after that we head to France for the premiere in Paris. We will be in beautiful Paris for a few weeks (including Valentine's Day!). After that i will head state side and leave her to continue the press tour for the film on her own, which will take her to Moscow, Berlin, and Italy.

2) Once i return to America (sunny Los Angeles) i will be working on TWO things and two things only.....recording the second Chants of Reign Album (totally different and new more upbeat sound)....


3) and....training for the next James Bond film. After Gina is done with her press tour she will also help me with my fight training since that is what she does best. I cannot wait for everyone to see this next 007 film. It will blow you all away.


...Dont forget to see Trust Me when it hits theaters in limited release in April. Expect a trailer soon! Also, Alien: Genesis comes out in IMAX and 3D June 8...and The Devil's Double hits theaters in November! I put alot of myself into that performance (actually BOTH performances! lol) and Oliver Stone and I think we got something special for the world!

Support and Love, see ya soon:

Michael joins new girlfriend (?) Gina Rage at 'SCARRED' premiere

Back in the fall there were rumors of Meyers and the MMA star turned actress being an item but no one saw the pair together or heard anything concrete confirming anything....until now. The two held hands and kissed each other many times last night at the L.A. premiere of Gina Rage's new film Scarred. Neither answered questions about being together but Gina did mention she is not sure what she wants to do with her future regarding acting versus returning to fighting but that 'Mike (Meyers) has been very helpful and influential in giving great advice on what I should do, but ultimately the decision is mine."

Sam Mendes in talks to direct Next Bond Film???

Oscar nominated director Sam Mendes, mostly known for serious dramas such as The Secrets of Suburbia, Monster's Ball, Road to Perdition, The Weather Man, Rendition, Frank and April, and Machine Gun Preacher (as well as his failed marriage to actress Kate Winslet), is apparently in talks to direct the next James Bond picture according to "sources" in The Daily Mail, a British newspaper. Who knows if this is true but it certainly hints at the more dramatic and less action-oriented angle this new Bond franchise seems to be headed in.

Meyers Interview Quotes from January 2012 Empire Magazine

Everyone is eagerly anticipating the trailer for Ridley Scott's "Alien: Genesis" which of course stars Michael Reese Meyers and the word is the trailer will debut at Apple.com Thursday. As a part of the promotion for the film, the cast was interviewed for the upcoming January 2012 issue of Empire magazine and here are some excerpts from Michael's part:

ON WHAT MADE HIM WANT TO JOIN ALIEN: GENESIS CAST: "It's Ridley Scott. It's Sci-Fi. Horror. Space. Anya Camilla Bella. Charlize Theron. Bradley Cooper. Idrs Elba. 3D. What else needs to be said? The story is great. The twists are great. It's dark. Smart. Scary. It will definitely have people talking. I can't wait for everyone to see it."

ON THE NEXT BOND FILM: "The script is really great. It's almost done. Takes Bond back to the 60's. Style wise. They are looking at a real prestigious director. This next one will really delve into Bond's psychological state now that he has had his heart broken. This is the turning point. When you watch the Bourne films or even some of the Bond films, they show you how lonely secret agents are. They have no family. No friends. Their whole life revolves around getting a mission, getting whatever money, weapons, and other equipment they need, going to some strange city in some foreign country, sitting in a hotel, living off takeout and Vodka and fucking some random hooker, waiting until they get the call to go kill who they need to kill. In Quantum (of Solace) we saw Bond as a young guy who never had parents who was still eager for love and family and now he is starting to see that maybe that is not meant for him. He starts to shut down emotionally. He starts to become a guy who only sees women as good for one thing. In this next one, he meets a woman who truly wants to love him. The Bond in Quantum would have left it all for her. This new Bond has trust issues and doesn't want to let her in. He is conflicted. It's a great place, emotionally, to take Bond, that I don't think we've seen before."

ON HIS DATING LIFE: "I'm like of two minds about it right now. On the one hand I feel like after everything I've been through I have seen and done it all so what's the point. Since Mel I been numb, no one has really excited me, truly excited me. Other than Kathleen Roberts. She was special. But Mel was like this amazing puzzle or rubix cube that I wanted to solve. I think alot of people who fall for a bad boy or bad girl, this is apart of the appeal. But the thing is, only one person in this world has the key. Only one person is meant to solve them. And sometimes, sadly, as much as you want it to be, that person might not be you. And you gotta accept that. I feel like a zombie sleep walking through life, waiting for someone to wake me up and shake me out of my funk. (Someone who) really challenges me, excites me, impresses me. Sometimes women in your life can spoil you and you get stuck wanting someone to match up to them. But another part of me just wants the comfort of having a girlfriend, a wife. Having that special someone to talk to everyday at the end of the day. A true partner that you can rely on. The search can get exhausting. I get really envious of the dynamic I see a husband and wife have. How they make decisions together and the teamwork vibe they have. You truly aren't complete until you find your soulmate. That's how I feel. I was joking with a friend the other day, how I might do The Bachelor, haha. Try something different. We'll see."

ON WHAT MADE HIM STORM OFF THE DEVIL'S DOUBLE SET: "Oliver Stone and I have clashed alot while making this film. He is a hard person to work for. He demands alot but he can also be very indecisive and I prefer a director who sticks to one thing that he wants instead of changing his mind all the time. I play two characters which is hard enough and I respect Stone's body of work and knowledge of film and I hope we can pull it together. That day he was just pissing me off and I threw a temper tantrum and walked off. Almost quit the film. We had to stop shooting for a week so I could cool off. I was ready to knock him out."

Ridley Scott confirms and elaborates on Meyers Injuries

Last night director Ridley Scott (pictured above on the set of Alien: Genesis with star Anya Camilla Bella) celebrated his 74th birthday at Los Angeles' Katsuya restaurant with his girlfriend and at the nearby Grauman's Chinese Theater there was a private screening of the film's new teaser trailer which was exclusively shown to a handful of critics and select fans who won an online contest. Afterwards Ridley held a brief Q & A and while the biggest topic of discussion was the leaked version of the trailer by a 20th Century Fox employee (whom Ridley said was "swiftly dealt with"...aka FIRED), he also touched on Michael's injuries on set.

When asked if there's any truth to the rumor that Michael was hurt on set Scott replied: "Well he had a bad scrape. He was riding the motorbikes some of the crew on the ship ride during a scene and he wiped out. He crashed, tipped over, or whatever. It looked pretty bad. He broke his left shoulder, and badly sprained both feet. But the next week he was back and ready to go. He's a quick healer. He was a trooper. I'm sure he will be fine." He was then asked if Meyers ever complained of pain or any discomfort on set and Ridley said "No. Never. He never told me. He just kept on going. Everyone complained about the bio suits, how hard they were to walk in or what have you, but that was a given and something everyone had to deal with, not just him."
