A number of items from our signing with Sigourney Weaver are now live. Additional items will be added within the next few weeks so please check back soon for some never before seen product and limited editions!

Ms. Weaver was a true delight to work with and was honored by the many fans who Pre-Ordered personalized photos. She graciously took the time to complete all inscription requests and those who pre-ordered will be thrilled with her attention to quality, detail of her signature and clarity of inscriptions.

She also shared several stories and insight on her career and costars. Did you now that Tim Allan owns one of the complete stage pieces from an Alien film? Tim's a huge sc-fi fan and one day, while filming Galaxy Quest, he had it delivered and setup for Sigourney to autograph. Another fact we learned was that she presently owns her complete costumes from all of the Alien films and a dog head from Ghostbusters as one of her prized film possessions!

We thank Ms. Weaver for taking the time during her busy schedule to complete the signing and wish her the very best in what is already a remarkable career.

2010-02-08T19:15:00.000-08:00

From Hollywood Reporter: Eric Bana is going back to action movie territory. The Australian actor is in negotiations to star opposite Saoirse Ronan ("The Lovely Bones") in "Hanna," Focus Features' tale of a teenage assassin being directed by Joe Wright ("Atonement").Bana will play Ronan's father in the story of a 14-year-old Eastern European girl saved from a CIA breeding camp and raised by her dad to be a cold-blooded killing machine. After finding peace with a French family, the girl is dragged back to her father's world, and she must fight her way to a free life.

Bana last appeared in Judd Apatow's comedy-drama "Funny People" and the romance "The Time Traveler's Wife." However, the Aussie made his American movie mark in such films as "The Hulk" and sword-and-sandal epic "Troy" and gained his action spy movie cred with "Black Hawk Down" and "Munich."

Autographs will be available for a nominal fee and photos of Adkins from several of his films will also be available at the show (mail order will be available for those who cannot attend).

First Image from 2010 Predator Film

2010-01-31T08:32:00.000-08:00

The first image of the redesigned Predators from Robert Rodriguez's Predators 2010 film is scene here. The film will be a direct sequel to Predator 2 and disregards the storylines from AVP and AVP 2. Film is scheduled to hit theaters July 7, 2010 and stars Adrien Brody, Topher Grace, Danny Trejo and Laurence Fishburne.

The film could very well be what the franchise needs. The inclusion of Brody, Grace and Fishbourne leads one to believe that the characters will be more complex than its 1990 counterpart and with improved CGI, it should prove entertaining. We look forward to its release!

THE DARK KNIGHT JOINS CELEBRITY AUTHENTICS

2009-04-29T14:42:00.000-07:00

We've been working on this for a while and we are pleased to announce that Christian Bale has joined the Celebrity Authentics team of autograph exclusives! I've always enjoyed Christian's work and the realm of potential Batman product he could sign is fantastic with posters, batarangs, batmobiles, etc. - all to be signed by Batman himself! With the thousands of fake Bale autographs being sold, Christian wanted us to let everyone know that this will be the first and only time he has ever signed a photo or item without personalizing it to the fan's name. So if you see a 'Christian Bale' signed item with his name only, unless it is affixed with a Celebrity Authentics hologram, Christian has advised that it is not genuine. Pre-Sale for Bale's signed items will begin early Fall and is expected to sell out quickly.

We are so far behind in blogging it is ridiculous..and daunting. I will do my best to be more consistent but it's been difficult with travelling, different time zones, etc. I hope to now begin posting a blog at least three times a week - we'll see. Just returned from Beverly Hills (love that area) and our signing with Eric Bana. Fantastic guy and if you ever have a chance to meet and spend time with him you will not be disappointed. He graciously took the time to add 'Nero' to his name on every Star Trek item that he signed and was careful about signature

quality and placement. He mentioned how he's been amazed by the fan response and the 'machine' behind the Star Trek film. It's the biggest he's been a part of to date. With five film's coming out this year, he's found himself at times running on fumes but it's been equally exciting. Our signing with Eric was his first and product will go on sale on celebrityauthentics.com on May 1 with most items available in limited editions.

Done for now. Tomorrow I'll blog and announce another blockbuster Celebrity Authentics exclusive!

We are also in the process of finalizing several new autograph agreements with hi-profile celebrities and expect to announce names and details in the coming days (we'll announce them first on this blog then shortly afterwards on the website). Also wrapping up exciting product agreements for our upcomiong signing with Robert Downey Jr., Michael Keaton and others. I hope to feature some advance image previews in the next week or two.
