Jurassic World and Law & Order: SVU Star BD Wong Now Has A Hunky Hubby

October 11, 2018 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

BD Wong is one of those actors who’s popped up in all manner of things, while never being the main attraction himself. As a result he’s very recognisable even if you don’t know his name. His resume includes over 200 episodes of Law & Order: SVU, as well as the likes of Gotham, Mr. Robot and Oz. Notably he’s also the only actor to appear (as the same character) in both Jurassic Park and Jurassic World, as geneticist and ‘creator’ of the dinos, Dr. Henry Wu.

Now he can add ‘husband’ to his illustrious resume, as the actor married his longtime partner, Richert John Frederickson Schnorr, in a ceremony in New York last Sunday. Schnorr posted a pic of their first kiss (see below), along with the words, ‘It really kinda is the happiest day of your life. Thanks to my family and friends for the love and words and support and dance moves. Thanks to @msanamatronic for the grooves. Thanks to @kealasettle for the pipes. Thanks to @liachangphotography for the 📸 Thanks to @wongbd for loving me #schwong’

And yes, that does mean they has Scissor Sister’s Ana Matronic DJ-ing the wedding, as well as The Greatest Showman’s Keala Settle singing (although no word on whether she sang This Is Me). Sounds like it was quite the shindig!

The couple met back in 2010 at a singles mixer night, which if nothing else goes to show that even if you’re a famous actor, you’ve still got to put yourself out there to find love! 35-year-old Scnorr works as the director of digital media for the New York Public Library.

Massive congratulations to them both. [Read more…]

Out Actor B.D. Wong Is Coming Back For Jurassic World

March 18, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

bd-wongThere have been a lot of people wondering if the likes of Sam Neill or Jeff Goldblum would return for Jurassic Park. It doesn’t look like either of them will, but that doesn’t mean there’ll be nobody from the earlier films in the movie, as director Colin Trevorrow has confirmed that at least one character from the very first movie will be back.

He told IGN, “I know a lot of fans want to see the original characters back. They’re iconic. But I respect those actors too much to shoehorn them into this story for my own sentimental reasons. Jurassic Park isn’t about the bad luck of three people who keep getting thrown into the same situation. The only reason they’d go back to that island is if the screenwriters contrived a reason for them to go. But there is a character from the first film who makes sense in our world. This hasn’t been announced yet, but B.D. Wong will be returning as Dr. Henry Wu. He had a much larger role in the original novel, he was the engineer of this breakthrough in de-extinction. He spent two decades living in Hammond’s shadow, underappreciated. We think there’s more to his story.”

B.D. Wong’s Wu only appeared in the first movie, talking to Sam Neill and co. about how Ingen created the dinos and what they’d done to ensure they don’t breed or go on the rampage (not enough, as it turned out). He certainly makes sense for the new movie, which is said to take place on the original island which has bounced back from disaster to becomes a fully functioning dinosaur theme park.

Wong joins a cast that also includes Chris Pratt, Idris Elba, Bryce Dallas Howard, Ty Simpkins, Nick Robinson, Vincent D’Onofrio and Irrfan Khan.

Trevorrow also talked the characters being playedby Chris Pratt and Bryce Dallas Howard. saying “He’s a classic hero in a very modern context. He’s the guy who will get you through the jungle alive – but like Malcolm, Grant and Sattler, he’s an expert in a scientific field that’s connected to our story. The character allows us to explore some new ideas about our relationship with these animals, without losing the humor and sense of adventure. He’s a great contrast for Bryce Dallas Howard’s character, who starts off very corporate, very controlled. Until the running and screaming starts. Then they need each other.”

He also says they’re going to be a little unusual in technical terms too, taking a step back from the digital world that moviemaking has become. “We’re shooting 35mm and 65mm film,” he says. “We’re also using an aspect ratio that hasn’t been seen theatrically in a very long time. The movie will be presented in 2 to 1. It’s basically a middle ground between 2.35 and 1.85. It allows us enough height to fit humans and dinosaurs into a single frame, without giving up that sense of scope. It’s very close to the ratio of the digital IMAX screens, so it will look great in large format. I think other filmmakers will want to give it a try when they see how it looks. It’s very comfortable.”
