Danielle Harris Returning to the Small Screen to Reprise 1990s Role in “The Conners” This Month
No, she won’t be covered in blood this time. We don’t think so, at least.
In the wake of her iconic role in the Halloween franchise, Danielle Harris played a character named Molly Tilden in several episodes of “Roseanne” back in the early ’90s, a role that we’ve learned Harris will be reprising on that show’s spinoff continuation, ABC’s “The Conners“!
Danielle Harris will be playing Molly Tilden in the April 7th episode of the series that’s titled An Old Dog, New Tricks and a Ticket to Ride, wherein “Becky is working double shifts and taking classes at the community college, resulting in less time with her daughter, Beverly Rose.
“Meanwhile, Dan decides to foster an elderly dog.”
Harris writes on Instagram, “GUESS WHO’S BACK IN LANFORD?!!! It’s been a long 27 YEARS but “MOLLY TILDEN” is back stirring up ALLLLL kinds of good trouble for Darlene! This is what I’ve been working on that I’m SO DAMN excited about! I could shout it from the rooftop!”

On the horror front, “Danielle is excited to get back in the director’s seat with her currently titled feature film Sequel, which was written by British screenwriter James Moran and will be produced by Joe Dante (Gremlins) and Mark Alan of Renfield Productions. Sequel is a dark, twisted, female forward, horror comedy about seven final girls and one fateful final night.”

You know video game adaptations are hot when even Golden Axe is making the leap to the screen. And indeed it is, with Deadline reporting that the Sega Genesis video game franchise that debuted back in 1989 is getting an animated series at Comedy Central.
Comedy Central has given “Golden Axe” a 10-episode order, Deadline reports today.
The voice cast for the animated series from CBS Studios in association with Sony Pictures Television and Original Film includes Matthew Rhys (The Americans), Danny Pudi (Mythic Quest), Lisa Gilroy (Jury Duty), Liam McIntyre (Spartacus) and Carl Tart (Grand Crew).
“Described as a hilarious and loving homage to Sega’s video game series, Golden Axe follows veteran warriors Ax Battler, Tyris Flare and Gilius Thunderhead as they once again battle to save Yuria from the evil giant Death Adder who just won’t seem to stay dead. Fortunately, this time they have the inexperienced and underprepared Hampton Squib on their side.”
Mike McMahan (Star Trek: Lower Decks) and Joe Chandler (American Dad!) will co-write the first episode and executive produce the series, with Chandler serving as showrunner.
The original Golden Axe video game was released in 1989, followed by sequels in 1991, 1992 and 1993. The series got a modern day upgrade with Golden Axe: Beast Rider in 2008.
