>TRAVIS WATCH

So this is what basically has happened to Travis within the last few years. Rocky Point was filmed and everything however it wasn't picked up. The screener (first episode/pilot) was leaked online and I have read some fans raving about how good it was.

Travis also acted in an Australian film called Guest, the film has yet to be released and no word has been made about a release date and whether or not it will make its way state side. The films plot line is A young couple on the run hold up in a country estate with a hostage in tow. In addition to Guest this past spring (2006) Travis was cast again in another pilot this time for FOX. Southern Comfort

"SOUTHERN COMFORT (FOX) - Travis Fimmel (John Clayton on "Tarzan") and Eric Roberts (Will Butler on "Less Than Perfect") have both scored roles in the drama pilot, about the wife (Madeleine Stowe) of a Southern mobster who takes over the business when her husband goes to prison. Roberts will play the show's patriarch, a man who - unknown to his family - ran a crime syndicate. Fimmel then will play a young man who works for the father and serves as a potential love interest to Lindy (Jessica Strop, the daughter of Roberts's character). Reiley McClendon also stars in the 20th Century Fox Television-based hour, which Greg Yaitanes is directing a script by creators Joe Gayton and Tony Gayton."

However when FOX announced their fall line up it did not include SC, but maybe it will be a mid season placement who knows?  In a May 19, 2006, article in the Memphis, Tenn., Commercial Appeal newspaper, producer Dennis Murphy said, "It was so close to being accepted, it was a photo finish..." and he blamed "a confluence of scheduling and marketing" for the pilot's rejection. He said "Southern Comfort" was praised by everyone who saw it, but Fox was unsure how to market the show, which wasn't as violent or edgy as other Fox crime dramas.
