Birthday bash

It was director Renny Harlin’s ("Cleaner") birthday party Thursday and local John F. Daniel was there, schmoozing with actor Thomas Jane ("The Mist," "Deep Blue Sea" and "The Punisher.") The location: "Undisclosed," answered Daniel. Jane and several actors in "The Mist" were shooting a block away and stopped in after they wrapped for the night.

Daniel worked in "Harold and Kumar 2," and was cast in "The Mist," but cut the day before rehearsals. (They don’t tell you why.) However, he didn’t pout. "It was nice to at least be able to meet some of the actors since I wasn’t going to be in the film," said Daniel.

Sounds like fun to me.

Anyone else have star stories or photos they would share? Send ‘em in.
