Cristina Rosato is the latest addition to the cast of Turner & Hooch, but she's had an exciting career in the entertainment industry.
Her character has emerged as a firm favorite on the Disney+ series.
We got to chat with Cristina about what's ahead on Turner & Hooch Season 1, upcoming projects, and so much more.
What attracted you to Turner & Hooch?
Cristina: I was a fan of the original movie when I was a little girl. When I read the script, this character was just so fun and so different from anything I'd really ever done before in my career.
I was really excited to be challenged in this way.
The series has animals on the set. What's that like?
They're amazing. It kind of reminds me more of like, I guess, live theater because there's always just elements that are on the fly and a little bit spontaneous...

Turner & Hooch is blossoming into one of the best shows on TV.
With its perfect blend of action, humor, and heart, it's proving to be the perfect show for Disney+.
Disney+ shared an exclusive look at Turner & Hooch Season 1 Episode 8, titled "Arf Appreciation," an episode that zeroes in on the complicated love triangle between Scott (Josh Peck) and his dog trainer Erica (Vanessa Lengies), and his past romance Brooke (Becca Tobin).
The show tends to handle the bigger storylines with care, so it will be exciting to watch the full episode to see how it plays out.
"When an ambitious, buttoned-up US Marshal inherits a big unruly dog, he soon realizes the dog he didn’t want may be the partner he needs," reads the official logline for the series.

Willie Soke – raging alcoholic, womanizer and all-round low-life – raises a glass or three to the holiday season in this new Bad Santa 2 poster.
Unlike much of the marketing material to emerge for Broad Green Pictures and Mark Waters’ outrageous, long-anticipated sequel, this one-sheet (via Collider) is actually safe for work, featuring Billy Bob Thornton’s lead character passed out on a bar after toasting to the Christmas spirit long into the early hours.
Excessive drinking is but one character trait that defines Willie Soke, and in Bad Santa 2, Thornton’s despicable trickster will be up to his old ways, striking up a new partnership with literal partner-in-crime Marcus (Tony Cox) that involves Sunny Soke, the butch, borderline-abusive mother hen played with glee by American Horror Story alum, Kathy Bates. Toss in a raging nymphomaniac in Christian Hendricks’ newcomer Diane and you have a festive sequel for only select portions of the family.

Offering up a welcome tonic to the R-rated chaos of Wednesday’s sizzle reel, Broad Green Pictures has now unveiled the Sfw version of Bad Santa 2‘s new trailer that reins in the debauchery – but only a smidge.
Battling raging alcoholism and mommy issues – the second ailment can be attributed to the introduction of Kathy Bates’ butch mother hen, Sunny Soke – the studio’s long-in-development sequel heralds a comeback for Billy Bob Thornton as Willie T. Soke, the lean, mean nihilistic who will be slipping into his red jumpsuit as Father Christmas in only two months’ time.
Pulled back to the fray by his literal partner-in-crime Marcus (Tony Cox), Bad Santa 2 leans on the ol’ one last job trope by teeing up a devious scheme that involves Marcus, Willie and the scene-stealing Sunny, as they orchestrate a ploy to rob a charity, one governed by Christian Hendricks’ newcomer Diane.

Thirteen years on from Terry Zwigoff’s raunchy cult hit, Billy Bob Thornton is ready to suit up as Father Christmas once again only this time, Thornton’s chain-smoking and wholly vile narcissist Willie Soke is preparing for his wildest festive season yet.
Welcome to Bad Santa 2, Mark Waters’ (Mean Girls) long-anticipated comedy sequel that promises to take the notion of seasonal antics and blow them wildly out of proportion and, subsequently, directly into R-rated territory. Case in point: Today’s all-new – and, yes, red band – trailer for Waters’ follow-up that sheds some light on the dilemma facing Willie Soke. From mommy issues to a rampant nymphomaniac in Christina Hendricks’ charity worker, one with a “heart of gold and libido of steel.”

Billy Bob Thornton’s foul-mouthed narcissist is back and nastier than ever in the decidedly Nsfw trailer for Bad Santa 2.
Yes, he may be the foulest, most hateful Father Christmas to ever don the fluffy red suit, but in reprising a role for the first time in close to 13 years, Thornton revealed recently that he’s aiming to inject more heart into the festive sequel, while still maintaining the crude streak that ensured the 2003 original went down as a cult hit.
“I think we pushed it even a little further this time, not only in the sort of dark humor but also in the emotion. This one has more of a heart, more of a story you would say, but it also went a little further with some of the nasty stuff. We try to keep up with the times.”

With a lit cigarette in one hand and an alcoholic beverage in the other, Billy Bob Thornton makes his return in today’s first teaser for Bad Santa 2.
Pegged to hit theaters on November 23, when the black comedy sequel will bring its unique brand of festive cheer to moviegoers, Mark Waters (Mean Girls) is calling the shots behind the lens, and though 13 years have past since the original cult hit, Thornton hasn’t lost any of his charm as the bitter curmudgeon.
Indeed, many are hailing the mere existence of Bad Santa 2 as an early Christmas miracle. Long before Waters came aboard, a sequel to an R-rated seasonal hit from yesteryear was little more than a pipe dream, but low and behold, soon after Thornton confirmed he would don the big red suit once more, Broad Green Pictures and Miramax eased the wheels into motion.

The spirit of the season can be found if you really look, and Hallmark Channel's "Finding Christmas," airing Sunday, Dec. 15, proves that's true with love and fashion.
Don't expect surprises, but it's unlikely anyone who tunes in seeks chase scenes or special effects. Instead, it's a sweet, quiet story of expected and happy outcomes.
The clothes represent the film's two very different locales - Manhattan and Butters, N.C., which as of the last census had a population of 294. Costume designer Julianna Clarke was working on this movie in Canada last spring, when stores featured summer clothes.
"We have two different kinds of looks," Clarke tells Zap2it.
Siblings Ryan and Owen (Tricia Helfer, J.T. Hodges) live in Butters, where she's a veterinarian, and he's a handyman and musician.

Territories has been released in the United Kingdom as of September 12th on DVD and this reviewer hopes that the film finds a wider audience in North America - the territory that is the focus of the film. In Abbou's political and horrifying thriller five youths are dressed up in orange jumpsuits to represent those confined, tortured and likely killed in Guantanamo Bay. This is a dark look at an even darker part of humanity and the visuals are not often pretty.

28Dla is getting to the party a little bit fashionably late on this horror story, but the first trailer for Territoires, or Checkpoint, is relevant for pointing out the current troubles at the Us-Canada border. Although, most Canadian border crossers do not experience torture, as suggested by the clip, there have been some stories of Canadians being held in detention for hours on end. Director Olivier Abbou smartly points out some of the current political tensions between these two nations and horror fans should look for Abbou's message in this first trailer for Territoires.
The synopsis for Territoires is here:
"Five friends returning from a marriage in Canada return home to the United States. Not far from the border, two customs officers stop them to check their identity. Suspicious, they take their time especially with Jalil, a man of Arab origin. The situation worsens when a customs officer finds a...

Picturing a border crossing gone bad, five friends find themselves in a Guantanamo type situation, where some overzealous customs officers take them to task. You can see how events play out in a second still of Territories below, courtesy of Upcoming Horror Movies.

Suspicious, they take their time especially with Jalil, a man of Arab origin. The situation worsens when a customs officer finds a small bag of marijuana in the luggage.
