After School
11.23.2005

Jonathan is about to begin working on his first professional project as, not only an actor, but also co-producer! The documentary titled After School is about the rising number of young female teachers having affairs with their teenage students. Owen LaFave, husband of Debra LaFave who has admitted to having relations with a 14-year-old pupil, is working with the documentary team, which also includes Jonny's mother Rhonda as associate producer. The idea is to create a film within the documentary wherein Jonathan will play the 14-year-old student. For more information visit the official After School website.

Jonathan's A Work Of Art

On the evening of Saturday September 24, as part of the San Diego Film Festival, Jonathan attended the 944 Magazine Actors Ball. Jonathan got to meet contemporary pop artist Jamie Roxx, who had painted fantastic portraits of some of the celebrities in attendance, including Jonathan. Jamie says of Jonathan,

"He has really grown into a great 15 year old. He was funny. And his mom is so sweet and his sister is super cool too. Oh, and the really good thing, not only did he and his family love this painting, they ordered some more. So that is always a good thing."

Pets And Their Stars

Proceeds from the event are going to several different animal charities. Jonathan took his dog Edgar, however Jonny's other two dogs, Misty and Taz, stayed at home because, according to Jonathan's mom, "they're not so well behaved!"

Jonathan's upcoming movie Knights Of Impossingworth Park is now set to shoot in October in London and Vietnam. The postponement from earlier this year was due to the fact that Sir Ben Kingsley has a film currently shooting that won't finish until then. Jonny had the pleasure of meeting Sir Ben and is thrilled at the chance to work with him.

Utah City Guide Interview

Gone are Jonathan Lipnicki's trademark round glasses and short spiky hair. And with them have gone his opportunities for child roles in films and television series. Now 14, Lipnicki says he's looking forward to playing older characters and acting in more challenging material. "I knew I couldn't keep doing that routine forever, that I'd get too old for those kinds of parts. I'm simply moving forward with the next phase of my career. I'm going to prove what kind of actor I can be," he said during an interview in the lobby of Hotel Monaco.

Is Zachary Beaver Coming To Your Town?
01.17.2005

As a trial run, before national release, When Zachary Beaver Came To Town will be showing in select towns throughout America as of this Friday, January 21 2005. The movie, shot in 2002, will be screened in Salt Lake City, Utah and Wichita, Kansas among others. The film's director John Schultz wants to see what a "typical family town" would think to the family-friendly movie, before it is shown to the rest of the country. The trial is simply due to low budget; because the movie was made independently, costing less than $2 million, immediate nationwide release would be a huge risk. So, if you are lucky enough to live in an area where When Zachary Beaver Came To Town is being previewed, make sure you take the opportunity to see this great movie.
