Travelers

Hundreds of years from now, surviving humans discover how to send consciousness back through time, into people of the 21st century, while attempting to save humanity from a terrible future.
AnneThe adventures of a young orphaned girl living in the late 19th century. Follow Anne as she learns to navigate her new life on Prince Edward Island, in this new take on L.M. Montgomery's classic novels.
SirenA mermaid-obsessed town is turned upside down when a mysterious girl appears and begins wreaking havoc.
SupernaturalTwo brothers follow their father's footsteps as "hunters", fighting evil supernatural beings of many kinds, including monsters, demons, and gods that roam the earth.
I’ve added captures from Travelers 3.04 to the gallery. Warning for those that have not yet watched season three, there are spoilers abound. I’ve left them out of the preview images but as soon as you click on the gallery links, you will see them.
I’ve updated the sidebar with a few new projects.
Amanda will once again be directing and acting(!) in Travelers season three. We do have to find out what her character is up to after all. Did she kidnap Traveler 001’s kid? Is she really a good character or has she turned to the dark side?
Then, of course, there’s Supernatural. Seems she’s impressed a few people on this show and she’ll be back to direct at least one episode for season 14. It’ll be episode 10.
And big news for Woodland (formerly Crypto), it’s having it’s world premiere at the Whistler film festival next month. Passes for the festival are already on sale, but single film tickets won’t be available until November 14.
Admin note: I just wanted to let you guys know how sorry I am for letting this site get so out-of-date. I’ve gotten so many messages about how it’s everyone’s favorite place to get Amanda news (or was I guess) and that makes me so happy to hear. I really want to make this site the best place for Amanda news again. In an effort to make this place your one stop shop for all things Amanda, there’s a new staff member here at ATO. She compiled this update of all the things I haven’t updated you on this year.
What has Amanda been up to this year, so far?
The year started with an interview Sabrina Furminger held with Amanda. In it Amanda talks about her latest projects but also about struggles as a woman in the film industry. It’s a wonderful interview, go read it here.
In January she directed the episode “A Most Holy Man” (13.15) of Supernatural. She talked at ATX about how she made the guys wear suits during the whole episode: “I wanted to look at them looking nice.”

In February, she directed a yet unknown number of episodes of Anne with an E. Season 2 will premiere on Netflix on July 6, 2018 and on CBC on September 23, 2018

During March she was again on the set of Supernatural to shoot an episode, this time in front of the camera (13.19, Funeralia). Naomi is back!

March was a special month for Stargate fans. Joseph Malozzi initiated several twitter storms for fans to show MGM that there is still interest in Stargate. #StargateRising did trend in several countries and temporarily even worldwide. Amanda as well as several other actors from the SG franchise joined the twitter storm. Her tweets:
#StargateRising what??!! You guys are so cool.

In April, Amanda was in London for the convention ATX. It was the last convention by GABIT Events in this format (with Amanda as only guest) but the conventions will go on with Amanda and some other guest, in about two years. The total of the weekend raised for Hearing Dogs for the Deaf and Sanctuary for Kids was £47,000.
It was here where Amanda officially announced that Sanctuary for Kids will be closing by the end of the year. The plan for S4K is to divide this last wave of donations between the charities. That way all of them will be left with a financial safety cushion/safety net. While that was a particularly sad piece of information (you guys have helped my fundraising partner and I raise over $15,000 for S4K), that just means we’ll have to think up some amazing fundraisers for this new charity.
Right after the convention, she went to the set of Travelers where she’s been directing four episodes of season 3, as well as, acting in an unknown number of episodes. Thanks to several members of the cast being active on twitter and instagram, we got some lovely photos and videos of Amanda on the set.

Amanda participated in a fundraiser, Straight out of Sci Fi on May 27 in Vancouver. The fundraising is for Luke, a boy with severe Acquired Aplastic Anemia (AAA) which is a rare, life-threatening bone marrow disease. The event raised $5,638 and the gofundme fundraiser is still going on

I’ve added HD logoless captures from episode 13.19 (otherwise known as Amanda’s surprise appearance) of Supernatural to the gallery. I believe this makes the gallery completely up-to-date with captures.
I’ve added HQ logoless captures from all three episodes of Travelers that Amanda has been in. More updates coming this week. I’m hoping to have the site up-to-date by next weekend.
