Ignore it) T.O. actress making tracks Amy Price-Francis takes a chance on inter-species tracker By CLAIRE BICKLEY -- Toronto Sun TORONTO -- Toronto actress Amy Price-Francis has chosen sci-fi over Shakespeare. The National Theatre School grad passed on an invitation to join the Stratford company in order to take a chance on syndicated TV stardom. She's landed the female lead role in Tracker, the Canadian-made action hour just underway here for an October debut. Price-Francis (Little Men, The Associates) is playing Mel, the human sidekick to star Adrian Paul (of Highlander renown). He's an alien sent to Earth from another planet to hunt down dozens of otherworldly escaped convicts. She's a rookie reporter who has suffered some hard knocks. Inter-species sparks will certainly fly. The 22-episode show is being produced by Lions Gate Television with Gil Grant (Relic Hunter) as executive producer. It's been cleared for broadcast in 90% of the U.S. In Canada, CHUM Television has ponied up for the property and will premiere it on VR Oct. 18 with a national debut on Space later this fall. ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 7 Aug 2001 18:20:08 -0700 From: DRU <ithildin@ondragonswing.com> Subject: Re: OT: Star Wars II title announced.
