| 2021-09-21 - 3:57 pm - Terence Hill finishes filming Don Matteo |
 |
Last saturday an era came to an end after 22 years. We had the opportunity to be there in Spoleto, Umbria, when Terence Hill's last take for his hit series Don Matteo was shot in the afternoon in the church of Santa Eufemia. After the emotional last take, the whole crew celebrated their long-time leading actor first spontaneously in the church and later on the forecourt at a champagne reception. Producer Luca Bernabei thanked Terence Hill in a speech and of course Terence Hill thanked the crew afterwards for the great cooperation in the last years. Terence Hill's last day of shooting ended with a group photo of the crew on the cathedral steps of Spoleto. For Hill, this day marked the end of a significant period in his film career after 13 seasons with a total of 259 episodes. However, he is not thinking of retirement now, but will devote himself to new projects with a little distance. Meanwhile, the series "Don Matteo" continues with a successor. We have summarised our impressions of the set and the emotional last take in a small report for the database. Enjoy reading!

 |
Oliver Onions released their new version of "Dune Buggy" as a single this morning at midnight sharp. Guido and Maurizio put the pedal to the metall and deliver a very rocking version of the old classic. It serves as a foretaste of their upcoming album "Future Memorabilia", which will be released in October. By the way, the two likeable singers will also be guests at the Spencerhill fan meeting starting next weekend. We are looking forward to seeing them!
And now turn up the speakers and let the buggy roll:

| 2021-08-09 - 10:09 am - Terence Hill is honorary citizen of Pomponesco |
Last Saturday, Terence Hill received a special honour. The small town of Pomponesco named the actor the first honorary citizen of its town history. Terence Hill gave the town national fame in 1983 when he decided to shoot his film Don Camillo here during his directorial debut. A screening of the film was held that evening in the town's central square, Piazza XXIII Aprile (23 April Square). Beforehand, Terence Hill was received by the mayor in the town hall, where he was presented with the certificate of honorary citizenship. Fans of the film are advised to visit the town. Although it is very small, it has hardly changed in the last 40 years, so that even today you have the feeling that Don Camillo could turn up on his motorbike at any moment. |

| 2021-06-29 - 1:15 pm - The life of Bud Spencer as Graphic Novel |
 |
In November 2021, a graphic novel about the life of Bud Spencer will be published in Italy. The graphic novel will be drawn by Roberto Lauciello, the texts will be written by Marco Sonseri and the 112-page work will be published by ReNoir Comics. There will also be a foreword by Cristiana, Diamante und Giuseppe Pedersoli.
The publisher writes about the content:
How many actors can say they have had a life as adventurous as that of the characters they have played on screen? Few, very few. Among them, Carlo Pedersoli stands out, an Olympic-level swimmer, truck driver in South America and above all, hero in dozens of films based on humour and fistfights. A happy marriage, a film career that started almost by accident, a few diet attempts and a lot of binge eating. Little Luca meets him on a magical day at an airport and is entranced by his life story. A unique story, funny and fascinating, like those that made Bud Spencer a myth for generations of viewers.

| 2021-03-14 - 10:38 am - Marvelous Marvin Hagler is dead |
 |
Former boxer and actor Marvelous Marvin Hagler is dead. Terence Hill fans know Hagler as Hill's partner in the action comedy "Virtual Weapon". He also starred in the Italian action films "Indio" and "Indio 2 - The Revolt" in 1989 and 1990. However, Hagler became internationally known not as an actor but as a professional boxer. Hagler is considered one of the best middleweight boxers of all time. From 1980 to 1987 he was undefeated world champion in this weight category. He won 62 of his 67 professional fights. Yesterday he died unexpectedly at his home in New Hampshire. He was 66 years old.

 |
The Bud Spencer Museum was supposed to open last year, but then the pandemic cancelled all plans. But now we are in a positive mood again and are relaunching the idea with old passion and new energy: On 27 June 2021, the fifth anniversary of Buddy's death, the museum in Berlin will open its doors and will offer you with the support of the Pedersoli family exclusive insights into the life of the unforgotten actor, competitive swimmer, songwriter, pilot and writer Bud Spencer. In front of the museum, a life-size statue of Bud Spencer will greet the fans, there will be an official fan shop and visitors will also find food and drinks in the style of Bud. In addition to the normal museum activities, there will be various special events on the weekends, such as concerts with music from the films or film screenings in the museum's own cinema lounge. You can find all further information on the museum's homepage. We look forward to see you!
