The legendary acting coach David LeGrant, whose career in the entertainment industry spanned nearly six decades, has passed away. He was 87 years old.
LeGrant’s many students included Broadway veterans such as Bernadette Peters and Carol Burnett as well as film and television stars from Steve Martin to Alyson Hannigan.

In a 2010 interview with Back Stage, Alyson Hannigan spoke fondly of LeGrant:

“David has these great sayings,” enthuses the “How I Met Your Mother” star, who began studying with Legrant when she was 20. “I wish I’d written them down because they were so clever and they help me every time I think of them.” Legrant has a knack for distilling his years’ worth of knowledge into memorable phrases—one of Hannigan’s favorites is “If you’re going to paint a picture, are you going to paint it with your own eye or someone’s else’s?”—that encourage actors to take charge.

“I went to this man needing more than a teacher but a grounding force in my life. And I knew five minutes into the conversation that my life was about to change.” Hannigan recalls an exercise where students had to sing a nursery rhyme, one syllable at a time. “It was terrifying,” she admits. “It was probably two months before I could get through one without crying. You were exposing yourself in such a weird way.” But the result, she says, was undeniable. “I would hold myself back so much, and he really pulled me out of that and gave me the confidence to be bigger than I thought I could be. It absolutely helped me in the audition room and helped me book ‘Buffy the Vampire Slayer,’ which was the beginning of my career, really.”

Public appearances from 1997-1999 have been added to the gallery, some previews below.

Chris Weitz has said that he has seen “really good” early footage from American Pie sequel American Reunion.

The Twilight: New Moon filmmaker, who produced the comedy series with his brother Paul, is serving as an executive producer on the latest movie.

Speaking to Digital Spy, Weitz admitted that the original cast – including Jason Biggs, Chris Klein and Alyson Hannigan – are experiencing a sense of nostalgia getting back together a decade after the original.

“All I’ve been able to do is see a few dailies from American Reunion, I think it’s going to be really good actually,” Weitz said.

“From what I hear people are having a great time on set, which is excellent because [it's] 10 year later, or more [from American Pie].

“I think that the actors have a sense of real nostalgia for the first film, which broke them the first time. It’s really sweet to see them back together again.”
