Dylan Walsh and Julian McMahon are not only making controversial waves on television as the lead stars of Nip/Tuck, but are also gradually creating buzz with their upcoming movies. Walsh's film is currently filming, so fans can expect the movie to hit the theaters later this year. Meanwhile, McMahon's project is still in pre-production stages but will most likely come up in 2009.
Walsh, who starts as Dr. Sean McNamara on Nip/Tuck, is working on The Stepfather, the remake of the 1987 thriller film of the same name. The movie centers on a teenage boy who discovers that his soon-to-be stepfather isn't all he appears to be. He then speculates that the man who fell in love with his mother might be a psycho who murdered his previous family.

Last Tuesday, Nip/Tuck aired its season ender, at least for the first part of season 5 since there are still eight remaining episodes to air in fall. The controversial medical drama averaged just under 3 million total viewers, making the episode “Candy Richards” the least-watched finale of the series in its five-season history, according to Nielsen Media Research.
While many viewers were pleased with the ender, some were disappointed given that it left many cliffhangers.

FX’s controversial medical drama, Nip/Tuck, has just wrapped up its fifth season yesterday. But production for the sixth season has already been slated for this summer, according to TV Guide. No airdate has been set, but with the writers’ strike in the can, everything should move along as scheduled. Meanwhile, fans can relive the drama as the network launches the complete season 5 of Nip/Tuck in DVD on May 20.
For those who are not familiar, Nip/Tuck is an Emmy and Golden Globe award-winning television series that follows the lives of , Sean McNamara (Dylan Walsh) and Christian Troy (Julian McMahon), two plastic surgeons, close friends and business partners who own an overwhelmingly successful plastic surgery practice. Seasons 1 to 4 was set in Miami, Florida, where the doctors attempted to bring inner peace and contentment to their patients through external cosmetic procedures. Season 5, however, followed the doctors relocating their business to Los Angeles where they struggled for success in a city where they are professionally unknown and where residents yearn for fame.

With the three-month long writers' strike seemingly about to come to a close, viewers are just eager to see an end to the drought in fresh material in primetime television. In the case of Nip/Tuck, hopefully, the much-awaited resolution of the writers' guild conflict will also mean the completion of Nip/Tuck's current, prematurely shortened season.
Prior to the start of the strike, FX had already received part of its order for Nip/Tuck. The network has since been airing the completed installments and is reportedly all set to resume working on new episodes once the writers' walkout ends.

Tonight's Nip/Tuck marks the return of one of the celebrated heroines of primetime serial drama from the 1980s. Joan Van Ark, who made a living out of portraying the ever-enduring, long-suffering meek and mild Valene Ewing on Knots Landing, guest stars in tonight's episode entitled “Lulu Grandiron.”
Van Ark reunites with fellow Knots Landing alumna, Donna Mills. They play two women who share more than just Dr. Christian Troy's (Julian McMahon) surgical expertise.

John Hensley is a familiar face to television viewers as Matt, the somewhat dysfunctional and constantly conflicted son of Nip/Tuck's two plastic surgeons, Sean McNamara (Dylan Walsh) and Christian Troy (Julian McMahon). As his character on the popular medical drama, Hensley has found himself in storylines that are often both tragically disturbed, yet inevitably laced with a fair amount of humor.
In his soon-to-be-released movie, Teeth, the Nip/Tuck co-star once again takes on a quirky and hysterical storyline, not far from some of the circumstances he's found himself in as his Nip/Tuck character.
