Dear Fans (especially all message board members),

I hope you are all happy and well and that 2010 has kicked off to a super start for you all.
I have never felt better and feel that this is going to be a very special year.
London is cloudy but my heart feels full of sunlight.
I am currently preparing for a new project which is unbelievably groovy.
TOP SECRET at present but more will be revealed…
You guys will be the first to know.

Love and laughter,
Sophia x

This is a bit late, but I only recently came across it. When Tristan & Isolde was shown on Channel4 in the UK just before Christmas, the Daily Mail’s supplement magazine Weekend featured a small portrait about Sophia Myles in the TV listing.

There is a problem with the site’s newsletter so be sure to either use the RSS feed or follow us on Twitter to be informed of any news and/or updates on sophiamyles.org.

Exciting news: Sophia Myles has a new job! Congratulations! Of course we all can’t wait to see Sophia Myles back in action and I’m sure we would all love to know what it is. But her job is top secret at the moment and will be announced as soon as possible.

In the meantime, look at some pictures of Sophia Myles leaving the Royal Haymarket Theatre in London with her good friend Anna Friel after seeing her on stage in ‘Breakfast at Tiffany’s‘ on November 30, 2009.

Many thanks Natalie for this information. As you may know a 21 year old Sophia Myles starred in an episode of long-running UK TV-Series ‘Heartbeat‘ in the Christmas episode No Hiding Place back in 2001. Thanks to Dawn we have screencaptures and clips in the gallery but you might want to see this episode as a whole for yourself! If you live in the UK, here’s your chance:

UK residents will later be able to watch the episode online via ITV Player.

I finally added a very short interview with Sophia Myles at the Sony Ericsson Empire Awards, February 4, 2004. She was there to present and quickly talked about filming ‘Tristan & Isolde‘. The screencaptures of the video have long been in the photo gallery.

Since Sophia news are slow I used some of the downtime to update the 2007 Public Appearance picture albums with additional, bigger and/or untagged images. Enjoy!

As an upgrade of the existing podcast feature I’m very proud to say that thanks to the wonders of technology Absolutely Sophia Myles has its own radio station now. It’s called In Sync With Sophia. And now the most fabulous news: Sophia Myles has agreed to come on the show as our very first – and of course extra special – guest as a Christmas treat for the Absolutely Sophia Myles members! This took place earlier tonight and you can listen to it now! I edited it slightly to cut out the times when we unsuccessfully tried to bring people on the air.

Sophia has sent a Christmas message with a picture to the site:

To my lovely fans at sophiamyles.org,

Wishing you all a very happy Christmas and I hope that 2010 brings us more joy than we can possibly imagine.

Love, peace, rock and roll.

Awww, thank you! And we wish you the same! Sophia also sent some great exclusive pictures from the set of ‘Outlander‘. Thank you so much! It’s funny to think that these were taken over 3 years ago.

I recently got my hands on an old Japanese clipping. I don’t know what magazine it comes from or when exactly it was published but it was in 2004 to promote the release of ‘Thunderbirds‘. The signed portrait of Sophia Myles is one we haven’t previously seen but it must have been taken during the 2004 Tribeca Film Festival.

Thank you everyone for your lovely comments on the new layout! Luna and I really appreciated it. Speaking of which, Sophia Myles has sent a message to the website:

The new layout is beautiful Mia. My thanks to you and to the fantastic fans for giving life to such a wonderful site. Love Sophia

Thank you. How exciting! And to showcase how much life you guys are giving to the site I added some more fanart.
