Luke Kleintank is no stranger to recurring roles. On Gossip Girl, he plays Elliot Leichter, a love interest of Eric van der Woodsen (Connor Paolo). On No Ordinary Family, he plays Chris Minor, a good-hearted delinquent who falls for Daphne Powell (Kay Panabaker). On The Young and the Restless, he plays Noah Newman, the son of Nicholas & Sharon Newman (Joshua Morrow & Sharon Case), who actively pursued a romantic relationship with Jana Hawkes (Emily O’Brien).

See What Bones Had In Store For ComicCon

Fox scheduled a Bones panel for San Diego Comic Con to feature stars David Boreanaz and Emily Deschanel which was cancelled with both stars citing personal conflicts.

In spite of this, and since Hall H was left void of distractions during the allocated slot, a number of Bones fans gathered to show their continued support. There was still some Bones swag to be obtained including a bag, poster and shirts.

Now, Fox has released the video they planned to show during the panel.

John Francis Daley and Jonathan Goldstein, who wrote this summer’s Horrible Bosses, have completed their second screenplay draft for a reboot of National Lampoon’s Vacation. New Line cinema is actively seeking a director for this priority project and Peter Segal (Get Smart, The Longest Yard, Anger Management) is on the top of their list.

This new film, tentatively called Vacation, will center around a grown up Rusty Griswold and may chronicle his journey to take his own family to Wally’s World. In the original, Rusty was played by Anthony Michael Hall. There is no word yet on casting other than the hope of cameos for Chevy Chase and Beverly D’Angelo.
