5/23/2006 - Season 6 First Day Of Filming; Sean? Ellie!

 

Executive Producer Stephen Stohn updated us today on how the first day of Season 6's filming is going. In his posts he says they are finished filming the first few scenes of 601 (Here Comes Your Man Part 1) and says they have been shooting near lockers and in the classroom with Emma, Manny, and another "lead character." This statement combined with news of an old flame of Emma's returning this season has speculation running rampant that the other "Lead Character" mentioned is in fact a returning Sean. While this is not confirmed it does seem like a good possibility. We should know more for sure on or around June 5th once CTV releases the official cast of Season 6 in their press release.

The first part of his post is in response to a question from a fan asking if Stacey was on a birthright trip to Israel recently, because someone told her they were on the trip with Stacey and she had a  Degrassi script with her that she was learning for Season 6. Exec confirms this to be true, confirming the graduated Ellie will be in Season 6. Here is his post below:

"Yes it was Stacey--she just got back from Israel and we were chatting about her trip at the end of the read-through, sounded awesome!!

And we're now finished shooting the first few scenes of the new season--this morning we've been shooting in a classroom and then around the lockers, featuring Emma and Manny and, let's just say another lead character............."
