From "House of Anubis" to "X-Men: Apocalypse": All things you need to know about actress Alexandra Shipp!

When you first hear Alexandra Shipp's vocals, it instantly occurs to you that her voice is a delightful mix of perfect clarity, deliciously dipped in a five-octave addictive sweetness you can't get enough of.

To compliment her musical and songwriting talents, when Alexandra opens her mouth to share that same light as an actor, the effulgence only intensifies.

In the third grade, she mapped out who she wanted to be when she grew up as she penned her future bio:

"Someday I want to be a famous singer or I would prefer to be a movie star." Six years later, and plenty of voice lessons, acting classes, and multiple instrument lessons (thanks to MOM), at 14, she landed a top tier manager, a premier agent and began fulfilling her dream.

She arrived in Hollywood permanently at age 17 and began her acting career on "Alvin & The Chipmunks - Squeaquel" and never returned to her home in Phoenix.

She become a working actress amidst grounding jobs as a dog groomer and nanny; as she turned her attention to her musical and songwriting talents and began working with iconic producers Kenneth "Babyface" Edmonds and Damon Thomas.

Having studied Speech Level vocal techniques of Seth Riggs for over a decade, Alexandra wowed them with her voice and her lyrics from a soul clearly much wiser than her years.

At 20, she landed a lead role for the Nickelodeon international hit show "House of Anubis". Tirelessly studying her craft and connecting deeply to her old soul center, her acting and film career took off from there.

Alexandra appeared in the season two premier of the acclaimed Showtime series "Ray Donovan", as the lead in both "Drumline: A New Beat" and "Aaliyah: Princess of R&B" in 2014. She is currently working and constantly preparing for her biggest role to date: Storm in the new "X-Men" Movie franchise.

In addition, she is working on her first album with brilliant producers SHI, Kuzzo, Ryan Toby and Logic, with a planned completion and a launch in early 2015.

Born July 16, 1991 in Phoenix, Arizona, Alexandra continues to illuminate with the brilliant light God blessed her with that very day.

First Look at Alexandra Shipp as Storm in 'X-Men: Apocalypse'

Brace yourselves! A storm of new pictures, as well as a teaser from the upcoming X-Men: Apocalypse   are on your way. If you thought Alexandra Shipp (House of Anubis) was right, or otherwise "not good enough" for the role of Storm, now is your chance to say what you think, as a sneak peek and new pictures from the new film have been released after the X-Men cast attended the 2015 San Diego Comic Con on the 11th of July. To watch the full panel, click here.


Speaking of Alexandra, the past year has been quite a busy one for the rising star. Despite the fact she was portraying the lead role of 2014's most controversial biopic, she's also been involved in quite succesful projects like Drumline: A New Beat, as well as the upcoming Straight Outta Compton.

You might recall when, last September, X-Men writer Simon Kinberg answered fan questions about the recent X-Men: Days of Future Past, as well as the next installment in the franchise, "Apocalypse", revealing that "first-wave" characters like Storm (as played by Halle Berry thus far) would have to be recast in the next film.

The next installment in the film series, X-Men: Apocalypse is officialy announced to be out in May 27th, 2016, and will as well star Jennifer Lawrence (The Hunger Games), Sophie Turner (Game of Thrones), Rose Byrne (Neighbours), Nicholas Hoult (Skins) and more.

 It's time to pull out the big news. We're beyond excited to hear that ABC Family  has finally announced the main cast members of their brand new Supernatural-Drama series "Beyond", which is set to hit the screens in 2016. On the 23rd of June Entertainment Weekly  reported that the production of the new show will begin next week. The series will follow a story of Holden, a young man who wakes up in a hospital not realizing he’s been in a coma for 12 years, emotionally still a teenager, physically an adult, and possibly in possession of supernatural powers.



There's more to the news than meets the eye! Burkely Duffield who's most familiar to the fans of House of Anubis, The Tomorrow People  and the upcoming 2016 film Warcraft  was announced to be one of the protagonists of the new series.

“Beyond”  is a one-hour drama about a young man who wakes up from a coma after 12 years and discovers new supernatural abilities that propel him into the middle of a dangerous conspiracy. From Imperative Entertainment and Automatik, “Beyond” is created, written and executive-produced by Adam Nussdorf (“Once Upon a Time in Wonderland”). Tim Kring (“Heroes”), Zak Kadison, Justin Levy and Brian Kavanaugh-Jones will serve as Executive Producers.



Callan McAuliffe (“Homeland,” “The Great Gatsby”) leads the series as Holden, who wakes up in a hospital not realizing he’s been in a coma for 12 years – emotionally still a teenager, physically an adult, and possibly in possession of supernatural powers. Jordan Calloway (“Switched at Birth,” “Recovery Road”) portrays Holden’s childhood best friend, Kevin, now a therapist, who is haunted by guilt after the incident that put Holden in a coma. Dilan Gwyn (“DaVinci’s Demons”) stars as Willa, a beautiful woman who appears to be interested in Holden and who warns him he is in great danger. Romy Rosemont (“Glee,” “The Fosters”) plays Holden’s mother, Diane, who has refused to give up on Holden throughout his coma and now is determined to protect him. Michael McGrady (“Ray Donovan”) costars as Holden’s father, Tom, who is emotionally withdrawn after his son’s ordeal and defers to his wife, Diane. Burkely Duffield (“House of Anubis”) rounds out the cast as Holden’s clever younger brother, Luke, who grew up in the shadow of his brother’s tragedy and is now faced with a brother who knows less about the world than he does.
