As we hurtle toward the Oscars, the Sundance Film Festival has already come and gone in the mad rush of awards and festivals that marks this season as the busiest in the film industry. Artists new and old, young and seasoned come together in Park City, Utah to buzz and be buzzed about, creating hype around projects both fiercely independent and modestly mainstream.

A decade has passed since the Academy bumped the Oscars ceremony up from March to February, but they still feel like they’re sneaking right up on us. And this year things got even more surprising, with the nominations being announced 5 days earlier than usual. According to the AMPAA, the move was to give Academy voters more time to see the films and vote, but we know that’s hogwash; it is simply a ploy to generate more revenue in advertising and ticket sales for the nominated films!

Noah Lomax is a very young adult, having burst onto the scene with Playing for Keeps last year as well as a recurring role on the creepy zombie series The Walking Dead. Now with Safe Haven, Lomax plays the conflicted son to Josh Duhamel's character. The smart young man here shares many experiences he's had on-set, as well as anecdotes with may of his co-stars. As adult as he may seem, we're pretty sure Noah is still not allowed to actually watch The Walking Dead. At least we hope so!
