When last we left Nucke Thomson and HBO’s Boardwalk Empire things seemed to be going pretty well for him. He had the girl and business was going the way he wanted it to go. Well, sorta.

The new season of the show debuts this Sunday and to get you ready we’ve got a whole slew of videos to bring to you. Among them are some previews of the new season, a clip from the premiere and several character profiles.

Boardwalk Empire has seen tremendous success on HBO and was given a second season after only airing one episode of its first. The show has built up quite a following and features a teriffic cast of characters.

Can’t wait to see what they do next. Fortunately, don’t have to wait too long.

Season two of Boardwalk Empire debuts Sunday night at 9/8C on HBO.

Click through for all the videos. And we do mean all.

I don’t know about you, but we’re pretty excited for the premiere of HBO’s Boardwalk Empire around here. If you’re looking for intense drama, outstanding acting, writing and direction you should definitely check this show out.

After all it comes from the creative team of Martin Scorsese and Terrance Winter (The Sopranos) who, individually, have been involved in some of the best movies and TV shows of all time. So naturally, with these two talented men working together, anticipation for Boardwalk Empire is very high.

To help get you interested in the series we’ve got three promo videos to share with you today. In them you get a look at some of the characters and situations of the series including its star Steve Buscemi as Enoch “Nucky” Thompson, Kelly MacDonald as Margaret Schroeder, Michael Pitt as Jimmy Darmody and Stephen Graham as a young Al Capone. Plus, you get a real look at the production itself and the care that’s gone into realizing the world of 1920’s Atlantic City.

Check out all three videos after the jump. Boardwalk Empire premieres Sunday at 9/8C on HBO.

Since it’s announcement, Rob Marshall’s upcoming sequel in the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise has gotten more and more interesting casting news. First Ian McShane joined the cast as Blackbeard, then Penelope Cruz was cast as his daughter and now the cast has grown by one more.

Actor Stephen Graham, possibly best known for his roles in Gangs of New York and Snatch, will be standing side by side with Johnny Depp’s Jack Sparrow in next summer’s epic sequel. From Variety:

He’ll portray Scrum, a Machiavellian pirate in Disney’s fourth installment of the franchise in which Sparrow seeks out the fountain of youth. Graham worked with Depp on “Public Enemies” and recently wrapped on murder drama “The Fields” opposite Sam Worthington.

He also will be seen as Al Capone on Martin Scorsese’s series “Boardwalk Empire” for HBO and in William Monahan’s “London Boulevard” opposite Keira Knightly and Colin Farrell.

Pirates 4 is geared to set sail on May 20th, 2011.
