Unfortunately, The Secret Circle was officially cancelled by The CW Network on May 11th, 2012. There is a fan campaign to save the show here, however at this point it seems unlikely that anything will change with this decision. Despite TSC being the network’s second highest performer and best performer of it’s freshman shows, they decided it was to end after one season.
This is unfortunate news and I’d like to express my condolences to the cast and crew, but espescially Thomas who has been here before with TSCC. The show, despite early flaws and the annoying lack of development or story for Adam (Dekker) early on, it was improving and had great potential!
I hope that you new TSC Thomas fans will continue to support this incredibly talented, sweet and humble actor along with us oldies. Thomas has been acting for most of his life and is a true professional. And, to quote Tyler Shields, “a true artist”.
Thomas is currently working on various projects, including Squatters, My Eleventh and a new album with Zero Times Zero.
It’s off topic but I would like to also mention CFS/ME Awareness Week, which has actually just ended but is something that is really important to me personally. I have had this illness for several years now and there is very little understanding or knowledge of it, which makes it frustrating at times. Please take a moment to visit the ME Association website for some great information about this invisible illness which impacts more people than you’d expect! In the sidebar there is also a link to AYME, which is a young person’s ME charity which connects and supports sufferers under 25.
I have also blogged about my experiences, in the cut-off below for any that are interested in a more personal account. I am an undergraduate completing a research project on ME! Thanks for reading and please keep spreading the word.
Celebrity photographer Tyler Shields has struck again, shooting Thomas alongside The Secret Circle co-star Phoebe Tonkin (Faye) in a marriage themed shoot. Tyler shot Thomas for the infamous arrest shoot, in which Thomas’s nose was reportedly broken for a second time. Check out the full shoot at his website and all pictures of Thomas here.
“Thomas Dekker is one of my favorites! We have done a lot together and this is just a little tease of whats to come”.
As you might have noticed from Twitter, Thomas has wrapped on The Secret Circle and the rumours are flying about a much discussed death. SkyLivingOnline have re-posted and quoted Thomas and a few of the cast, suggesting it might spell doom for our beloved Adam.
What’s your opinion on this, because personally, I think it’s a little too obvious! Thomas wouldn’t be allowed to take to twitter, would he? (Though he did once reveal Terminator spoilers on youtube). I think this is a red herring to throw us off. It’s not working, but I dig the cute pictures.
Thomas tweeted, “filming my final scene!” and “THAT’S A WRAP!!! #tsc” as well as a little shout out to Shelley Hennig, who plays the gorgeous Diana: “The pleasure has been ALL mine Ms @shelleyhennig !” (sic)
But it was the tweets from some of the other members of the circle that have got us in a bewitched tizzy.
Shelley posted: “This just I’n… @theThomasDekker WRAPPED. by far the most talented person I’ve ever had the pleasure of working with.” (sic)
And Pheobe Tonkin, who plays high school witch Faye Chamberlain, wrote: “3 witches down 3 to go..”
Could she be spelling the end for the circle? Has Adam met his maker? At least Cassie has Jake’s shoulder to cry on.
TDS Verdict: unlikely. Though if The Secret Circle for some strange reason isn’t renewed by The CW this month, they’ll all be goners!
Congratulations to Thomas, who is set to star in “Squatters”. It sounds like a fantastic role and something for him to really sink his teeth into!
The Hollywood Reporter:
Directed by Martin Weisz, Squatters is set to star Thomas Dekker and Gabriella Wilde in the story of a young homeless couple who move into an empty Pacific Palisades mansion while its owners are on vacation. Complications ensue when the owners return early. Actor Justin Shilton (Little Miss Sunshine) wrote the screenplay…
“When I read Justin Shilton’s script — one of the most powerful and beautiful I’ve encountered in years — I felt we just had to make this film,” said Moyer. “I’ve known director Martin Weisz for many years and we are proud to support him and these terrific lead actors in this endeavor.” [Source]
Movie City News adds:
Nasso added, “We’re pleased to be involved with such incredible material, and was hugely impressed with the readings of our two young leads. I think with such an excellent script, Dekker and Wilde have the chance to really embrace these roles and break out on the highest levels. We believe the film has very broad demographic appeal and expect everyone from 15-80 will like it equally!” [Source]

As you may have noticed, Thomas had his fun with everyone over Easter weekend, tweeting cryptic clues to a secret, which was later revealed to be a brand new and intriguing musical project that has been in the pipeline for 2 years (and was the secret mentioned to UK fans at T3)
The band, named Zero Times Zero, whose identities are a secret (with the exception of Dekker) will launch their debut album ‘Equals Zero’ very soon.
The official website has now been launched and the band play their first live show on April 19th at The Viper Room, LA.
“Zero Times Zero is an art collective featuring Thomas Dekker that incorporates music, fashion, video art and performance. Here they premiere their debut album “Equals Zero”, a dark synth ridden blend of rock, techno and rhythmic orchestral written and produced solely by the collective. They intend to challenge the current conventions of pop while keeping their personal identities cloaked in mystery. If there was a party in the world of “Blade Runner”, the Replicants would surely be dancing to the music of Zero Times Zero.” [Source]
Digital Journal have also posted an article about the announcement & show.
Myself & Thomas! Couldn’t resist.
Great news for you Brits who have yet to meet Thomas – or those of you who, like me, want to meet him again (and why wouldn’t you?). The lovely, personable and incredibly sweet Mr. Dekker is returning to us with none other than Kaboom and Secret Circle co-star and friend Chris Zylka! Those lovely people at Showmasters Events have announced the duo are appearing for a signing, autographs and possibly more at the collector’s fair this year.
EDIT: It has also been announced that Leven Rambin, Thomas’s co-star from Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles will be appearing!
May I point out the campaign we launched on the forums & twitter asking for this very thing? It works, it works!
Thomas is billed to appear from Friday 1st June to Sunday 3rd June 2012 at Collectormania in Milton Keynes, England. He will be signing autographs and participating in a photoshoot, though these have yet to be announced or pre-sold.

I’ve had questions from various parties about how this event works, so let me explain:
If anyone is interested in a meet up then e-mail or tweet me and let me know, as I’m hoping to arrange a casual coffee shop meet for Dekker fans, most likely for Friday or Saturday. I’ll be collecting numbers or possibly twitters to notify everyone of time and place etc!

There are lots of interesting spoilers turning up for The Secret Circle, including a few that were dropped by Thomas himself! There’s more spoilers and gossip below the cut. As always, click the source link for the full scoop!
In the episodes leading up to the break, we witnessed Cassie (Robertson) and Adam (Dekker) growing closer, and now the two star-crossed witches are an official couple, which, according to Dekker is “nice to play with” after so long giving each other furtive glances and shy smiles.
“In ‘Lucky,’ we’re definitely together, but there are situations in the episode that are already challenging for us, [like]arguments about parental history, and it’s interesting to already have a situation challenge us when we’re such a new couple,” Dekker said. “And in the following episode, you find out more about the ‘written in the stars’ destiny of our families and what that really means. I had a lot of fun shooting those episodes because Brittany and I got to get into the meat of those characters.”
…Sadly, that goodwill won’t extend to the rest of the circle’s parents, who all have their own checkered history with Blackwell — especially Adam’s father, Ethan (Adam Harrington). “We sort of hinted in ‘Witness’ that Ethan possibly wasn’t so clean or honest as he has pretended to be,” Dekker said. “What that really means, we find out in the next couple of episodes. The arrival of Blackwell, and especially Blackwell becoming so close with our circle, is the most information we’ve gotten from any of our parents, and it’s the closest we’ve gotten to really hearing the truth, and it starts to challenge everything that Adam has believed in his whole life.”
In fact, Dekker shared, Blackwell’s friction with Ethan becomes the main source of conflict between their children: “When Cassie, with her father, starts to unearth more truths, that’s kind of the challenge that it puts on our relationship of ‘Who do we trust?’ and it sort of becomes a bit of a competition of which parent is really the villain or the hero … but I will not reveal which one Ethan is — it’s exciting!”
“Lucky” is also a pivotal episode for Dawn (Natasha Henstridge), Dekker said, as we see her “reveal her true colors and her true past with Blackwell” — a theme that will carry through to episode 119.
The extremely friendly and funny actor recently took a few minutes to answer some of my questions about reuniting with Thomas Dekker (they worked together in the amazing 2010 film Kaboom), the therapeutic value of playing Jake, and dealing with post-Christmas underwear scenes.
When it comes to the show’s central love triangle, it seems as though Jake’s got the majority of the fans’ votes, though Adam certainly has his supporters. Is there an effort made behind the scenes to keep things balanced?
Jake can’t always win and Adam can’t always win. We try to keep it even. Thomas and I constantly get together and we’re like, “All right, well if you win this exchange, I’ll win this one.” And we’re best friends so it’s never an argument. It’s usually me saying, “No, YOU win,” and he’s saying, “No, YOU win.” “All right, cool. We’ll both win.” [Laughs]
Is it just serendipity that you guys had worked together before?
It was so serendipitous and amazing. And I literally remember—I don’t know if I was shooting Spider-Man or Piranha at the time that he booked the pilot for The Secret Circle, but I called Thomas instantly when I found out and was just like, “Congratulations, man!” And then when The Secret Circle got picked up I called him again. And then I think about two or three weeks went by and I got the audition for Jake. I called him and I’m like, “Dude, we’re gonna work together again, I know it.” And then it happened and it was amazing. It was amazing.
Was it written in the stars?
Yeah. It was destined.
