C.J. Skateboarder Moves to the Big Screen

MICAH BERRY, one of our great skateboarders at the CJ Skateboard Park, is in his first feature film. Eight-year-old Micah is in the film “Things We Lost in the Fire” starring Halle Berry and Benicio del Toro which opened on Friday, October 19th. Micah plays Halle Berry’s son. A recent widow (Halle) invites her husband’s troubled best friend to live with her and her two children. As he (Benicio) gradually turns his life around, he helps the family cope and confront their loss.

E.T. Canada (Entertainment Tonight Canada) taped a television interview with Micah at our CJ Skateboard Park yesterday afternoon with ET host Rick Campanelli trying his hand at skateboarding. www.etonline.com

Congrats to Micah for a job well done and great skateboarding (he did circles around Rick!).
