Brilliant But Cancelled - AstroCasts

Neptune and Jupiter take a wild ride together in May which could lure The OC starlet into a heap of bad girl trouble. She may make out with another blonde's man, or go wild behind the wheel like some of her more out of control contemporaries. If she is able to channel her energy into a wildly creative role (along the lines of what Angelina did in "Gia" early in her career), she can turn critical heads instead of just making tab headlines.

Brooke Shields

Double Gemini Brooke has another book waiting to come out of her. Ruled by wordy/witty Mercury, the supermodel/supermom may start work in September on a screenplay or another memoir. With Saturn pushing her to do something meaningful she is apt to hole up for awhile with her kids and her computer and eschew time in the spotlight.

Peter Gallagher

The mischievous and manly actor is a super-Leo, with five key planets in the dramatic sign. In September, when tough Saturn finally moves out of Leo he can get some breathing room, to stop just taking parts for commercial reasons. Especially now that The OC is cancelled, Gallagher can even think about going back to the stage. (He is a Tony-nominated actor).

Patricia Heaton

The politically conservative star of Everybody Loves Raymond finishes out her 40s this March and they are bound to go out with a bang. When controversial Uranus transits Mercury, her communicator, she could say something that puts her in the doghouse with both the left and the right. Interestingly, more contrarian types like Bill Maher may appreciate her candor.

Milo Ventimiglia

January 12, 2007

Now that the young star has finished his workaholic Saturn return, be can begin to enjoy the fruits of his labor. In '06 he put his energy into several successful TV shows -- Gilmore Girls, Heroes, the soon-to-be-aired Bedford Diaries-- and in 2007, he can expet Hollywood to come knocking. He already tested the waters as Sly Stallone's son in Rocky Balboa. But soon he could begin a very Johnny Depp-like transition into meaningful movies.

Dennis Franz

Lucky Jupiter transits the gruff and lovable Franz's Venus in January and could bring he and wife Joanie a chance to travel more or create a project together - a real labor of love. The NYPD Blue star may be inspired to create a film homage to recently deceased auteur Robert Altman, the man who initially discovered him, decades ago.

Micky Dolenz

The former "Monkee" has laid low over the years, coming out for occasional nostalgia tours, but not much else. In April however, when Uranus, the planet of radical changes, hits his Sun, he could begin to enjoy a second career, as a children's book writer. Parents and grandparents who were fans of his singing (and faux-drumming) for the Monkees may end up celebrating his work as a child-like storyteller.

Lorraine Bracco

In August, hard-working Saturn over intense Pluto could prompt the Sopranos and Goodfellas actress to take a major risk in her career. She may take on a controversial role with radical political overtones, possibly alienating old fans, but winning some new ones in the process. At the same time, she is likely to announce marriage number four… but this time NOT to another actor!

Ben Affleck

Serious Saturn moves over Oscar winner Affleck's Sun in June and July. Now playing the role of a family man, the co-star of Bennifer Part Deux may have to turn down some work so that he can spend more time with wife Jennifer Garner and daughter Violet. The Hollywood player may find he enjoys playing Mr. Mom.

Donald Faison

January 04, 2007

A romantic Venus transit could lead to a head-over-heels April romance for the Scrubs star. He could meet his new leading lady through co-star and BFF Zach Braff. Meanwhile, a romantic lead in a TV movie could present itself to the affable comic-actor, and more big screen roles to follow after that. (Remember him in Clueless?)

Drea De Matteo

All summer intense Pluto will transit lucky Jupiter in the Sopranos actress's chart. She may decide to stretch her acting ability and stretch herself to the breaking point emotionally by taking on a tough stage role. She may even lose the accent and gain more critical acclaim.

Sascha Baron Cohen

The hilarious and controversial creator and star of Borat and Da Ali G Show has a romantic summer to look forward to. He may tie the knot with his fiancée, Aussie actress Isla Fisher (who converted to Judaism for him). The Sun/Venus transit in June and July suggests there could be announcements of a Baby Borat on its way.

Rainn Wilson

This May when trippy Neptune transits Mars in the quirky Office actor's chart he may go on a wacky diet or change his looks altogether for a role. His wife, fiction writer Holiday Reinhorn, may come up with a script which stretches Wilson's range as an actor. Like Steve Martin and Jim Carrey before him, a serious role could gain him newfound respect.

Zach Braff

During an inspiring Mars/Mercury transit in May 2007 the indie actor/filmmaker and Scrubs star could think up a great idea for an HBO or Showtime dramedy. As a bankable star he could get the green light to make another dream project, a la his lauded film debut, Garden State. The spring could also be a hot romantic time for the now Mandy-Moore-less Braff.
