About THE GREAT XSCAPE TOUR, the group comments, “You asked for it! We had so much fun with y’all this summer that we decided to bring the party to cities across the U.S. We decided to do something very special and have our good friends Monica and Tamar Braxton join us! We are beyond excited to have them out with us for the ultimate girls night out show! This is the tour we’ve always wanted to do and we can’t wait to see you there!”
It has been a scorching hot summer for the group; XSCAPE made their triumphant return on the BET Awards performing a trio of their biggest hits. Rolling Stone highlighting it as one of the “Best moments” of the night, calling their performance “magic” and a “show of their unfaltering, still awe-inspiring vocal ranges.” Following this landmark performance, XSCAPE performed two sold-out shows in Detroit, and shut down an entire floor at the Super Dome in New Orleans, as fans stormed the stage not to miss their Essence Festival set. Vibe proclaimed, “They haven’t lost an ounce of their magic.”
XSCAPE is managed by Monami Entertainment and joined forces with media and entertainment veteran, Mona Scott-Young and (her) Monami Productions, to produce their official docu-series “Xscape: Still Kickin It” which is coming soon to BRAVO.

Sophia Eleni stars with John Rhys-Davies in new horror film ‘Bone Keeper’


London-based actress Sophia Eleni has appeared in a number of popular TV series including ‘Call The Midwife’ and ‘Casualty’, and she’s soon to appear on the big screen as one of the lead cast members in horror film ‘Bone Keeper’. ‘Bone Keeper’ follows six young friends who enter remote caves and are hunted down by a mysterious creature. It also stars John Rhys-Davies, best known for portraying Gimli in the ‘The Lord of the Rings’ trilogy. Sophia talks about clambering through mud, pretending to rock-climb and why she loves horror films…
How exciting is it to be one of the leads in ‘Bone Keeper’?
“It’s amazing! Working with John Rhys-Davies was a blast – he’s full of wild stories and knows everything about geology, which was perfect for this film. There’s lots of buzz already about ‘Bone Keeper’, with a headline release in Variety, and the film went to Cannes this month. I play Nadia – she’s feisty, driven and determined to be the first to discover what’s really hiding in those caves. She’s conflicted between helping her friends, and chasing glory and fulfilling her ambitions. I loved leaning into her tough, tomboy energy – even if I had to fake being good at rock climbing!
“I seem to get cast a lot in these action-horror type films, which is funny considering I’m not exactly Bear Grylls.”
Was it a challenge to film?
“We were filming in wild, rugged landscapes – climbing through caves, crawling and slipping in mud… Halfway through shooting a lot of us got sick, which was intense but also kind of perfect – it mirrored the suffering and resilience of our characters. I love horror because it’s such a rich genre for actors. You get to explore every facet of human nature. ‘Bone Keeper’ really captures that in a raw and thrilling way.”

What are your favourite moments so far from your acting career?
“I’ve worked on some brilliant UK and US productions that I’m really proud of. In season 10 of ‘Call The Midwife’, I played Maria Kaufopolous – a feisty Cypriot woman who goes into labour on Christmas Day. She was such a fun character, with sharp one-liners and zero patience for her useless husband! It was fun making the character my own and bringing my own humour into it, and working alongside Jenny Agutter was a real honour.
“I also had a nice gig on ‘Casualty’ – I’d just passed my driving test and in the episode I had to film a full-blown car crash scene!
“And on the film side, ‘The Shamrock Spitfire’ was a standout project. It’s a WWII biopic, where I play a nurse who falls in love with the protagonist, though it is unrequited. She’s funny, compassionate, and deeply committed to his recovery. The role earned me five Best Actress awards, which was incredible. I’ve always had a love for that era of history and I did extensive research into nurses of the time because I wanted to honour the real women who lived through those horrors with such strength and humour.”
What’s next on the radar for you?
“Next up, I’m incredibly excited about an ‘AAA’ video game I’ve been working on with Frictional Games, where I play the leading role. It’s been months of intense voice and performance capture work, and I can’t wait for its release – it’s going to be a biggie!
“I’m also eagerly anticipating the release of the film ‘As Night Falls’, which has already had a headline feature in Variety. We’re premiering in Leicester Square this year, and I play the lead, Jane – who becomes the real emotional anchor of the story. It’s a tense, psychological horror set in an industrial estate, where a group of survivors are hunted by a dark entity that mimics people’s appearances, slowly fracturing their sanity and trust in each other. I’ve always been drawn to characters who feel resilient, complex and full of humanity, and I’m excited to keep telling stories that challenge and connect with audiences.”
‘Bone Keeper’ will be released in cinemas in autumn 2025.
