Summer is featured in the March issue of Esquire and on there site they have put up the Preview of the shoot, Below is the article with her, the behind the scene’s video and three photos from the photoshoot have been added to the gallery as well. I just love the video and photos of Summer she looks stunning in them all and i hope more come online very soon. And full scans will be up when i can get hold of them.
On this miserably cold and wet Hollywood evening, it’s a relief when Summer Glau glides into the bar, instantly brightening the mood. And she does glide. She started ballet at age five, and it became her life — her mom homeschooled her for the next decade. “I was good,” says Glau with a vague Texas accent, “but local good. By fifteen, I started to realize I didn’t have the body to go to the next level.” (Which seems absurd from where we’re sitting.) At twenty, she moved to L. A. and landed a guest part as a ballerina on the Joss Whedon-directed Angel. That led to starring roles on Whedon’s series Firefly and then The Sarah Connor Chronicles, as a teenage Terminator. Her current role as a crime-fighting blogger on the NBC superhero drama The Cape is the first time the twenty-nine-year-old gets to play a woman anywhere close to her own age, which has Glau excited and a little nervous. Things are taking off fast. So, with Summer’s help, a look forward to the future — the near future at least. A preview of Summer… —David Katz
…IN TEN MINUTES /// DRINKING WHISKEY
I like wine, but I’m really a whiskey drinker. I’m a Maker’s Mark girl. It’s funny, I grew up in a conservative family and my parents didn’t drink at all, but my sisters and I can drink like fishes. We don’t get drunk — I don’t get out of control — but I’ll have a nightly bourbon to unwind.

Waiting for Summer Glau at the NBC party really paid off. After she schmoozed with the Television Critics Association, she came and gave me a hug as we sat down to relieve her high heeled feet. I know you all think I got a hug from River, but to me she’s my terminator. Now she’s on The Cape as Orwell, the secretive ally of the title hero.
CraveOnline: How long have you been standing?
Summer Glau: On and off since 6:45 this morning. But you know I do this for three weeks straight for this show because I love it. I really want people to know how special it is.
CraveOnline: Does it remind you of the ballet days?
Summer Glau: Everybody’s was asking me that. They say just channel your inner fight because you know how it feels to have aching feet. I have a few blisters too but I couldn’t take off my beautiful shoes. I love my shoes.
CraveOnline: How is the feeling on The Cape set different than Firefly and Terminator?
Summer Glau: You know, I feel like I’ve grown. Of course I’ve grown up. I’ve seen more of what it’s like to be a working actor in L.A. and I have great appreciation for the times when you’re working with people that you really love and a project you really believe in. It’s not different from Firefly. It’s just that I’ve grown. I’ve had to grow up. It’s time. When I started in Firefly, I was brand new and I felt like a little girl. It’s time for me to push myself and grow up and be a woman. That’s what I feel about Orwell. That’s what I feel that she’s inspiring me to do.

It’s great to be back in San Antonio, where I can keep track of local TV happenings once again — such as KENS’ dramatic noon-news changes.
On the other hand, my recent Tinsel Town trip was full of enough S.A.-related TV encounters to stave off too much homesickness. My favorite? Revealing party chat with Alamo City native Summer Glau, who sipped her drink of choice — bourbon — while sharing tidbits about her visits home.
Glau, who has carved a niche for herself with fan-boy-beloved roles in sci-fi and superhero shows such as “Firefly” and “Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles,” first said at an NBC media session that she’s thrilled to be in a more “adult” role on “The Cape.”
“I think I found just the right spot. I feel like I’m growing as an actress, and I love the family that I’m a part of now,” she said of NBC’s Monday night crime-fighting drama and her role as investigative blogger Orwell.
“She’s the girl I want to spend my days with,” she added.
The place Glau loves spending her days is Boerne, where she now owns a nice piece of land and big house. Glau said it’s the perfect spot to reconnect with her family when she returns to San Antonio.
“Boerne is my soul mate,” she said. “I get out there and I see those hills and I see those oak trees and it just relaxes me.”
She loves to take long runs there, she said, particularly when she needs to work off two of her favorite types of cuisine: Mexican and barbecue. Every time she flies to San Antonio, Glau elaborated, she must make an immediate stop at the Taco Cabana near the airport. Once in the Hill Country, she savors the food at Rudy’s Bar-B-Q.
P.S. If you happen to run into Glau when she’s back home, don’t hesitate to approach her. She loves being recognized, she said, and owes so much to her devoted fans. “I’m so blessed, and, you know, over the years, I’ve felt really supported, and I don’t want that love to go away.”
