ALPHAS - DAEMON'S TV: Warren Christie Talks Stunts, Cast Chemistry and Zombies

July 11, 2011

After talking to the lovely Azita Ghanizada about Alphas, Daemon’s TV was delightfully surprised to also get the chance to talk to Warren Christie, the resident “hyperkinetic” on the Alphas team who could realistically harpoon a fly with a toothpick thanks to his extreme ability at controlling his body movements.

Warren had a lot to say about what folks can expect from the premiere episode (which our writer Dynamaria loved in her review “ALPHAS “Pilot” Advance Review“), what kind of stunts come with the character ability and how much he wants to be a zombie ... but a nice one though.

Check out what he had to share below and don’t forget to tune to watch the pilot episode of Alphas tonight Monday, July 11 at 10/9c...



... Q: Cameron’s is hyperkinetic which involves perfect balance and enhanced motor skills. Does that mean you get to do a lot of stunts since your character does a lot of that?

Warren Christie: "I do, yeah, and that’s another thing that attracted me to the role. First and foremost it was the character and the depth of what he had going on and the excitement of the script and then there was a physical element to the stunts and whatnot. I hadn’t really done too much of that. A little bit, but not too much of that before, and that really attracted me to it. I thought that it would be a lot of fun.

It’s not just the fact that there’s these stunts, a lot of running and different things like that, but it’s the nature of what happens and the beauty of it is that because Cameron when he first comes into the group doesn’t really understand his abilities or know what it is or even recognize it. Because of that each week as he works with Dr. Rosen, it’s growing and it’s enhancing and he’s learning how to control it, but it’s also spreading off into other different areas and he’s really trying to learn how to control it. So that means each week that he can do a little bit more and can help a little bit more and exciting and fun. So, it’s been a lot of fun for that side of it..."
