WAREHOUSE 13 - DAILY ACTOR: Q & A: Saul Rubinek, Eddie McClintok and Allison Scagliotti

July 14, 2011
by Lance Carter


Syfy’s Warehouse 13 is in full swing on it’s 3rd season and stars Saul Rubinek, Eddie McClintock and Allison Scagliotti got together for a press conference call and talked about keeping their characters exciting, how they survive in a show with a big cast and more.

It’s clear from their bantering back and forth that they clearly like each other, which on a big ensemble show is quite a feat...

... Q: From a personal perspective, how was the experience of filming the third season different from the previous two.


Allison Scagliotti: "I think every episode is different because we learn more and more with every script and with every happy accident and every scary accident because I think Jack has said in the past and Saul, you said, as well, the only procedural aspect of our show is that we have to go find artifacts that threaten the world and the worlds they neutralize and then bring them back. But we’ve could sort of endless, you know, possibilities for what happens around that, what triggers it and what can happen as a result and what’s happening to our characters emotionally.

So I really don’t think that any two episodes are the same and as a result, it just gets to grow more and more."

Saul Rubinek: The seasons are a combination of what happens as a family, how we grow, how our relationships grow, our need for each other, our worry about each other, our exploration of our dark sides and the sides of us – each other that the more we care about each other, the stakes get higher because we lose each other, it becomes more – it would be more unbearable than it would be if we were just people who are just agents..."

And for us, look, we’re in the third season of a hit show. We feel blessed. We love going to work. We have a great time with each other. I think that comes across, at least I hope it does.

HAVEN - CINEMASPY: Eric Balfour Has Found his Home on the Rainy Streets of Haven

By Michael Simpson
July 14, 2011


Haven returns to Syfy in the U.S. on Friday and Showcase in Canada on Monday and, in case you haven’t noticed, we are marking those events with several Haven-related features here on CinemaSpy...

... In this Q&A, Balfour talks about what it’s like to film in the Nova Scotia seaside locations that stands in for Haven, Maine. He also talks about what we can expect from his character in the upcoming season, his own experiences filming Season Two and his frequent encounters with the supernatural...

Photobucket

... Q: Do you know if there’s going to be an answer as to why there are Troubles or why they come back?

Eric Balfour: "I do know for a fact that Sam Ernst and Jim Dunn, the creators of the show, definitely, 100%, know exactly what’s going on in this town. So some day, I know they will, but I think it’s probably not going to happen for like Season 5 or 6. They’re going to prolong it as long as they can, but they definitely, definitely, definitely have an answer.

I’ve always imagined, in my mind, that what’s going on in Haven is in some ways it’s almost like global warming. As things shift in the universe of Haven and the world shifts and humanity shifts, things change. At one time, Haven, this town, was exactly, as its name implies, was a safe haven for people that had these supernatural curses or troubles or afflictions. As nature changes, something happened in the energy of this town that, you know, created this Molotov cocktail of supernatural occurrences. And I always felt that it was much more evolutionary versus being one single action...

Torchwood 2

TORCHWOOD: MIRACLE DAY - SFX MAGAZINE: Bill Pullman Interview

July 14, 2011


When news first surfaced that Torchwood: Miracle Day’s main bad guy would be a child murderer, Oswald Danes, who survives execution because of Miracle Day (the day when people stop dying), more than a few eyebrows were raised. Was it tasteless, or morally dubious to feature such a character in a science fiction action series? A series that’s a spin-off from the family entertainment phenomenon that is Doctor Who. But as anybody who’d seen Children Of Earth knew, Torchwood had moved on a long way, and series creator Russell T Davies wasn’t afraid to tackle to dark side of humanity in surprising and thought-provoking ways.

Nevertheless, it was going to take someone with serious acting chops to pull off a character like Danes. So that’s who the show’s executive producers – Russell T Davies and Julie Gardner – called on: Bill Pullman. Although still most remembered by genre fans as the president in Independence Day, Pullman is no stranger to more twisted roles in films such as Lost Highway and The Guilty.

When SFX calls him up for an exclusive chat about Miracle Day, he immediately jokes that what we’ve interrupted him in the midst of a very un-sci-fi occupation: “I just came out of the fields. I have a ranch with my brother here in Montana. It’s just starting into haying season. I feel very far from sci-fi...

Photobucket

... Q: Is it a bit of a back-handed compliment being asked to play a child murderer?

Bill Pullman: “Well, you know, I have played a bunch of troubled characters before, so I was kinda prepared for it. I’m not shy of that kind of stuff. Other people can worry more about that sort of thing, but I don’t. It was just a well written part. I don’t think I could do a child murderer just for a child murderer’s sake, you know. And in a kind of way, that’s just the condition he begins with, and then because of circumstances, he has to extend beyond that. Then it’s a question of whether he’s carrying too much baggage to be able to do that.

Q: Yes, because although he starts out – for want of a better shorthand – as a Hannibal Lecter character, he develops into a Billy Graham, or maybe messianic character, doesn’t he?

Bill Pullman: “That’s exactly it. Either by fluke, or coincidence, or divine destiny, his failure to die becomes the pivot for a whole world that has changed. He becomes a global celebrity, in a way. People begin to listen to him and he has a message they want to hear. He’s an intelligent guy, so he’s recognising opportunities, and sensing all the layers of threat that could come and throw him off his throne. He recognises all these powers that want to co-opt him. He has to make alliances with difficult people that he is not comfortable with. So you get a look at that kind of intricacies of power...
