What has been your favorite role?
1. My Favorite role had to be when we were filming MIRACLE IN EAST TEXAS here in Alberta, Starring Kevin Sorbo & John Ratzenberger. My role was one of the widows they were swindling. It was really great, as I had the opportunity to do a one on one scene with Kevin Sorbo, and his humor made the scene fun and exciting, he was a great Director. I would have say that was definitely my favorite.
What has been your favorite role?
I would have to say my favorite role so far has to be Metis leader Gabriel Dumont in the APTN series Secret History of the Wild West.
What has been your favorite role?
I’m still very new in the industry but the one that sticks out in my mind is on TLOU as a stunt performer. I’m very excited to watch that show when it comes out.
What has been your favourite role?
Last year, I was lucky enough to work on set for a WestJet commercial. Despite it being shot in the beginning of the pandemic, the crew and staff were so professional and kind.
What has been your favorite role?
One of my favourite roles was playing Phil on the Netflix series Black Summer. He is an awful character and director John Hyams gave me such freedom to play and bring all I could to the scenes. I still have folks tell me that they didn’t realize it was me until halfway through the show.
What has been your favorite role?
So far, playing this dude I created, Frank Gypsum, has been the most fun. He’s ridiculous. I came up with the character last summer and over the last year, with the help of people far more professional than myself, we have been able to develop him into a three dimensional character. And now we’re in the process of pitching it around.
