I did not think they&#8217;d set aside time for me and Steve Head, a reporter from IGN, to sit down and talk with them.<\/p>\n<p>The four of them (Johnathon Schaech, Phina Oruche, Kerr Smith, and Brendan Fehr) were very nice and laid back, not at all what I expected from &#8220;talent&#8221;. They answered all our questions very thoroughly and seemed genuinely excited about the upcoming vampire movie.<\/p>\n<p>A little history on the characters; Johnathon (&#8216;That Thing You Do&#8217;) Schaech plays Kit, one of the eight original Forsaken. He&#8217;s the villainous badass. Phina (Giles&#8217; girlfriend on &#8216;Buffy&#8217;) Oruche plays one of the sexy vampire girls named Cym, Kerr (&#8216;Dawson&#8217;s Creek&#8217;) Smith is the traveler Sean who picks up a hitchhiker on his way to deliver a car cross country, and Brendan (&#8216;Roswell&#8217;) Fehr is the hitchhiker in question, cursed with a blood disease that will eventually change him into one of the Forsaken.<\/p>\n<p>&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Brendan Fehr- My character was a protagonist. He had his tendencies to walk on the dark side, and you could see that in him. He fought it a little bit, but when you&#8217;re offered the choice of immortality over mortality, you see how it can be very appealing.<\/p>\n<p>The longer he goes without killing this guy that could ultimately save him (Smith&#8217;s character), the harder the choice becomes to save himself. You would start to think that immortality wouldn&#8217;t be so bad since you could do whatever you want and never die. At first he thinks, &#8220;no I want my life back!&#8221; but the more you think about it the more it eats away at you on the inside. You&#8217;d live by no rules, which is appealing to everybody.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Thanks to Rhea for this: Don&#8217;t know if this has already been posted but I found a pretty good interview<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"colormag_page_container_layout":"default_layout","colormag_page_sidebar_layout":"default_layout","footnotes":""},"categories":[2376,3],"tags":[9,70,238],"coauthors":[2273],"class_list":["post-1775","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-brendan-fehr","category-leading","tag-brendan-fehr","tag-interview","tag-the-forsaken"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/crashdown.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1775","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/crashdown.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/crashdown.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/crashdown.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/crashdown.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1775"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/crashdown.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1775\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":28680,"href":"https:\/\/crashdown.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1775\/revisions\/28680"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/crashdown.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1775"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/crashdown.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1775"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/crashdown.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1775"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/crashdown.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=1775"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
