Daniel Cudmore (Felix) was interviewed on
Vamp Radio Online last night by
Angela & Gina from Intoxicating Scent (and hosts of
Vamp Radio's Twilight Hour) and
Joyce & Kim from Cullen Boys Anonymous. Here are some highlights that I scribbled down while listening:
- Grew up in Squamish, BC outside of Vancouver
- Not necessarily any big acting aspirations growing up; being from a small town, enjoyed participating in small plays
- Next film he's working on is 'Eclipse' in August; looking for work over the summer before Eclipse starts
- Was a little shy about working with Halle Berry, Hugh Jackman on XMen
- Doesn't know why there are so many half-naked photos of him floating around :-)
- Likes doing stunt-work and did all his own stunts for New Moon, which he says are really cool!
- Went to college in Pennsylvania and played football, before returning to Vancouver to refocus and tried his hand at acting
- Says Felix is angry and evil down to the core, but Daniel is a happy-go-lucky guy, so it was cool to build up that character
- Felix is jealous that he doesn't have an extraordinary power like the other vamps, which brings him to the point of rage -- so Daniel's been trying to build up that 'feeling not good enough' background, and Felix feeling unspecial when Alice and Edward come along - and wanting to tear Edward apart! :-)
Listen to it at
Vamp Radio Online.
Cool cool cool.
ReplyDeleteloved him in the Xmen movies as Colossus.
ReplyDeleteThink he's a great addition to the cast and by the sheer size of him he looks about the right size to play Felix. Looks as if he could give Kellan a run for his money. Quite a big boy!;O His own stunts, huh...November can't bring New Moon fast enough for me ;)
he's the XMen hottie...........!!!!!!!!!!
