Question from LD: You said: “This film is certainly not testing her strengths very much, it's just a silly sci-fi action piece, but she's doing great, as always.” I agree with you 100%. The question is; “What does she have to do to get the kind of role that will show the world what a great actor she is”?
Answer from Josh: "Well, I guess she has to work more. This is the first film she's made since Xena went off. She did get married and have a kid, which is meaningful stuff to most people (I assume, since I don't know for a fact). But it's not easy getting work in films or TV, that's just how it is, and getting good parts is almost impossible now since almost no one makes anything that's any good at all. It's not Renee's fault, she's up for anything that's thrown at her, and handles it all like it's easy. That's what being a pro means."
Question from Cath: I've read about Bruce's imitation of Kirk Douglas, and understand that he can do a great Elvis. But, does Renee O'Connor do any imitations? (Not of Elvis or Kirk, of course, but I know she's talented, so I wouldn't be too surprised.)
Answer from Josh: No, Renee doesn't do any imitations that I know of, but then most people don't.
Comment from Jo:
... thanks so much for passing on my comments to Bruce & Renee, your a quality bloke!
Answer from Josh:
It's my pleasure, and Renee was happy to hear it. I suggested that she start her own website so she can get her own fan letters, and she's considering it. Working with her again has been great.
Question from John Rambo:
How's it going? It's great to hear Alien Apocalypse is going so well, best of luck on that. I was wondering is Bruce playing the role in a more serious manner or is there any comedy involved in this? I thought he was awesome as Autolycus and he can definitely do serious roles too. Also it's great to hear that Renee is doing so well and that she is so gorgeous...with all due respect...I just have to ask...will there be any sex scenes? Please tell me there will be sex scenes! Anyway great movie it sounds like, the plot sounds awesome and you have a very stellar cast with Bruce and Renee.
Answer from Josh:
In fact there is a sex scene between Bruce and Renee, but it's handled very discreetly, and I think it turned out rather sweet and touching. They both played it wonderfully. I have one more day of shooting and that's all she wrote. I will then have brought the film in a day early, too. Oddly, once I got ahead of schedule they used the money for day #18 elsewhere, so now I can't have it even if I want it. That'll teach me not to shoot too fast. I think it's all turned out pretty well, if I do say so myself, but we'll all see soon enough. The film is already being cut.
