OUT
OUT WHAT
OUT WHAT HAPPENED. LAW AND ORDER I LEARNED THIS MORNING CREEPS SUNDAY IF YOU ALL GET IT
RIGHT. I HAVE TO FIT IN THAT
I'M NORMAL LIKE BAMBI OR
SOMETHING WRONG WITH THAT. ARE
YOU UNDER SPEEDO? JUST A NORMAL
HUMAN DOWN. LOOKS LIKE A SLICE
OF AMERICA. LOOK AT THAT. ALL
RIGHT. THAT IS THE TRAILER FOR
THE RESIDENT ALIEN AND WE'VE
SEEN HIM PILOT A SPACESHIP
BEFORE AND VOICE DROIDS ARE
PLAYING AN ALIEN MUST BE THE
NEXT LOGICAL STEP FOR ALLEN TO
TAKE. HE JOINS US LIVE RIGHT
NOW TO SHARE ABOUT THE LATEST
PROJECT RESIDENT ALIEN. GOOD
MORNING, ALAN. THANKS FOR BEING
WITH US. GOOD MORNING. GOOD
MORNING. ALL RIGHT. SO THANK
YOU. YOU ARE YOU'RE WELL KNOWN
IN THE SCI FI COMMUNITY. AND
YOU'VE DONE A LOT OF ACTING
WITH SCI FI FILMS AND TV SHOWS.
THIS IS A LITTLE BIT DIFFERENT,
RIGHT? YOU'RE PLAYING AN ALIEN
CHARACTER, RIGHT? I AM. HE'S
HE'S AN ALIEN WHO CRASH LANDS
ON EARTH AND HE TAKES ON THE
IDENTITY OF THIS DOCTOR, DR.
HARRY VAN DER SPIEGEL AND GETS
PULLED IN TO A MURDER MYSTERY
THAT'S HAPPENING IN TOWN. THEY
NEED A DOCTOR TO DO AN AUTOPSY
.THE AUTOPSY IS OF THE FORMER
TOWN DOCTOR. SO HE ENDS UP
BECOMING THE TOWN DOCTOR AND
HE'S TRYING TO PASS HIMSELF OFF
AS HUMAN WHILE ALSO ATTEMPTING
TO LOCATE THE DEVICE THAT WENT
DOWN IN THE CRASH OF HIS
SPACESHIP THAT WILL KILL ALL
HUMAN LIFE ON THE PLANET. AND
WHEN HE CRASH IT'S A COMEDY.
YEAH. KEEP GOING. IN THAT SENSE
I MEAN IT IS A CUT IT'S A IT'S
A IT'S A DRAMEDY BECAUSE IT'S
AN HOUR LONG. THERE IS A LOT OF
DRAMA IN IT BUT IT GETS A LOT
OF COMEDY BECAUSE HE DOESN'T
KNOW HOW TO REALLY WORK THIS
BODY AT FIRST. HE DOESN'T. HE'S
KIND OF A PUPPETEER BUT FROM
THE INSIDE HE DOESN'T KNOW HOW
TO SPEAK. HE USES WORDS SO HE
WATCHES LAW ORDER ON TELEVISION
TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO TALK AND
JUST SORT OF WADES INTO SOCIETY
MAKING A LOT OF MISTAKES. AND
DID YOU YOURSELF WATCH SOME LAW
AND ORDER? DO YOU? ARE YOU A
LAW AND ORDER FAN? WHAT WAS
THAT LIKE KIND OF TAKING ON
THIS CHARACTER AND AND MORPHING
TO TO BASICALLY BECOME AN ALIEN
THAT'S CRASH LANDED. I LOVED
LONG I DON'T THINK ANYBODY
COULD NOT HAVE SEEN LAW LIKE
WATCHED. I THINK YOU JUST
NATURALLY JUST IF YOU GO
THROUGH LIKE NOT TRYING TO
WATCH LAW AND ORDER YOU WATCH I
THINK LIKE 20 HOURS OVER IT'S
JUST THAT'S JUST AS AN AMERICAN
YOU'RE GOING TO CATCH 20 HOURS
JUST PERIPHERAL LAW AND ORDER.
THERE'S SO MUCH OF IT OUT
THERE. THE APPROACHING THE
CHARACTER IS BECAUSE HE IS NEW
THIS BODY AND FIGURING OUT HOW
TO MAKE IT WORK. A LOT OF IT IS
TECHNICAL. YOU KNOW, PHYSICAL
PHYSICAL PERFORMANCE. YOU KNOW,
HE SITS IN A VERY ECONOMICAL,
EFFICIENT WAY ONCE HE FIGURES
OUT BALANCE WHEN HE SPEAKS HE
SPEAKS ALMOST LIKE EACH WORD IS
SORT OF ITS OWN ISLAND IN A
STREAM SAYS EACH WORD BY
ITSELF. SO IT KIND OF KEEPS
THIS ODD STRANGE DISTANCE FROM
EVERYONE. BUT IT'S IT'S IT'S A
LOT OF FUN BECAUSE HE'S
LEARNING MOTION. HE STARTS TO
FEEL EMOTIONS AS HE TOOK OVER
HIS BODY. SO HE STARTS TO
DREAM. HE STARTS TO GET WHAT A
JOKE IS AND HIS LAUGH IS VERY
STRANGE AND HE'S LEARNING ABOUT
WHO HUMANS ARE AND BY ALL THE
PEOPLE IN THIS TOWN AND I'VE
GOT TO ASK YOU, DID YOU GUYS
SHOOT THIS PRE PANDEMIC? WHAT'S
WHAT'S THAT PROCESS BEEN LIKE
OVER THE LAST YEAR OR SO? WE
SHOT MOST OF IT PRE PRINT
PANDEMIC THEN WE ONLY HAD TWO
WEEKS LEFT WHEN EVERYTHING SHUT
DOWN FOR COPE AND I REMEMBER
THEY CAME IN I WAS IN A FULL
ALIEN BECAUSE THERE'S A LITTLE
KID IN THE SHOW WHO DUE TO
PRINCE CHARACTER MAX CAN SEE ME
AS AN ALIEN AND SO WHENEVER I'M
WORKING WITH JUDAH HE'S SORT OF
MY NEMESIS IN THE SHOW. I'M
ALWAYS OUT TO KILL THIS KID.
LUCKILY I'M NOT VERY GOOD AT IT
.I HAVE TO PUT ON ALL THIS
ALIEN GEAR SO I HAD LIKE FIVE
PEOPLE TAKING OFF ALIEN RUBBER
AND ALL OF THIS STUFF AND
SOMEBODY CAME INTO THAT I WAS
SHUTTING DOWN. WE DON'T KNOW
THIS COBRA THING WILL PROBABLY
BE SHUT DOWN FOR A COUPLE OF
WEEKS AND WE'LL ALL COME BACK.
THAT'S ABOUT EVER RIGHT. YEAH.
SO SIX MONTHS LATER WE CAME
BACK AND IT WAS WE WITH ALL OF
THE COBRA THINGS IN PLACE.
BASICALLY GET TESTED A LOT.
IT'S KIND OF HOW YOU WISH LIFE
WOULD BE. YOU KNOW WE'RE
GETTING TESTED THREE TIMES A
WEEK AND EVERYBODY IS VERY
CAREFUL. EVERYBODY HAS TO WEAR
MASKS AND I MEAN THE DRAG IS
JUST LIKE EVERYBODY YOU CAN'T
INTERACT WITH AS MANY PEOPLE AS
YOU WANT INTERACT WITH. SO WE
CAN'T ELECT THE LIGHTING CREW
AND THE ACTORS STAY MORE
SEPARATE TO THE CONSTRUCTION
CREW. THEY STAY SEPARATE. YOU
CAN'T GO INTO THE OFFICE BUT WE
GOT IT DONE. WE DID IT IN THREE
WEEKS AND LUCKILY FINISHED IT.
GOT IT. GOT TO FINISH THE SHOW
AND NOW IT'S FINALLY HERE AND
MAKES IT VERY SWEET THAT THIS
IS THE THIS WEEK IT'S FINALLY
COMING OUT. IT'S BEEN AN
ANTICIPATION FOR FOR A LONG
TIME NOW. THAT'S RIGHT. ALL
RIGHT. WELL, GOOD TO KNOW.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR BEING
WITH US. YOU CAN TUNE IN TO
RESIDENT ALIEN ON
