SciFi Vision - Where Fiction and Reality Meet

Kevin Durand Talks The Strain and Playing Fet

By Jamie Ruby

Kevin DurandThe Strain, which airs Sundays on FX, is about to end its first season this weekend. The characters continue to fight to stay alive while moving their plan forward to kill The Master and stop the spread of the viral outbreak that causes vampirism.

Kevin Durand, who plays the part of exterminator Vasiliy Fet, recently talked to the digital media about the series and the season finale.

Durand talked to SciFi Vision about getting inspiration for Fet from the books the series is based on. "Well, I read all three of the books before I fully signed on. And my inspiration to play Fet, I guess in reading the books I saw him very similarly to the way that I'm playing him. I feel like a lot of it was on the page. I hear that he's a lot more of a charming kind and happier than people had anticipated, but I always saw that because through the journals and the books see how he really finds himself within this apocalypse and is blooming like a beautiful Ukrainian flower amidst the apocalypse."

Andre Braugher & Brooklyn Nine-Nine Return for Season Two

By Karen Moul

Andrew Braugher photo by Scott Schafer/FOXBrooklyn Nine-Nine returns this week for its second season, and Andre Braugher is thrilled to be back at work with his costars.

“I’m having a great time,” Braugher told journalists last week. “I’m studying these guys like a hawk. There are a lot of great young comedians on the show and it’s giving me a real thorough education on another aspect of my art form and I’m having a great time. I’m learning a lot and I feel reinvigorated by being on the show."

With eight episodes already filmed, Braugher said the cast is relaxed and enjoying themselves on set.

“We, as a cast, as we get to know each other better, we’re working faster and more efficiently,” he explained, “which actually gives us more time really to play around. In any given scene, we’re going to do five or six takes of the material that’s scripted and really cover that thoroughly and then we have enough time to do what we call ‘fun runs’ and fun runs is where everyone pulls the craziest stuff they know out of a bag and throws it into the scene.

Exclusive: Adam Copeland on Big Changes Coming to Haven

Adam CopelandTonight Syfy airs an all-new episode of Haven. The series, based on Stephen King's The Colorado Kid, takes place in a town where many of the ihabitants have strange abilities they call Troubles, which wreak all kinds of havoc in the small town. Adam Copeland plays Cheif of Police Dwight Hendrickson, whose mission it is to get rid of the Troubles and keep the town safe.

Copeland recently talked with Jamie Ruby of SciFi Vision in an exclusive interview about the series.

There is a lot of great stuff going on in season five of Haven, and as Dwight is a bullet magnet, it makes for some fun action scenes. "It's always safe to say that Dwight at some point is going to take some bullets. I don't know how fleshed out the character was [originally]. I don't think Dwight was supposed to be around for a while, so I think we're in this situation now where it's like, okay, he attracts bullets. How does he survive? So there's always going to be at some point where Dwight will probably get hit with some bullets.
