Syfy recently premiered its new series Dominion. Two of the stars, Tom Wisdom, who plays the archangel Michael, and Roxanne McKee, who plays Claire Risen, talked to the digital media about their new roles.

McKee talked to SciFi Vision about what first drew her to the project. "When I read the script, gosh way back, ages ago now, I just thought it was a really interesting script. I thought the concept was really interesting, the ideology behind it. And I thought the part of Claire had a lot of room to grow. And I wanted to play a strong female character, and Claire definitely fitted that bill.

"And I think the writers' vision, Vaun's vision, and Scott, our original director and now producer, was one of real strength for a female character, which was a really big deal to me. And when I discussed that with them in the audition, when I got my recall, we were all on the same page. We were thinking more Princess Leia than Princess Sparkle, if that makes sense."

Recently TNT premiered season four of Falling Skies. Tom (Noah Wyle) and Anne (Moon Bloodgood)'s alien-human hybrid daughter, Lexi, has continued to grow at an abnormal rate, reaching young adulthood, as well as gained some interesting abilities. Scarlett Byrne, who joined the cast as Lexi this season, talked to Jamie Ruby in an exclusive interview about her work on the series.

Byrne originally auditioned for the role on tape. "I auditioned for it last year, I think around August time. I put myself on tape in one of my best friend's bedroom. And then I got a call, and I had a Skype meeting with Greg Beeman. And then I redid the tape in more of a studio setting, and then I found out I got the call. So it all happened in two weeks, and suddenly I was traveling to Vancouver and started shooting the show. So it was a bit [of a] whirlwind; it was fun."

Last August SciFi Vision visited the set of Syfy's Defiance to learn about the upcoming second season. At the time, the cast was only into the second week of filming, and was working on the first three episodes of season two. Dewshane Williams, who plays the character of Tommy, took time out of his day to sit down with the site at the NeedWant for an exclusive interview.

The second season of The Bridge is about to premiere on FX. This season Sonya Cross, played by Diane Kruger, meets someone who's connected to her past that will cause problems between her and her boss (Ted Levine).

In preparation of the premiere, which airs July 9th, Kruger recently talked to the media in a conference call about the upcoming season.

Last week, TNT premiered the fourth season of its popular science fiction drama, Falling Skies. Drew Roy, who plays the eldest Mason son, Hal, recently talked to Jamie Ruby of SciFi Vision in an exclusive interview.

At the beginning of the fourth season the characters are going to be split up, so Hal won't be spending all his time looking after his younger brothers, or hanging out with Maggie (Sarah Carter). Hal will be stepping up into more of a leadership role. "That's was an exciting new twist, because usually it's me looking after the brothers, a little conflict with Ben (Connor Jessup), loving moments with Maggie, but now I find myself in this prison camp ghetto, and we're trying to get out. So in the first several episodes, it's all about that and how we can team together to be able to make this push to get out of there, and we meet some new characters who enlighten us on some ideas.

Tomorrow FXX premieres it's fourth and final season of Wilfred with two all-new episodes. In preparation, star Jason Gann, who plays Wilfred, talked to the media about what fans can expect this year.

In the beginning of the season there are multiple actors in dog suits like Wilfred's. Gann talked to SciFi Vision about what that was like for him. "It was kind of surreal, but I think everyone else on the set was more sensitive to the preciousness of it, the sanctity retained, the sanctity of Wilfred. I think the only other person who had really been in it before then was Elijah [Wood], once, in between scenes last year. It was just so exciting, the whole new direction that we're taking with some of the mythology of Wilfred, that it was just a real buzz for me to be in the suit, and see some other people in it.

"There was one guy in it who stayed in it all day; it was so hot and he didn't take it off all day. I'm like, "Dude, what are you doing? Take it off in between takes." He's like, "No." He said, "This is just such a gift of an opportunity; I just want to stay in it for as long as I can." It was pretty funny."

NBC recently premiered its new summer series Crossbones. Actor Richard Coyle, who plays opposite John Malkovich as the character Tom Lowe, recently talked to the media about his new starring role.

Coyle talked to SciFi Vision about what originally attracted him to the role. "It was a great script, and I immediately liked the pas de duex between Lowe and Blackbeard, which was fascinating, and obviously it's a series-long arc between these two characters.

"But in the pilot, the first episode that I read initially, it's very much like a boxing match, it was very – these two characters going toe-to-toe. I found that very interesting, the idea of an agent of the crown squaring up to an Osama Bin Laden-like terrorist, and the potential for where that would lead – it was intriguing."
