Local and best!
Even though I do say so myself!
Welcome back. With me now is Pierce Daniels...
... the latest actor to take up the Wolfram P2K of superspy John Spiral.
Pleasure to be here, Alva.
You're known for your work on the London stage.
Do you think Dying Strike offers a similar challenge to the works of the Bard?
It may not seem like it, but Shakespeare wrote for the masses.
His plays were meant as popular entertainment, like Dying Strike.
Perhaps Macbeth didn't have a jetpack in his backpack...
... and Hamlet didn't have a car fitted with missiles...
... but parallels, in other ways, are striking. Pardon the pun.
Our villain, Max Spiral, is a distorting mirror to John...
... much like Macbeth was to Banquo.
Did your earlier role in Loveheart help you prepare?
Loveheart... is not a film I'm proud of.
A shallow movie, and one that is not a part of my soul.
Dying Strike is far superior, with themes of imperialism...
... masculinity, the role of violence in society...
... and a few car chases as well...
One might say John Spiral is 'growing up'.
One might. The 1960s are over. Operation Fort Knox was fun and all...
... but what people want now is humanity. A Spiral who mourns after each kill.
Where each bullet of his P2K holds as much weight as a samurai's death poem.
Interesting...
