00:00I'm gonna start with what is surely the start of any good pub debates are aliens real I?
00:07Mean there's every possibility that they could be the universe
00:11it's that big that there is there is the possibility that there is a
00:16Alternate alternative what a parallel universe where me and you could be having this conversation right now
00:23On another planet that's exactly the same as earth
00:26And that kind of those are mine because the universe is that infinite right so that is a possibility
00:30You're bringing me out man. That's too big. It's weird to think about too big for this little red carpet
00:36You play Tyler
00:38Captain of the ship what leadership qualities do you want to bring to your character to make him front and center of the crew?
00:44What leadership qualities do I bring did you did you want to bring to the character that I want to bring
00:49I get
00:52Kind of what it's a I think Tyler leads with his heart and
00:58Wanting a better life for all of his friends, and he kind of and it's that love
01:04Where they eat you know he wants that he wants to bring them all on this kind of journey with him
01:07and it's a risky journey, but
01:10The way he sees it is they're never going to get this opportunity by working for Waylon to Tony that it's just not going to happen
01:16so
01:18Kind of leaves of his heart
01:21Could do with leading with his head sometimes because
01:24They do get a bit in a bit of trouble in this film
01:28We see you involved in so many what looks like challenging set pieces throughout the film. It looked exhausting
01:33What was the most challenging day on set for yourself?
01:36There's a few for different reasons. I think the cryo chamber scene with myself spike and David
01:43Was pretty tough because there were so many moving parts
01:47And we were in like kind of knee-deep water the whole time and that was that was pretty tiring
01:55So I'd probably go with that one. Yeah, is there a method for acting across well
01:58You know there are some movie magic
02:00But into posters and they know the aliens have to be altered after the fact is there a technique for yourself to
02:06Act on set as if you are being attacked by these
02:10monsters
02:11You've just kind of got to throw yourself you've got kind of got to throw yourself in throw yourself in
02:17Be instinctual as the characters would have to be in this situation
02:24And also, I think we were lucky on this film because we had all these practical effects, so we really didn't have to
02:29It felt like there was nothing left to the imagination
02:32It was all kind of there for us, so we really saw what was happening and playing out in real time
02:37Phenomenal and finally for me and the final set piece of this film is one
02:40That's I think it's gonna be talked about for a long long time. How would you describe it without giving anyway any spoilers I?
02:47Would describe it as chilling that was that was the emotion that I got when I saw
02:53It thank you so much your time. Thank you very much
