Comic Monsters has posted an interview with Kylie Furneaux, the stunt double for both Krista and Chase. Below is an excerpt from the interview.
TheBigBadWolf:
We have seen many cool stunts and fights so far on Blade the Series that feature Krista Starr (Jill Wagner) and Chase (Jessica Gower). Was that really you in there doing a lot of the flips and kicks?
Kylie Furneaux:
I would love to take credit for the fight scenes that you have seen already in Blade but unfortunately I don't appear until episode 11. I was filming X-Men 3 for three months at the beginning of filming. I am hoping for more of a showing in Season two if it goes ahead.
TheBigBadWolf:
What has been your favorite stunt so far while on the set of Blade the Series?
Kylie Furneaux:
Ah see, now this is a hard question to answer without giving anything away. I am a fighter and someone who needed me to wear a blonde wig does a kick ass fight near the end of the season. Keep watching - it is worth a look....
It's a great interview with a stunt person whose been in a variety of different action roles. She talks about most of them, while also giving more details on her work with
Blade: The Series. I actually love the stunts on the show. I just wish the cinematography would show it better rather than do the close up, quick cutting, motion sickness inducing crap they usually do. Let us
see the action people, I don't need somebody trying to make me feel it.
Anyway, fans should definitely head on over and check out the
full interview, especially if you're a fan of some of the great stunts performed on the show.
