David Arias had the privilege to have a brief interview with the both of them. So without further ado…
David: So Ellyn, Â you are going to be in a movie next year called Blood On Canvas…Â Can you tell us a little about that and how its been working on that film?
Ellyn: Its been a phenomenal experience. It is a legal drama. It is about domestic abuse. It is an independent feature. Its been winning a lot of festival awards, for Best Feature both domestically and internationally. I play a mother who is having a hard time raising her child. She doesn’t always make the right choices.
David: Thank you Ellyn. And you Richard have been in one of my favorite animes, Rurouni Kenshin. You play the voice of Seijuro Hiko…how was it working on that?
Richard: It was wonderful…we did the original which was Samurai X. I wrote a lot of that and directed some of it too. In that one, I played Shishio’s man-servant, I can’t remember his name but he was a really fun character to play. When they redid it again as Kenshin, they had me come back and play Hiko which was great, I love playing that character. First of all he looks like Elvis and anybody that looks like Elvis I like playing. Actually got to play Elvis in Digimon when I did Etemon which was basically Elvis and I got to sing and everything. That was fun.
David: Awesome! Thanks for your time guys!
Richard & Ellyn: Thank you!Â
