WonderCon 2018 – Bad Samaritan interview with cast and creators

At this year’s WonderCon we got to sit down with the cast and creators of the film Bad Samaritan, in theaters May 4 2018. (Starring David Tennant, who filmed a message for the fans since he couldn’t be there.) In attendance were stars Carlito Olivero (Step Up: High Water, East Los High), Jacqueline Byers (Roadies, Salvation), and Kerry Condon (Better Call Saul, Avengers: Infinity War), writer Brandon Boyce (Apt Pupil, Wicker Park), and director/producer Dean Devlin (Stargate, Independence Day, The Librarians.)

Check out the video for their thoughts on working with David Tennant, filming in rough conditions, and funny stories like Carlito’s first trip to a strip club, Jacqueline getting to sit in front of famous people at Hamiliton, and what kind of music Kerry listens to when she’s pissed off.
