Jeffrey Harris: What was it like working with a tremendous director like Guillermo del Toro on that movie?
Luke Goss: I can be very, very intense on set, but he knows for me, he's only coming from a place where I consider what I'm doing. And I think without a doubt he's the most prepared director I've ever worked with. I think having seen the way he works, he was more human in the first film. There was a lot more humanity as far as friendship is concerned, but I do still think his attention to detail never went down. He's still that amazing director and I think just getting better and stronger. Definitely, I loved his sense of humor on the first movie. He has such a great sense of humor and a great sense of boyish enthusiasm about that genre and as the way all of us do love those kinds of movies. And he just was a joy to be assisted by – del Toro saves you from yourself. He has so much faith in what his actors are bringing because he knows why he's got each actor on set. There's no guess work with him. But what he does is he saves you from the choices that might divert the power of the role and I think he just really keeps actors on track more than dictating them. I love, love working with him.
Jeffrey Harris: Aside from all the recent controversy on Wesley Snipes, what was it like to work opposite him in the movie and have action sequences with him? How did he come off to you?
Luke Goss: Firstly, I get along really well with him. We just clicked and when we were doing the promotional tour together when the movie came out, the cast members were just him and I. We were in a private jet going around the country for about two and a half weeks promoting the film. So we came out here with a great rapport and I really enjoyed working with him. At the time we were shooting, he was at the height of his game as far as Mr. Snipes, you know what I mean? Wesley Snipes on his A game. So that comes with, you know you have bodyguards and the kind of – some of the things that come with that. But he's amazing at what he does as far as fighting. He's really a powerful guy. I think it was good for me as far as movement-wise and attitude, I try to make sure of little things like keeping my guard down with Snipes so it wasn't like I was defending myself. It was like if I hit something, I can even look away because if Nomak hits something, it's going down whether it be for a second or forever, it's going to go down. And it was a wonderful payoff because he's such a powerful adversary – it really helped in a way in a portrayal of a badass too. And he was cool to say, "I want him to kick my ass longer because the longer I get my ass kicked, when I come back and save the day, then I have a genuine victory." And I think that's really smart for any hero to say in a film. You're only as good as the person you beat.
Jeffrey Harris: Another Blade 2, another big movie you were in was The Man opposite Samuel L. Jackson and Eugene Levy. It was more of a buddy/action comedy this time. How did you like working with Samuel L. Jackson and a funnyman like Eugene Levy?
