Sophia Myles On The Set Of 'Moonlight'

Friday, 16 May 2008

By Christina Radish



The CBS television series Moonlight is British actress Sophia Myles’ first experience with doing U.S. television, and she’s loving every minute of it. No stranger to the sci-fi/fantasy genre, Myles has had memorable roles in Underworld, Thunderbirds, Doctor Who and a BBC production of Dracula. Now, as Beth Turner, she is the love interest of vampire private investigator Mick St. John (Alex O’Loughlin).

Myles took time out of filming the second to last episode of the season to talk to MediaBlvd Magazine about what’s in store for her character.

MediaBlvd Magazine> Were you surprised by the success of the show?

Sophia Myles> Yeah. Coming into it, none of us really had any expectations and the success of it all has blown my mind. It’s really, really thrilling. The one thing that we love the most is that our fan base is so huge. I hear they’re giving blood now, and that says something, in itself. They’re donating blood to the Red Cross to try to make sure CBS gives us a second season.

MediaBlvd> You have a Viking/science fiction film, called Outlander, coming out? Can you talk about what that is?

Sophia> It will be out sometime this year. It’s set in 709 A.D. I play a Viking warrior princess in a small Viking village. Right at the beginning of the story, an alien ship crash lands onto Planet Earth, and onboard is Jim Caviezel, from The Passion of the Christ, and this terrifying Morwin, that looks like a dragon/bull. He’s brought that with him, from a galaxy far, far away. It’s an epic adventure, where we try to slay the beast. I haven’t seen that mixture of period and science fiction before, so that was interesting to me.
