Actor Q & A: Richard Phillis

Actor Richard Phillis

Richard Phillis knows his way around a movie set. According to IMDb, he's already completed nine film shorts with one film in post-production and another (ours!) currently in production. You've probably seen him in The Farm, and he's reprising his role as Sheriff Franklin in our latest production The Dawson War. Now you can get to know the actor a little bit better because we asked him a few questions. Enjoy!

Ghost Walk: What's a typical day in your life like?
Richard Phillis: I start my day by walking an hour as fast as I can walk for conditioning my legs and heart and my wind. Then I eat breakfast, shower, come home and study my latest script, go to bed early so I can get up early.

GW: If you were trapped in a haunted mansion with hostile ghosts, you would...
RP: Try to reason with them.

GW: What would people be surprised to know about you?
RP: I don't drink any alcohol.

GW: What motivates your character Sheriff Francis Franklin?
RP: I think he likes people to underestimate his abilities as a sheriff. He doesn't want people to see him coming, so he gets the upper hand.

Catch up with Richard in the latest installment of the Dawson family, coming out in 2014!
