Fred Willard radiates a unique charm that has established him as one of the industry’s most gifted comic actors, first coming to prominence as ambitious but dimwitted sidekick Jerry Hubbard to Martin Mull’s smarmy talk-show host Barth Gimble in the devastating satirical series “Fernwood 2 Night” (1977). A master of sketch comedy, he is most heralded for his quick wit and improvisational expertise. His over 70 appearances in sketches on “The Tonight Show with Jay Leno” are indicative of his ability to transform any character into a unique comic portrayal. Fred recently completed a sold-out run of his one-man show, “Fred Willard: Alone At Last!” (with a cast of [...]

1. You recently played a role in Scott Goldberg’s upcoming film, “Illuminated”. How did that role come about?
I really believe in Scott Goldberg’s talent as a filmmaker and I’ve been trying to work on another project with Scott since working with him two years ago on THE DAY THEY CAME BACK. I was bummed I couldn’t be part of FORREST HILLS. But we’ve stayed in touch with each other and when he sent me the script for ILLUMINATED, I was very intrigued with the story line. Also, I came to respect the ’super short’ format and how that type of film is very useable to film festival coordinators [...]

1. Please tell us a bit about your background. Where are you from and what inspired you to become an actor?
Oh well, that goes a long way back. I now live in Copenhagen, the capitol of Denmark, but I grew up in Aarhus, second biggest city in Denmark.
For as long as I can remember I’ve been fascinated by films. Genres changed through the years. As a kid in the early 80’s I was hooked on Star Wars and the 007 films. Always wanted to be up there as a part of the action. Throughout my teenage years I turned very much towards horror films, such as the Friday the 13th [...]

The film is currently being shot in Vancouver, BC with an expected release date of June 15, 2006. The film also stars Ioan Gruffudd, Jessica Alba, Chris Evans and Michael Chiklis.

Please tell us a bit about your background. Where are you from and what inspired you to become an actor?
Hey Brian: Okay, let’s see. I’m from Arlington Massachusetts. Right outside Boston. Both my parents are creative types. An architect and a graphic designer. I grew up building things and still do. Building’s very practical and although I admired actors like Robert De Niro, I never felt acting was a practical profession. It was however a private dream. I was drawn to it. I finally got into it in college and loved how scary it was. I was very quickly encouraged to do more by my professor and fellow students. That [...]

Mr. Divoff you’ve actually have been in 60 some odd movies, but a lot of people know you from your Wishmaster movies, would you like to talk a little bit about some of your other movies you’ve done?
Yea as a matter of fact, I just went over 51 on the IMDB. I know there’s probably a few things missing there. But sometimes people ask, you know, if I had to give them one film which one would I tell them to watch, and I can’t do that…so I usually say there are three of my favorites; one of course which is “Another 48 hours”, the other is of course “Wishmaster”, [...]
