In SONS OF ANARCHY, now in its fifth season on FX on Tuesdays at 10 PM, nobody has it easy. In creator/executive producer Kurt Sutter’s drama about the members of a motorcycle gang and its members, characters have been beaten, raped, robbed, stabbed, shot, betrayed and murdered.

John C. Reilly voices the title hero in Disney’s WRECK-IT RALPH. He’s a real-life hero to the press attending the WRECK-IT RALPH premiere, because after every single one of his colleagues has disappeared inside the theatre, Reilly comes back out to make sure that every reporter who has been waiting for a quote gets one. In short, Reilly is the epitome of a class act. ASSIGNMENT X: Obviously, WRECK-IT RALPH isn’t motion-capture, but did you give the animators any sort of motion reference? JOHN C. REILLY: No, it’s not motion-capture. That’s like a dirty work at Disney Studios. The animators […]Read On »
