As professional as ever, the schedule is hectic, but Mr. Nevius loves every minute of it. I've never had such an exhausting yet invigorating schedule as I did on Black Scorpion. I'd be at the studio at 6AM to supervise the start of that day's production. During lunch, I'd watch the footage that was shot the day before, then go to the corporate office to hold auditions for guest stars. I'd stop off at the editing bay to give notes on rough cuts and finally go home at 8PM to have dinner and polish the script for next week's episode.
Viewers get to watch an extremely entertaining show and the actors get to build up their characters.
Craig wrote the Breathtaker in a very complex way. He's sinister but at the same time sympathetic. The part was worth waiting 30 years for. I had to sit in a make-up chair for three hours every morning and get staples shot into my face and tubes run through my nose and cheeks. After all, the part would have to be as good as the Riddler.
