I Was Going To Be

I Like Playing A Character Every Day. I Like Having Something To Go Back To. I Always Enjoyed That With 'will & Grace.' I Like The Camaraderie. I Like Having A Crew That I Know And I Can Work With Every Day.

I Did The Commish And An Episode Of Neon Rider, And Then I Got The Series Called Street Justice, Which I Ended Up Doing About 18 Episodes Of.

The Things Had Been Made A Half A Dozen Times From Silent Pictures Through The '30s And '40s. In Fact, I Think There's A Version In The '50s. And Then, Of Course, Spielberg Eventually Did A Version Of The Lost World, But This [filming] Was '91, I Think. And We Shot It In Zimbabwe.

I'd Never Been To Africa. This Really Was My First Film [the Lost World]. I'd Done 10 Years Of Stage. I'd Done A Little Bit Of Television. But This Was My First Film.

Brad Wright, Who Created Grant Maclaren, Had Me In Mind. We'd Actually Worked Together 20 Years Ago. He Wrote An Episode Of The Outer Limits That I Was In In '96 Or '95? So We'd Been Aware Of Each Other For Years. I'd Lived In Vancouver Off And On, Where He's Based. And It Just Came To Me, And I'm Always Looking For Something Different. Perception Was A Different Show Than Will & Grace.
