Hollywood Byte #47: Eragon
John Gaudiosi talks to Edward Speleers, star of the fantasy action film and video game, Eragon.
"There are a lot of things that I want to do, but if I got the opportunity to reprise this role in a sequel than I'd definitely do it," said Speleers. "I had so much fun making it I'd definitely want to experience that all over again."
One offshoot that might occur as the result of the Eragon movie and game is more dragons on the big, and small screen.
"Maybe now that we have the technology to make the dragon more believable and make it seem like an actual character is one of the reasons we'll likely see more fantasy films that feature dragons," said Speleers.
In addition to Eragon, Sony's working on Lair, a fantasy game that features dragons for PlayStation 3, which will be released in 2007. So it looks like gamers will be able to ride the skies for some time to come.
