The V Files recently caught up and spoke with David Richmond – Peck, a Leo Award winner, who has bridged both film and television, comedy and drama successfully, making him one of Canada’s most visible young actors.. He’s now VERY visible in V: The New Series as ” Georgie Sutton,” who is  definitely one of the fans favorite characters and one of the most talked about characters in the series..

David’s passion for acting started in high school when he began to do public speaking.. Although he majored in Political Science at the University of Western Ontario, David was unable to shake the acting bug.. He eventually found a home in Langara College’s highly regarded theatre programme, Studio 58, where he began accepting professional acting roles in his second year and has not looked back..

Blessed with a wide and versatile range, David has come to be known for disappearing into every role and radically transforming his look for each new character.. With over 50 roles under his belt in the past nine years, he’s definitely one of Canada’s busiest actors..

His previous work  include SG – 1 and Stargate: Atlantis ( Different characters ), Fantastic Four, BSG, Traveler, Smallville, and The Day The Earth Stood Still.. His latest work was seen in the blockbuster 2012 and now V: The New Series.. Where will will see his performance next? As ” Prince John “ in Beyond Sherwood Forest.. He has also just finished work ing on Smokin’ Aces 2: Assassins’ Ball and is currently working on the Sci – Fi thriller Paradox..

Born and raised in Oakville, Ontario, David was a born athlete.. Between gigs he can be found pushing his boundaries kite – boarding off Jericho Beach or Boundary Bay.. His other interests range from snowboarding to advanced Scuba diving, horseback riding, squash, rugby, football, and skiing.. He is also an accomplished sailor, a family tradition that has seen David race in several off – shore competitions ( C.O.R.K. )..

David spoke with The V Files about his character and development for ” Georgie Sutton,” and the show..

The V Files: Were you a fan of V: The Original Mini – Series?
David Richmond – Peck: I was very much a fan of V.. I was also very young and extremely scared.. I don’t remember much other than a few images.. I had a long debate with myself regarding whether I should watch it before starting the new series.. I wanted to but I also didn’t want to affect or pull my performance in any direction.. So, I’ve decided to wait to watch it again until I know Georgie has been put to bed..

TVF: Can you tell us how you came into the role? Were you offered / auditioned?
DRP: I auditioned.. It was a very hectic time for me so I came a little late to the game.. I was shooting Joe Carnahan’s prequel to ” Smoking Aces “ with director P.J. Pesce and I didn’t have much time.. In fact, I had to push the audition a few times.. Man, I am glad I got it done..

TVF: Can you give us insight into your V character..
DRP: I don’t like to give too much away when discussing the character.. I find it limits the opinions of others when they know exactly what I’m playing.. I’ll give you a few broad strokes..  I’ve done a lot of thinking about what it means to choose a life such as Georgie’s.. I also wonder about how much of that is choice and how much was decided by his destiny and circumstance.. I think he struggles with it but his sense of purpose and knowledge of self allows him to understand that the resistance is way bigger than this moment.. His sole purpose ( And ‘ soul ‘ purpose ) is to keep the resistance alive and protect man from extinction..

TVF: What did you like about the character to want to play ” Georgie?”
DRP: I thought I really understood what he was trying to say.. What he wanted to communicate.. I gravitate toward complex characters and I knew Georgie would keep me fulfilled as an actor.. I also thought it was a great story..

TVF: How did you develop the character Georgie.. Eg: Inspiration for character..
DRP: Wow.. That’s an answer I could talk about for days.. Script, script, script, and research, research, research.. I did everything I could to make him absolutely real to me.. When I finally narrowed down and edited his purpose for being, the one overriding factor that influenced all his decisions, I  went back and answered all the questions again.. Character research is like a game to me.. I find it fascinating.. The better I know the character the better I can help the writers tell the story.. The greatest thing about a show like this is now I get to see him evolve..

I had many conversations with my fiancèe Kelly – Ruth Mercier about the starting point for Georgie’s creation.. I then had to understand what it was truly like to be so passionate about something that I would risk dying for a cause.. I’m all about self preservation so it was an interesting struggle.. Kelly – Ruth suggested I start researching terrorism.. I had to figure out the psychology behind the action.. She suggested that I look into Middle Eastern history, religion and politics, in an effort to gain deeper understanding into what it means to truly live or die for what you believe in.. I then expanded that research into psychological analysis of terrorist and suicide bombers.. I did a lot of thinking while walking around at night.. The location we used for Father Jack’’s church is quite close to where I live.. I don’t know how to explain it but seeing that church at night just seemed to help put it all together..

TVF: Where would you like to see the character go?
DRP: I have lots of ideas but I’m going to leave that to the hands of the writers.. I will say this: character could go anywhere and possibilities are endless..

TVF: Do you compare your character to any of the characters in the Original Mini – Series?
DRP: I don’t like to compare and I’m not familiar enough with the original.. I have heard people describe the character as both Willie and Ham Tyler..

TVF: What’s the relationship like between Georgie and Ryan ( Morris Chestnut ) and their battle against the V’s?
DRP: That relationship is complicated.. There are definitely underlying issues of trust.. That doesn’t mean we wouldn’t make a good team … it just means we are conflicted..

TVF: Can you give us any more details about ” John May?”
DRP: I could, but then I’d have to kill you..

TVF: Will the Visitors finally catch up with Georgie?
DRP: I think it would be interesting if they did.. I think in order to survive this long, Georgie has had to live a very careful life.. That doesn’t mean it won’t catch up with him.. I’ll have to wait and find out what the writers want to put me through..

TVF: Is there anything that can stop the V’s, like a weapon? Red dust etc? Does the ” R6 ” have the same kind of feel?
DRP: We’re working on it.. ( Laughing )..

TVF: There’s a big cliffhanger in episode four.. Should we worry about anyone dying?
DRP: I think in a show like this you should be worried at all times.. We are at war.. There is always the possibility of casualties..

TVF: Do you guys know what is happening due to ratings? Are we definitely seeing it return next year in March?
DRP: The show is just getting started.. I think we’re going to see some growth.. There really isn’t anything like it on television..

TVF: When do you go back into production? Is there a date set?
DRP: We don.t have a set date but production starts up again in January 2010..

TVF: What’s your average day like shooting V?
DRP: The average day is made of long hours, high stakes, and also demands a tremendous amount of mental energy.. I wouldn’t trade it for anything.. I think being an actor is the best job on the planet..

Thanks Daivd for taking the time to answer our and fans questions.. Look forward to seeing your character develop..

Don’t miss the final episode of 2009.. V: The New Series 1.04 ” It’s Only the Beginning “ airs tonight at 8 / 7c on ABC.. This will be the last episode for the year and the ” Pod..” The V Files recently posted in response to one of the main emails we have been getting.. This post explained the reason why Episode 1.04 will be the last episode til March 2010..

” It’s Only the Beginning “ features a multiple cliffhangers.. Specifically, there are five twists, which we a forbidden from telling you about.. One of them, actually, we couldn’t begin to do justice … if only because the rough cut we saw didn’t feature any SFX needed for the potentially stupefying scene.. The cliffhangers will hopefully have fans sitting on the edge of their seat wanting more..

Is V: The New Series in trouble?

V: The New Series s01e03 saw ratings and audience drop significantly again, down 18 percent to 9.3 million ( 3.1 rating among adults 18 – 49 ).. That after a precipitous 29% drop in week two from the blockbuster premiere..

One of the worst parts of starting a season later than everyone else is that you’re growing pains are much more noticeable when everyone else is already through theirs.. That’s exactly what V: The New Series is facing in its third week after losing another 9% of its audience to finish with a 6.0 rating / 9 share, according to Fast National ratings from The Nielsen Co.. Not only is that a drop from the previous week, but it’s now more than 29% off its series premiere..

In all, however, V: The New Series remains this season’s best – rated network genre show, averaging a 7.0 / 10, and still doing stronger after three episodes than ABC’s other genre series, FlashForward.. That Brannon Braga / David S. Goyer vehicle premiered with a 7.7 / 3 compared to V’s 8.5 / 13, and was down to a 5.9 / 9 by its third episode.. FlashForward is currently averaging a 6.1 / 10 after eight episodes..

For the 3rd consecutive week, V: The New Series ranked No. 1 in the 8 o’clock hour among Men 18 – 34 ( 2.6 / 9 – tie ), while taking second among Men 18 – 49 ( 3.2 / 9 ) and Men 25 – 54 ( 3.9 / 10 ).. In addition, V ranked as the No. 1 program on Tuesday among Men 18 – 34 for the 3rd week running..

Versus the year – ago November Sweep night, V: The New Series has improved the hour for ABC by 29% in Adults 18 – 49 ( 2.4 / 6 )..

And V: The New Series has some tough competition.. It goes head – to – head with CBS powerhouse NCIS, which recorded a 12.3 / 19 this week, finishing above its 12.1 / 19 average for the second week in a row.. It remains the top – rated network program, and by far the top – rated scripted network program as right now only ABC’s Dancing With the Stars can compete with it..

While at least one news outlet is characterizing the ratings for V: The New Series as something that has the show in deep trouble, in reality, it’s still performing well for ABC.. So why would they be canceling?

There is just one episode left of V: The New Series this year, but there is no question ABC plans to bring the show back in the spring.. Of course, it’s still too early to tell if the show will continue for a second season or not, but sources have confirmed to The V Files that they have not heard any talk about a demise for V: The New Series..

ABC has already brought in a new showrunner in Scott Rosenbaum, indicative that they weren’t all that pleased with the direction the series was going.. Perhaps, if the viewership can level out here, or even if it drops again, ABC will still give Rosenbaum a chance to show what he can do.. If V: The New Series can maintain an average of 9 million, the show may be safe..

V: The New Series will be paying homage to V: The Original throughout the series.. The V Files mentioned about 2 weeks ago, that one of the ways that V: The New Series will pay homage was by using the same alphabet used in the Original.. Here is some stills from the upcoming episode 1.03 ” A Bright New Day..”

If you are a huge and dedicated fan, like we are, you will notice what the sign says.. Going from left to right and top to bottom, the sign says Anna’s greeting.. ” We are of Peace..”

IESB.net has recent interviewed Elizabeth Mitchell ( Erica Evans ).. During the interview, Elizabeth speaks about LOST and V: The New Series.. Here is what she had to say about V: The New Series:

IESB.net: Will there be more action for you, coming up in V?
Elizabeth Mitchell: Yes.. There is more kick – ass action.. I like the second episode even better than the pilot.. It’s not cerebral.. It is so active that you find yourself caught up in it.. It made me very happy..

I: Had you seen the original V when it was on television?
E: I did watch the show, when I was kid.. I think I was about 13.. I was allowed to watch an hour of television with my parents.. I really liked it.. I liked the escape of it, and I liked the entertainment of it.. It was a fun night for me.. We made a celebration of it, and I hope that other teenagers will do that with their parents now.. It’s something that kids don’t do as much anymore.. Oh, my God, I sound like I’m 80..

I: Did your memories of the original V come back, when you started this?
E: They did come back.. And, I also feel a tremendous obligation to the people who watched before, to not mess it up.. However, my character didn’t really exist.. She’s a compilation of other characters, therefore I’m given a little bit of a gift, of not having to fill the shoes that Morena ( Baccarin ) is having to do, which she does really beautifully and completely differently, and that is so nice.. But, I’m able to really love the old and not feel bad about the new.. It’s good..

I: Did you re – shoot the fight scene in pilot?
E: Yes.. I wasn’t as skilled a fighter in the pilot, as I am now, so my punch looked a little like a 12 – year – old girl’s.. But, I don’t think that’s why.. They wanted it to be more dangerous, higher tech, they wanted the guys to look sincerely terrifying, when they coming after us, and they wanted them to have more gadgets.. I’m a gadget girl.. I like them..
