Geektown Radio MCM Comic Con Birmingham Special: Sean Gunn, Michael Rooker & Mark Sheppard

On the Geektown Radio podcast this week we have a special edition show featuring three interviews from last weekend's MCM Comic Con Birmingham!

The first interview is with 'Guardians Of The Galaxy' & 'Gilmore Girls' star Sean Gunn. In the chat he talks about playing Kraglin in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, along with playing the "on-set" stand in for Rocket Racoon! He also discusses what it's like to work with your older brother as director, and the awesome mix soundtracks from the film. Plus he talks a little bit about returning to the character of Kirk in the 'Gilmore Girls' revival.

Next we chat to Sean's 'Guardians Of The Galaxy' co-star, Michael Rooker. The actor, of course, played the blue coloured, fin-headed Yondu in the first two GotG movies, so discusses what it's like to get into that make up, and the infamous "Mary Poppins" line. He also chats a little about his early work in 'Henry: Portrait Of A Serial Killer' and his other massive role as Merle Dixon in ‘The Walking Dead’. 

The last interview is with one of my favourite actors, Mark Sheppard. Mark is probably best known as Crowley in ‘Supernatural’ but has appeared such a ridiculous amount of shows over the years. He played Badger in our beloved 'Firefly', Romo Lampkin in ‘Battlestar Galactica’, and Canton in ‘Doctor Who’. He's also starred in ‘Warehouse 13’, ‘NCIS’, ‘CSI’, ’24’, ‘Leverage’, ‘White Collar’, ‘Chuck’, ‘Burn Notice’, ‘Bionic Woman’, ‘Charmed’, ‘Star Trek: Voyager’, plus many many more! It's was a really fasinating chat with a guy who has worked across the industry.
