Gary Sweet, who plays Drinian in the film The Voyage of the Dawn Treader spent a few moments talking to Spencer Howson at the Radio United broadcast. I’ve taken the time to transcribe what was said in the interview, here.
Spencer: You’re also currently filming the next Narnia movie on the Gold Coast.
Gary Sweet: That’s right, yeah. I’m on the Gold Coast for another sixteen weeks now.
Spencer: Tell me what you’re doing in Narnia, then.
Gary Sweet: Ah, well, I don’t know if I can actually tell you that, cause I actually did sign a confidentiality agreement, but look, there’s a ship involved and of course somebody has to be in charge of that ship. Let’s just leave it at that.
Spencer: So anyone who’s read the book will know full-well what you’re saying.
Gary Sweet: Yeah, exactly.
Spencer: That’s a film that’s going to have huge international appeal as part of this series. That’s gotta be pretty exciting to be working on.
Gary Sweet: Yeah, it is. Yeah, it’s very exciting. One of the great pluses for me is the director, a guy called Michael Apted whose just a legendary British director. […] Just the scope of this production, Spencer, is amazing. The digital stuff and the computer graphics and all that sort of stuff. It’s mind blowing. I missed all that, you know, I’m too old for that, plus I’m a technical moron. I’m not really good with all the technical side of things but geez they can do some amazing things now.
