Our Exclusive Interview with: @danielcudmore about @Baytown_Outlaws


Many of you know that Daniel is in a new movie called ‘The Baytown Outlaws’ the movie was previously called ‘The Baytown Disco’ but was changed when it was picked up for distribution.  The movie written by Barry Battles and Griffin Hood staring, Eva Longoria, Billy Bob Thorton, Paul Wesley and Daniel Cudmore as Lincoln Oodie.

We interviewed Dan about his audition process and what it was like playing the role of Lincoln who stands out in this instant cult classic.


Team Cudmore: What was your reaction when you were given the script for The Baytown Outlaws and you saw that Lincoln didn't say a word?
Dan:  I really liked what Barry and Griffen had penned but at first I really wanted to stay away from a character like that.. But the more I thought about it, it's even harder to react truthfully without having to speak, so it was a great challenge.

Team Cudmore:  Did you have to audition or did they pick you for the role?

Dan: Barry had me in mind since he saw XMen, so it was offered to me.

Team Cudmore: When you got on set, did you take advantage of staying quiet and “playing” with the see and say?
Dan: haha, I got to play around with the talk and say, but I enjoyed speaking when I could!

Team Cudmore: Did you practice your facial reactions in the mirror? Because I got to say they were quite funny and spot on.
Dan: No not at all, I just reacted to the situations and what the awesome actors around m were do.

Team Cudmore: The way the movie ended hinted at maybe a sequel, would you be interested in it, if it came about?
Dan:  I would love to do a sequel, I love working and the other actors and crew were such a blast to work with!  The characters could be explored so much more.
             
                 Thanks for the great questions!


The movie is in limited release, but still can be rented via iTunes and on demand in some locations, before its release. This movie is not to be missed. You will not be disappointed in what you see.

Plot Summary: The rousing rebel spirit of a family of Southern thugs takes off at breakneck speed in "The Baytown Disco" -- a wickedly playful, high-velocity action-comedy in which three infamously ruthless Alabama brothers find themselves on the wrong side of crooked cops, relentless Feds, mad mobsters, road pirates, tomahawk-wielding bikers, tricky femme fatales and an unforgettable cast of characters as colorful as they are lethal when they finally try to do a single good deed.

Academy Award® winner Billy Bob Thornton and Golden Globe winner Eva Longoria headline this wildly explosive, yet ultimately moving, tale of honor breaking out among thieves with madcap results. It all starts when the fetching Celeste (Longoria) has a falling out with her nefarious ex-husband Carlos (Thornton) who kidnaps her beloved son, Rob (Thomas Brodie Sangster). Knowing her ex can be a maniacal psychopath, not to mention a bit trigger-happy, she turns for help to the most bad-ass, lawless hit-man trio in Alabama: the Oodie Brothers.

Ringleader Brick (Clayne Crawford, "24," "The Glades"), mute wrestling phenom Lincoln (Daniel Cudmore, "The Twilight Saga"), and the baby of the brothers, the kick-ass G.I. McQueen (Travis Fimmel, "The Beast") are known for being mean as a bag of rattlesnakes --and measly kidnap rescues are not on their menu of services. But when Brick is unexpectedly moved by Celeste's plight, what he thinks is going to be an easy smash-and-grab job turns out to be the most hair-raising and hilariously intense adventure of his and his brothers' harrowing careers.

Suddenly the Oodies have their hometown Sheriff (Andre Braugher, "Men of a Certain Age," "Salt"), in a tangle; a pesky DEA Agent (Paul Wesley, "Vampire Diaries") on their trail, and Carlos and his heinous assortment of henchman out for their hides. With no one quite who or what they seem, they are headed for a showdown -- and a shot at redemption -- they never saw coming.
