Would Laurie Strode & Michael Myers Be Game For HALLOWEEN 3?
Share on Facebook
We recently sat down with both Scout Taylor-Compton and Tyler Mane for HALLOWEEN 2 roundtables (look for those later today) and chatted to both about portraying their iconic characters. Scout still gushes over getting the opportunity to play Laurie Strode:
"I had no idea I'd get to play her. My uncle would scare me with the Michael Myers mask when I was younger. And I was absolutely terrified of the movie and I never thought that I’d end up in a HALLOWEEN movie. Let alone play Laurie Strode. When I first heard about the audition, I just never thought it’d happen. I just thought it’d be so great. And I just kept getting closer and closer to it. And when I got it, I thought, 'Oh my God. I’m going to be Laurie Strode.' It’s crazy to me. I never would’ve imagined."
Would she be game to come back for HALLOWEEN 3 and give Laurie Strode one more chance?
"I’d be so game. I would. I would love to develop her a little bit more. I could see a lot that I would do with her, so yeah. I’d be real excited to do it again."
As for Tyler Mane, he's the only other actor besides George Wilbur to portray Michael Myers more then once. When asked about coming back for a HALLOWEEN 3, he paused and thought about it for a moment. Further pushing, I asked if he's "contractually obligated" to come back?
"No, I signed on for 2. I did the 2. But... it’s hard to say. (Pause) I’d have to see who’s doing it. And just see which way we wanted to take it. It’s kind of going to be hard to carry on from this one, and … if Michael Myers is going into space, well, I ain’t going! (Laughs)"
