Exclusive Video Interview: Bostin Christopher and Krystal Vee Talk Thailand, Training and the World of The Scorpion King 3

By thehorrorchick
January 4th, 2012

In this installment of our week-long coverage of Universal Studio Home Entertainment's latest Scorpion King sequel, The Scorpion King 3: Battle for Redemption, we chat with actors Bostin Christopher (whom many of you may remember as the titular character from the criminally overlooked 2008 horror comedy Otis) and Krystal Vee.

The Scorpion King 3 sees our hero, Mathayus (Victor Webster), as an assassin-for-hire who struggles to defend a kingdom against his rival, the treacherous Talus (Billy Zane), who has summoned three 'ghost warriors' (Kimbo Slice, Dave Bautista, Selina Lo) to do his evil bidding. Mathayus, facing insurmountable challenges against an all-powerful nemesis and his other-worldly defenders, must rely on the help of a few friends, including fellow warriors Olaf (Christopher) and Silda (Vee), in order to regain his empire and successfully win the Battle for Redemption against Talus and his other-worldly minions.

During the recent press day for The Scorpion King 3: Battle for Redemption, Dread Central had the opportunity to sit down and chat with Mathayus' cohorts - Christopher and Vee - to hear more about their differing experiences while making this third installment in Thailand (Vee being a popular Thai actress and Christopher never before working anywhere outside of North America), the extensive fight training both had to endure for their roles, and whether or not they'd be up for more adventures with The Scorpion King.

Check out our video interview with the pair below, and look for more on The Scorpion King 3: Battle for Redemption coming your way later this week!
