The film takes place in an everyday American city, which, as it happens, is in the process of being taken over by a breed of super bugs. It\u2019s then up to a hapless group of survivors to take action and save the world.<\/p>\n<p>During the interview Wise was keen to discuss the project and had plenty to say about his character. Better still, he teased us with a little bit of information regarding a possible sequel to Infestation.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tell us about your character of Ethan in Infestation?<\/strong><br \/>\nWell I play a retired military service man and he is one of those very strong minded, independent men who I guess you could call a survivalist. And that\u2019s what he does in the picture. Basically he helps his son conquer the infestation.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Was it a fun film to work on?<\/strong><br \/>\nYeah it was a lot of fun. We shot the movie in Bulgaria and it was very interesting to be in that country. We shot in some beautiful mountain areas and we were just outside of Sofia. We enjoyed our time there a great deal.<\/p>\n<p><strong>You\u2019ve worked with director Kyle Rankin before. How was it teaming up with him for this picture?<\/strong><br \/>\nYes we\u2019ve worked together quite a bit before. I worked on one of earliest films when he was still living back in Maine, and that was called Pennyweight. It was a festival film and he got some notice for that. Also, we did a little online series called Hellholes together \u2013 it\u2019s quite good. So yeah, we have a long history.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Will there be a sequel to Infestation? <\/strong><br \/>\nWell I know that they\u2019ve discussed it; it\u2019s been talked about. But I couldn\u2019t say for certain that it will happen.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><em>Infestation is released on DVD and Blu-ray on 07 September, courtesy of Icon Home Entertainment.<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.scifinow.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/09\/infest_blu_3d.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-5131 aligncenter\" title=\"infest_blu_3d\" src=\"http:\/\/www.scifinow.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/09\/infest_blu_3d-217x300.jpg\" alt=\"infest_blu_3d\" width=\"217\" height=\"300\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ray Wise talks to SciFiNow about Infestation<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":5133,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"MSN_Categories":"Uncategorized","MSN_Publish_Option":false,"MSN_Is_Local_News":false,"MSN_Is_AIAC_Included":"Empty","MSN_Location":"[]","MSN_Add_Feature_Img_On_Top_Of_Post":false,"MSN_Has_Custom_Author":false,"MSN_Custom_Author":"","MSN_Has_Custom_Canonical_Url":false,"MSN_Custom_Canonical_Url":""},"categories":[140,3],"tags":[1029,1028],"acf":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/www.scifinow.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/09\/0000043434_200709261239452.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.scifinow.co.uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5128"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.scifinow.co.uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.scifinow.co.uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.scifinow.co.uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.scifinow.co.uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5128"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.scifinow.co.uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5128\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.scifinow.co.uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/5133"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.scifinow.co.uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5128"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.scifinow.co.uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5128"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.scifinow.co.uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5128"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
