★ Our Interview with Antonio Sabato Jr: ★
•Charmed Daily: How would you describe your character Bane Jessup in three words? •Antonio Sabato Jr: Strong, loving & passionate.
• CD: What’s the thing that comes right on your mind when you think of your character ( Bane Jessup)?•ASJ: Bane was a cool strong character with a big heart who truly cared for PRUE. I was fortunate enough to have played such a great character on Charmed. It was only one episode that Aaron Spelling offered me however, he later then called me back, which by the way was really cool! Aaron was a genius and a good friend and was always a class act, anyway, going back to the question. Bane was a blast to play and having the girls there made it even more fun.
•CD: If you would have to choose between “Ms. Hellfire” and “Give Me a Sign.” (You were fantastic in both episodes) which episode would you choose as your favorite? •ASJ: I can’t really choose because they were both fun and interesting, and there was some time in between, so it was like a new show to come to after the first one. And, it was so exciting to work with Shannen again as we did a movie together with director William Friedkin called Jailbreakers also starring Adrien Brody. I had a great time doing it! I missed the crew and the girls;I really wanted to come back and talk stories and catch up…
•CD: How was working with Alyssa Milano, Holly Marie Combs and Shannen Doherty? •ASJ: It was great working with the girls..they were sweet pros and a lot of fun to be around, really easy to work with and full of big smiles..they were all great!
•CD: Is there any memory that you will always remember (something funny that happened) on set of Charmed (episodes you guest starred in)? •ASJ: The memories are all pretty good, going to work doing a great show with huge popularity. Awesome cast full of really amazing people„ all I can remember was the professionalism and the care that came from Alyssa Milano, Holly Marie Combs and Shannen Doherty. The guest stars and the crew…were truly angels!
CD: Thank you so much for taking your time for doing this with us. Hope you will have lovely day, Charmed Daily. xo ASJ: You welcome. Take care, A.
