Wade Williams – Law Abiding
Q. What are some of the recent projects that you’ve been working on?
A. I’ve been writing songs and working on drafts of three different scripts, as well as learning to play the 5 string Banjo. I’m just getting the alternating thumb roll and I’ve mastered “Rocka My Soul,” not to mention shooting the second season of “Prison Break.”
Q. You’ll soon be seen in the movie Flicka. What can you tell us about the premise for the film and about your character?
A. Flicka is a remake of the old great My Friend Flicka. It’s a story about a young girl and her friendship with a wild mustang. I play a rodeo organizer who wrangles the cowboys in a wild mustang race.
Q. What made you want to be a part of this film?
A. It’s always a pleasure to be in a children’s film and it’s a nice to be in a heartwarming story. Plus, I’m a fan of Tim McGraw who plays the father of the little girl.
Q. You’ve also been working on the show “Prison Break.” Do you have a mostmemorable moment from working on the show?
A. I loved the scene when I climb out of the hole and say “Get me my shot gun.”
Q. What do you think it is about the show that continues to grip viewers?
A. think the relationship of the brothers is the key to “Prison Break,” the fact that one brother would sacrifice his life to save the other is Homeric. Now, they’re on a journey to freedom together; that’s some great story stuff too. Also, the writers have given the actors great material to chew on and for an actor that likes to chew the scenery; doesn’t get any better that that!
Q. With season two beginning, what are some of the changes we can see for your character?
A. Bellick looses his job, his retirement, his reputation and almost takes his own life. All he needs now is a girl!
Q. How has your role on “Prison Break” challenged you?
A. Bellick is an actors dream. I get to ride a roller coaster with Bellick. Going from smug arrogance to self hatred from remorse to sweet revenge; it’s a blast.
Q. What do you enjoy doing in your spare time?
A. I love to hang with my family, play the guitar, practice the fiddle, and now the banjo. I write songs and scripts. I love gardening and painting water colors and watching old movies with my wife.
Q. Do you have a latest obsession? Are you into any particular sport, book, music group or activity?
A. I enjoy reading biographies and auto biographies of Great People. I recommend the autobiographies of Benjamin Franklin, Charlie Chaplin and Mahatma Gandhi.
Q. What would you like to say to your fans and supporters?
A. I am proud to be part of a show like “Prison Break.” It’s always been my dream to have the chance to work in a great show with great people. Whatever your dreams may be; DO them. Action makes a dream come true. Follow your bliss and everything will work out, even better than you can imagine. Remember, patience and persistence will pay off big time in the end.
