One Fast Move Star Eric Dane on Motorcycles & Embracing Film's Empathy
BC: What intrigued you about One Fast Move?
ED: I love motorcycles, and I love the world of Superbike racing, but what intrigued me the most was the relationship between Wes (Kapa) and Dean (Dane) and the dynamics those two work with. A role like this is challenging and it's easy to make this guy come off as a deadbeat. The challenge is empathy and allowing the audience to experience the same.
How do you break down the set Kelly ran?
[Kelly] runs his set like the way most run theirs. Kelly was great because he had tremendous instincts, and he knew when to intervene, express to the actors what he was trying to get out of this scene, and what his overall vision was. He was also really good at knowing when to stay away.
Can you discuss the cast working with K.J.? May, Edward, and Austin?
K.J. was great. We became fast friends, you make movies, and it's a traveling circus on location, you're spending a lot of time with people, and you become friends. Sometimes when the production ends, people go their separate ways and some of those friendships dissolve, but I was on the phone with K.J. yesterday. We've become very close and he's a keeper. I'm keeping him from this production. I'm taking him with me because he's a great kid. I'm grateful I have him in my life. Edward James Olmos is a legend. It's a gift to be able to work with that master craftsman.
One Fast Move, which also stars Austin North and Jackson Hurst, is available on Prime Video.
