Think Keanu ReevesConstantineand Bruce CampbellsAsh vs. the Evil Deadwith a dash ofBrimstoneandDog the Bounty Hunter.
Youve not seen this kind of combination of genres ever.
All eight episodes ofThe Bondsmanwill be released on Prime Video on April 3.
“Yes of course, there are all kinds of demon shows and movies and we love it.
Thats almost a genre unto itself.
And by the way, theres going to be Kevin Bacon driving chainsaws through demons foreheads.
Kevin Bacon plays a demon bounty hunter inThe Bondsman.
That was the fun of it.”
The tough sardonic character hes portraying here inThe Bondsmanseems tailor made.
“I think hes Dorian Gray, Oleson jokes.
Kevin Bacons stars alongside Jolene Purdy in the new seriesThe Bondsman.
He might have actually sold his soul.
Kevin is attracted to characters that have different contradictions and dimensions, as the Hub Halloran character does.
“It allows Kevin to play different tones that Mr. Bacon is capable of doing.
Kevin Bacon and co-star Jennifer Nettles made a new album,Hell and Back,forThe Bondsman.
Working with the greatest filmmakers of the last two generations!
So Kevin is a terrific partner for a showrunner as youre building a show from scratch.
We were in constant communication about how to dial in the tone.
Through the process Kevin would do takes where some were more comedic and some were more dramatic.
Hed make different choices in scenes so that in the edit room wed have the option.
Hes not just a great actor, hes also a very smart producer.
“Offscreen hes just a professional and shows up prepared and sets that example for the cast and crew.
Everybody ended up friends at the end of it, and Kevin was instrumental in all of that.”
“Kevin Bacon and co-star Jennifer Nettles wrote original music and we put it into the series.
They actually cut an EP, in character, that releases the day after the show drops.
I dont know if you want to use it on the show.
“So thats the other aspect I think will really make it fun for audiences to watch.”
