Marco: (on doing his own stunts.) Yes. I won't flip a car or jump it over a bridge, but when it comes to fight scenes, they don't really require things that I'm unable to do. If I'm in danger, then of course my stunt double will do, but most of the fight scenes are pretty much choreography, and once you get it down, it's pretty easy to execute safely.
Marco: (on if he would work behind the camera) Very much so. I'm not ready to do that at this point, but I do have some ideas that I'd like to develop in the future. I think producing, writing and directing are all things that I have every intention of looking into.
Marco: (on his mentor) I have many. I could list them but I don't think anyone out there would be familiar with them. They are friends and family that have been a part of my life.
Marco: (on his fight scenes) We have a fight coordinator that pretty much orchestrates the whole thing. But it's one thing to have an idea in your mind, and it's another thing to try and implement it. So when we're all there together trying to get the scene shot, everybody collaborates as much as possible. And a good idea is a good idea and gets used regardless of who it comes from.
Marco: (on the fanfiction written by fans about his characters) I've heard about it but I haven't had a chance to read any of it, so I really can't comment. But I appreciate the enthusiasm of the fans that write it.
Marco: (on keeping in touch with the guys from SeaQuest) That was one of hte best things to come out of SeaQuest, lifelong friends that I met there. I made an independent film with Michael and Peter DeLuise, and speak with them quite often. As I mentioned I saw Ted Raimi two day ago. Ed Kerr just left my apartment ten minutes ago. He and I went on a hike this afternoon. And Don Franklin left a message on my machine today that he was in Hawaii and looked forward to catching up when he got back.
Marco: (on how he liked living and working in Dallas/Ft.Worth) Yes I do prefer LA. But Dallas, Ft. Worth has impressed me. There is a lot more to it than I had anticipated. Culturally, and I've met some really nice people out there. So I've had a good time although I still miss home.
Marco: (on the transition from Walker, Texas Ranger to Sons of Thunder) Very easy. I play the same character. I work with the same people, crew wise. The only thing that was difficult was having to work more hours. I went from being a co-star on Walker to being one of the leads on Sons of Thunder, so it requires a lot more from me, the days are longer. But all the same, I'm having a great time, enjoying myself a lot.
Marco: (on what he likes doing and being busy) Lately I've been very busy and I haven't had time to do a lot of things that I enjoy doing. It's been hard to find time to just read. In Dallas, there is not much hiking to be done. It's flat. There are many things I enjoy doing, none of which I have time for these days.
Marco: (on who's helped him the most.) Hmm. My parents. They've given me a lot of support when I've needed it, both moral as well as financial. They put me thru college and they've been there thru some pretty tough times.
Marco: (on being in the spotlight) I'm always flattered to hear that people enjoy my work. However, sometimes it can be difficult. I went to New Orleans with my girlfriend a few months ago, and we were having lunch. And one person came up, and then another came up. And then people were taking pictures of me. And meanwhile, we weren't able to have our meal, we weren't able to have a conversation. And so I'm sure how you can see how that would be difficult, marrying a desire to spend time with your girlfriend and enjoy your vacation, with your appreciation for fans that enjoy your work.
Marco: My desire to be an actor stems from my desire to act, not my desire to tell anybody how to live their lives.
