Adam Boyer Interview
I played Bat Smock Man. One of the two Butchers of Terminus.

- Hello Adam Boyer and thank you for your time for the Fans of The Walking Dead.


- Adam , When was the time you know you want to be an actor?

When I realized I was not going to be the next Pele. I  played soccer my whole life. For a short time actually in Germany but I wasn’t good enough to be an impact player at a professional level so I moved on to writing and acting.



- You worked in one of my Favorite series. "The Walking Dead". How did you get cast as a Member of Terminus?
I get cast in things pretty much the same way for everything, my agent sends me an audition email and I tape for the show and once in a while I book it.



- Which role did you play in the series?
I played Bat Smock Man. One of the two Butchers of Terminus.



- Working in TWD Universe, What is the first what you remember when you look back on set?
I knew Melissa McBride “Carol” but hadn’t seen her since the show started so it was cool to get to see her.


- What do you think has been the key to this show’s success and why have people responded to it like they have?
I think the show did really well keeping two different sets of fans happy for a long time. The people who watched it for the gore and the people who watched it for the relationships.



- With a role in TWD Universe comes a Big Fan Community, what are your first The Walking
Dead fan experiences?

People are HUGE fans of this show!!  For starters, I was very grateful NOT to have killed Glen. I can’t imagine the amount of heat I would have caught for that! The fans of the WD are diehard! They stood outside while we shot in terrible weather.



- Adam , in your work in so many series and Movies like "Stranger Things" , "The Waltons" , "Halloween" , "Ozark"...... What is after all this years your personal highlight?
I have a few personal highlights. Getting to work with Tom Hanks, Clint Eastwood, Anthony Hopkins and of course the WD cast doing what I love to do is a dream.




- Are you currently working on anything interesting Movie or Series outside "The Walking Dead" that you can reveal?
I just wrapped a couple of projects but if everyone goes to see Red One this Xmas that’d be great!!



- Is there any dream role or actor/actress you would loved to work in the future?
As far as dream rolls, I’m a writer so I better just write them. And Brendan Gleeson is someone I’m always hoping to work with. I think he’s such a brilliant actor.



- Is there anything else you would like to let TWD Fans and your fans know?
WD was truly one of the nicest sets I’ve ever been on! And I’ve been doing this for 30 years! Andy Lincoln, Norman Reedus and Steven Yuen really went out of their way to make me feel welcomed and deserve all of their appreciation and more!!


- Thank you being my guest Adam Boyer and best wishes for the future. I hope to see you one day in Germany.
