Interview: Matt Nix & Alfred Barrios Jr. from Burn Notice
We had a chance to sit down with Burn Notice creator/writer Matt Nix and executive producer Alfred Barrios Jr. recently at the 2009 Comic Con. Here's what was said:
Is this the first time Burn Notice has been at Comic-Con?
Matt Nix: Yes, it is.
What's it like really getting to interact with the fans like this?
Matt Nix: I have to say, well, great, is the short answer. Our big concern this morning was whether we were going to fill a room. We were kind of going like, "Oh yeah, it might be 2000." You know, we were hoping for like, half full. So that was stunning. You know, we all spend a lot of time with Bruce Campbell, but Jesus Christ.
Alfred Barrios Jr.: It was like being on stage with Elvis [laughs].
Matt Nix: It was obviously gratifying, but I'm not sure I will ever be able to look at Bruce in the same way [laughs].
Alfred Barrios Jr.: I think it changed our relationship forever.
Matt Nix: Yeah!
Speaking of Bruce Campbell, he mentioned possible plans about a Sam Axe TV movie. Would you like to talk to us a little bit more about that?
Matt Nix: It is something we discussed. It is something that Bruce and I would absolutely love to do. Were hoping that the powers that be can work it out. I mean, obviously in any endeavor like that, there's a lot of stuff to be worked out and a lot of discussion on all sides. I don't really get to control or have anything to do with that. Bruce and I are just guys, and we've talked about it. We think it would be great.
Is it just talk right now?
Matt Nix: It's more than talk, less than reality.
