Movie Synopsis: Aleks plays
Tyler Draven, a football superstar who had the world
in his hands but over time and massive amounts of steriod use his temper and numerous arrests have
lead him to be kick out of the league. After a fire
and burned to near death, Draven's molecular
structure of his D.N.A is manipulated with the
combination of a plethera of designer steriods and
sulfur from the fire has given him the ability to BE
fire. Draven is now on a mission to get back at
everyone he feels wronged him.
Aleks had a very
challenging time with this role as he was put
through 4 hours a day training sessions with trainer
Brent Cote and strict diet 12 days before shooting.
"this was the first time in my career that I went
through so many changes visually as an actor, loved
every second of it, the work the Brent put me though
and keeping me on my diet was on of the main reasons
I was prepared for this role. Brent got me in the
headspace of a beast." Aleks also shaved his head
for this role. "I never had my head shaved for a
role, I mean Bic shaved. but a meeting with
Kristofer Tabori, the director of the film, and
talking how it was needed I decided that it was the
best for the role. I'm looking forward to the
experience and so far its been a blast." The film
also stars Ian Somherhalder (Lost) and Lexa Doig
(Andromeda). "We are working around 12 hour days if
not more and when your working so much on a film you
kinda pray your gonna be working with amazing
people, well, I have to say i have never laughed so
much on a movie, and we are only half way done! Lexa
is one of the funniest, coolest, and stupidly
attractive women i have ever met and Ian and I are
constantally laughing and telling gross jokes, who
can out gross and out laugh each other, so far he's
winning in the
make-the-other-person-laugh-while-drinking-and-it-coming-out-your- nose
department. Its a blessing to be on this film."
