It is an Irish cowboy.
The actor/director Ein Macken, who comes from Esmeralda Island, stars in the new western drama of Netflix “Ransom Canyon”, premiering Thorsday, April 17.
“The Irish people generally do not go abroad to go to the jeans camp when they are younger,” Macken, 42 years old, exclusive to the publication joked.
He added that he hit that distant from the cowboy world, just even the American iconography.
“But I feel that there really is a great story of some Irish [people] In some of the oldest western films, where there are Irish immigrants who seem to populate and float while traveling, “explained the actor. And I grew up watching that type of movies.”
“Ransom Canyon” is based on a series or romance Jodi Thomas novels. The story has a central love triangle that involves the Rancheros Kirkland states (Josh Duhamel), the owner of the Quinn Bailer (Minka Kelly) and the rival rancher of Staten, Davis (Macken). The characters also have to deal with the threats of the roads for their country, as well as personal and labor problems.
“The interesting thing about that concept of love triangle is that all are the important part of their own triangle,” Macken told The Post.
“Then, for Davis, I think that the most important thing about him is that he sees everything he is doing since his own point of view as the right thing.” There are good and bad elements of their behavior and personality, which inevitably appear in anyone’s situation, regardless of how much they try to exist. ”
Macken, who prior to Sir Gwaine in the BBC fantasy series “Merlin”, and starred in the NBC medical drama “Night Shift,” he said he was attracted to “Ransom Canyon” because he liked the idea of exploration or exploration in a type of experience or explored ” Or the gender of the cowboy.
On his past roles, he said: “Merlin is my favorite program that I have done, mainly because I have had many of my good friends in that program, but that program has also backed away, and many fans have been help or child, whose bangy or son. He made some comics and people still care about the program.”
He joked in “Merlin”, since he was playing a medieval knight, he prepared him for “Ransom Canyon” because he learned “what not to do” while riding a horse.
“I have had the experiences about ‘Merlin’ to be put on the horse, and the horse screwing and I only have to hold on to loved life while filming. So in [‘Ransom Canyon’]I thought: “Very well, these jeans are more controlled than the gentlemen!” Hey, he joked.
Macken explained that “Ransom Canyon” really sent the actors to the “jeans”.
“We did it during the first month before the movie …. We did many Wanggling, these little beautiful cows, and also how girls or direct them, and guides with the horse and work together for boys or basically corners.”
He said there was no lack of mass that time because all the actors do it seriously.
“We are all real quite well. Everyone really wanted to try … so anyone was kicked in the face by a cow.”
