We need him now more than ever.”Īnd, if you’re going to bring back a lesser known hero with hopes to elevate him to the status of icon, who better than Bruce Campbell to do it? Even if it takes another decade or so for people to “get it”.Ĭheck out Sgt. some of these characters have just fallen by the wayside and, come on Sarge, we need ya man. Reflecting on the appeal of a character who, in a comic universe populated by meta humans, can be taken out by a sniper’s bullet, Campbell says, “I wanna bring him back. “His super powers are loyalty, he’s courageous, and he’s patriotic.” He’s a great hero because he could be killed at any moment,” Campbell explains. Rock, a character he’d loved as a child in the 60s, was part of DC’s roster. “I was contacted by DC and they said ‘hey we wanna bring some of our characters into the horror world,” Campbell explains, “and I’m not known as a comic book writer, I think, ’cause I’m a horror guy, they went, ‘I dunno, try Campbell, see what he’s up to.” He proceeded to pour through a database of DC heroes only to discover that Sgt. Sgt Rock vs the Army of the Dead, an upcoming publication for DC, marks the first time that Campbell has been a Comic-Con promoting a comic. While Evil Dead Rise may not combine genres, another of Campbell’s soon to be released projects does. Where does that darn book show up?”Īn apartment, apparently, in Evil Dead Rise where Campbell explains the story centers around a single mom, features some bad family dynamics and will “freak your sh*t out.” While it may not be a direct sequel to the 2013 film, it will, like it’s predecessor, be a horror film, and not fall into the horror-comedy hybrid genre of Evil Dead 2or Starz’s 2015 series Ash vs Evil Dead, in which Campbell returned to star as longtime trash talking protagonist Ash Williams. “It’s not that kind of timeline,” says Campbell. Bad Book in the Big CityĬampbell is also serving as Executive Producer on the upcoming Evil Dead Risewhich he confirms is not a direct continuation of the 2013 Evil Dead from director Fede Álvarez and, furthermore, will not see the return of Jane Levy’s Mia. If he came as a super hero, Doctor Strange would go ‘Woah! I gotta do some weird digital sh*t!'”įor legal reasons, Campbell could not divulge any further details. He’s not a pizza vendor okay? That’s the role that he played so that he could slip into Doctor Strange’s world, ‘oh I’m just a pizza vendor, guy on the side of the street’. According to Campbell, “Pizza Poppa is Doctor Strange’s savior.” And furthermore? The pizza selling is all an act, apparently. He goes on to describe the interchangeable nature of the Pizza Poppas across the Multiverse, whom he likened to black socks. You think Pizza Poppa’s done? Think again.” Don’t you think that’s significant? He basically didn’t get hit by a taxi because of that interaction, so I had to save his life for a reason. I changed the frickin’ timeline of Doctor Strange by 45 seconds. “Oh he had a little part, a little cameo,” he says bitterly, “not when it’s pivotal. 45 Seconds to Change it AllĬampbell insists that his recent role as Pizza Poppa (or P², as he calls to him) was far more than a gimmick to keep up with the tradition of Bruce appearing, at least briefly, in most of Raimi’s films. Decked out in what he referred to as “unemployed actor” threads, Campbell joined us at San Diego Comic Con to discuss the upcoming Blu-ray release of the Doctor Strange as well as his upcoming projects both in and out of the feverishly beloved Evil Dead franchise. From numerous Evil Dead sequels and spinoffs, to Burn Notice, to his latest instantly iconic cameo in longtime collaborator Sam Raimi’s Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, Campbell has borne it all with his characteristic blend of sarcasm and charm. There are few people as at ease in the convention circuit as actor and author Bruce Campbell.
