According to Brian Gallagher who posted the interview, &#8220;&#8230; the disc topped all three home video charts in its first week in release.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The focus of the interview was <em>Max Payne<\/em>, but Gallagher also got a chance to talk with Bridges about his upcoming projects, as well as a possible return to the <em>Stargate<\/em> franchise:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong>MovieWeb:<\/strong> So is there any chance for any sort of a <em>Stargate<\/em> resurrection with you?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Beau Bridges:<\/strong> Well, I haven&#8217;t talked directly with those guys for awhile, but I know they have a new show coming out called <a href=\"\/wiki\/Stargate_Universe\"><em>Stargate Universe<\/em><\/a>. They&#8217;ve got a complete new cast, but there has been talk, just rumors, that maybe they&#8217;ll have some of the <em>Stargate SG-1<\/em> cast back, but I don&#8217;t know. I enjoyed doing that. I did that for two, three years, maybe almost four years with the movies that I did. It was a good experience and I wouldn&#8217;t mind at all going back and doing some more.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Movie Web:<\/strong> What can you tell us about some of your upcoming projects, like <em>Don&#8217;t Fade Away<\/em>, <em>Dirty Politics<\/em>, or anything else that you&#8217;re eyeing up or working on?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Beau Bridges:<\/strong> Yeah. I just finished my looping on <a href=\"http:\/\/us.imdb.com\/title\/tt0899145\/\"><em>Don&#8217;t Fade Away<\/em><\/a> with Mischa Barton. It seems like it&#8217;s a pretty good movie. It has a chance to have some potential. I haven&#8217;t seen the whole thing yet. They haven&#8217;t locked it yet. <a href=\"http:\/\/us.imdb.com\/title\/tt1146918\/\"><em>Dirty Politics<\/em><\/a>, I haven&#8217;t seen that one either. I just finished my looping on that, so it&#8217;ll be interesting to see how those films turn out. They should be out pretty soon. I just got through doing <em>Desperate Housewives<\/em>. That was fun. It was [their] <a href=\"\/blog\/?p=2626\">100th episode<\/a>. That was fantastic. I really enjoyed that so much, because I know most of those ladies and they&#8217;re so talented. (Creator) Marc Cherry wrote a really great script, so it was fun.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Movie Web:<\/strong> Will you be returning to <em>My Name Is Earl <\/em>as well??<\/p>\n<p><strong>Beau Bridges<\/strong>: I&#8217;d like to. I don&#8217;t know how many more seasons <em>Earl<\/em>&#8216;s going to be going. It&#8217;s been awhile since I&#8217;ve been on that show because, maybe one of the reasons why is the lady who plays my wife, Nancy Lenehan, she&#8217;s in a series called <em>Worst Week<\/em>, so she&#8217;s kind of tied up in that. But I&#8217;d love to go on <em>Earl<\/em>. I&#8217;ve done a bunch of those now and they&#8217;re always fun.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Bridges concluded the interview with a thumbs-up rating for the movie, &#8220;I just think that it&#8217;s a good ride. All the action, which is at the heart of the video game, is very much there. I think it&#8217;s a wild ride and I think Mark Wahlberg won&#8217;t disappoint them as Max Payne. He&#8217;s an exciting actor to watch, both in psychological scenes and in the action, so I would recommend it to anyone.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>To read the complete interview, visit <a href=\"http:\/\/www.movieweb.com\/news\/NE3C1b46z21f53\">MovieWeb.com: EXCLUSIVE: Beau Bridges Steps Into the Dark with <em>Max Payne<\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Stargate star Beau Bridges did an exclusive interview recently with MovieWeb.com concerning the DVD release of Max Payne on January 20.
