Rue Morgue recently caught up with Ray Wise to talk about his small but memorable role as the legendary sorcerer Merlin in Richard Bates Jr.'s (Tone, Deaf, Excision) fantasy-satire KING KNIGHT. As always, he was full of surprises.
We sit down with horror's grande dame to discuss parenthood, finding truth in comedy, and staying connected while far away.
Richard Bates Jr.'s horror comedy hits theaters and streaming on February 17th.
It is perhaps Bates’ most accessible film yet, while still fully in keeping with his unique, oddball view of the world.
Also starring Angela Sarafyan, Andy Milonakis, and Barbara Crampton, KING KNIGHT will have its world premiere at Fantasia Film Festival August 8, 2021.
