He’s Brainiac (Smallville). He’s Barnabas Greeley (Caprica). James Marsters is pure evil on screen. In this interview, we discuss Marsters’ cult fame in delivering time-tested villainy on TV.
“Villains are really fun,” Marsters jokes, while instilling enough fear to make even Sinestro from Green Lantern a little jealous. “Playing heroes is really, really hard. You have to feel guilty. You have to run a lot. You have to get beat up and fall down a lot.” Feeling guilty is hard? You just have to laugh because Marsters cool and fun-loving exterior may hide a shadowy villain waiting to bust loose. Thankfully, he found his outlet on camera instead of the real world. Marsters continues, “When you play the villain you just lurk.”
