TV Show


Here is Information on the upcoming TV show.
Sorry about Rachel's head, I couldn't quite get it.

"Morphing Around", in the Ooze News section of Nickelodeon Magazine

Christopher Ralph: Tobias
Morphs into: hawk
On acting: "I've done a lot of theater, but this is my first time in front of the camera. I was terrified at my audition." On bringing the book series to television: "We all want fans to watch the show and say, 'Wow! This is just how I pictured it...and more!'"
Boris Cabrera: Marco
Morphs into: wolf, lizard, python, rat, cockroach, butterfly
Funniest Animal Moment: "We were filming a scene in which a horse comes up behind Brooke [Nevin] and nudges her in the back. But the horse nudged her so hard, she went flying into Christopher [Ralph]'s arms.
On science fiction: "It's cool. I'm into The X-files and X-men comics."
Nadia Nascimento: Cassie
Morphs into: horse, skunk, rabbit, crocodile, butterfly, cockroach
Favorite Animorphs animal: "Bongo, the lion. Once, when he was sleeping in his cage, I lay down about a foot away, to see what it would be like to lie in the middle of the jungle with a lion. It's like lying next to your cat, except he's really big."
Brooke Nevin: Rachel
Morphs into: lion, fly, cat, cockroach, butterfly
Funniest animal moment: "In one scene I had to make a hawk jump onto my arm. To entice it, I had to hold out a chikcen leg. Then I watched as it ate the chicken leg right there on my arm, which grossed me out a little bit."
Animal she'd like to morph into: "A bird of prey, such as a hawk. An animal that could soar."
Shawn Ashmore: Jake
Morphs into: tiger, lizard, dog, butterfly, cockroach
Scariest animal moment: "I had to pet a white tiger, and
Micheal Hackenberger [the animal trainer] told me exactly what I could and couldn't do, such as 'Don't move your hand away quickly' and 'Don't run away, because it'll think you're prey and come after you.' So I started petting the tiger, and somehow it jerked it's head, and my fingers went up it's nose. I thought, 'If this isn't the time to move my hand away, I don't know what is!' But I also thought, 'If I move my hand away, the tiger will probably bite me,' so I stood there in shock."
What happened next: "I kept on petting until I heard Micheal say, 'Back away, back away,' which is what I did. It was kind of cool and funny, but at the time I was pretty scared."
