Hi Aiden, I am very happy to do this interview.
 
Could you introduce yourself to the visitors of cinema-movietheater.com?

Hello everyone, my name is Aiden Stoxx.
I am a 14 year old actor based in Vancouver British Columbia.
I started acting at the age of seven and I enjoy it very much.
I am the youngest of four older brothers and my best friend‘s name is stormi She is my four month old Jack Russell terrier.. 
 

What do you like when you read the script?
I was excited to do the role when I read the script. The first thing that caught my attention was the character had the same name as me, Aiden. I was also excited to meet the dog that would be playing Barkley.
I love pets. I love acting with pets because I am a pet owner and lover in Yellowjackets.
I have a dog also it’s always fun to be on site with pets during the breaks we play fetch And share good times.
This was the first time I was tied up in a show and had to scream for help through duct tape. It was a lot of fun and NATASHA made it easy. 

And what did you think when you discovered your character Aiden Westin (S02 E07)? 
I thought of the characters lifestyle, his daily routine and circumstances. He lived with his mom alone and he had the responsibility of taking care of a dog like I do.
Although I live with both my parents I understood his fear in the scene with the intruder that tied him and his mom up.
That was the first time I performed in a scene that was so infused with fear and trauma.
I enjoyed playing Aiden Westin because I was able to grow as an actor and put myself in scenarios that I had not experienced as an actor.

Can you tell us how you got your role?
I was offered the role through my Agent Debbie Mahood , she handles all my acting gigs First step is to audition  I auditioned for the role of Aiden Westin.
The directors and produces pull actors they are interested in from the casting database, I was one of the many that were selected.
I got the lines and prepared for the auction which I usually read at a local studio. The auction is submitted to casting and if they like it your get a call back or you are offered the role. I was offered the role and the rest is history.
I was excited to play Aiden and meet the entire cast and crew of Tracker..

How did you prepare for your role?
I usually prepare for all my roles the same, after I receive the script I read it a few times to understand the story and the energy of the character.
I make notes on the script so that I understand the scenes and how I relate to the cast members and the story that Is being told.
I write down the details bout my character and the storyline as I see it through the writers eyes.
Once I am confinement with how I will portray the chapter.
I memorize the lines and stage direction, I visualize myself in each scene so that I can be prepared on the day, sometimes I get an acting coach that is older and more experienced to go over my notes so that I have looked at each scene form all angles.
This helps my delivery to be authentic to the character and the scene.

How was the shooting with Justin Hartley, Natasha Burnett, the dog..........and the director Ben Hernandez Bray?

Justin is very funny and a a lot of fun to work with, he is very tall so it hurts my neck to look up at him sometimes lol. In-between takes he would always have us laughing.
Although he’s very professional he made the experience fun, we got the job done but he made it really easy.
Natasha was so cool and funny, we got to know each other really well and built a friendship for life.
Ben was a cool director that was very focused, he gave good direction, The dog  was fun although I didn’t get to spend much time with him because he was not behaving or following commands so his trainer kept him close to her during breaks, they actually had 2 of the same dogs to do the scene but they both were not cooperating lol.
It was funny to see the dog get instructions and do the complete opposite.
I have worked with dogs on Yellojackets and their trainner handles the dogs well and they listen I guess it depends a lot on the trainer and their relationship with the dog.

Do you watch yourself, during the TV broadcast?
I watched the show during the broadcast with my family, we like to see the end results of hardworking and a lot of fun. Im proud of my work on tracker because I grew as an actor by doing things that I have never done before. Like screaming from an intruder or being tied up with duck tape,

When and why did you choose to become an actor?
I became an actor 7 years ago because I loved dancing and performing for my parents.
My mom owns a vintage store and I started doing social media post and commercials for her.
My mom noticed how much I liked doing it so she searched top 10 agents in Vancouver we met with Debbie and I booked my first 3 auditions and I kept going after that.
My goal is to become the next black super hero like Black Panther. I appreciate the work of actors like Chadwick Boseman, Denzel Washington.

What is your next challenge / project?

 I just filmed a movie in Budapest with John Cena and Jessica Beal called Matchbox and I prepping for the final season of Yellowjackets. My next challenge is Theatre and Improv, I am currently taking classes so that I can we a well rounded performer and actor.
