'Premonition' Isn't All Doom For Julian McMahon
'Nip/Tuck' Star Fascinated By Premise Of Thriller
Deep Thoughts
Thankfully, McMahon said that he hasn't had one close to him come up to notify him of his impending death. But while "Premonition" posed to him a special sort of insight into facing the dilemma, the actor remains unsure what he'd actually do in real life."It's a tough question -- I don't know how I'd react, even if it's someone I know and trust," McMahon wondered aloud. "If it were the circumstances of the movie -- where Sandra's character was being so weird and bizarre and their relationship was in such turmoil -- I can't imagine but doing what Jim did. I'd have to say things like, 'What do you want me to do? Do you want me to stay here? Is that going to stop the situation? Should I put myself in a bunker and stay there for six months? Do I not go to work?'"It's a difficult and complex situation," McMahon added. "You just don't know, even near the end, whether she is paranoid or even crazy. I wouldn't have trusted her under the circumstances."On the flip side, McMahon said that he hasn't had premonitions -- although he's had instances in his life that may imply as much."I've had thoughts about things, like thinking about somebody and the phone rings and it's them -- or an imagination of things might go at a certain time and goes exactly that way," McMahon said. "But nothing enormous like the movie.""Premonition" is also fascinating in that it forces you to question how our lives really unfold. Are you one who believes people's paths destined -- or can those paths be controlled by one's own free will?McMahon thinks it's a little bit of both."I think it's laid out in some abstract kind of way, and it's all about the choices that you make," McMahon said. "Then you come to these crossroads in your life, and you make a choice to take one road or make a choice to take the other. That will send you on a different path, but in a way I feel that that's almost planned. That's why I think it's a bit of a combination."While McMahon may or may not be doomed in "Premonition," fans of his villainous Dr. Doom will take comfort in the fact that the character will be back in full swing in the upcoming "Fantastic Four" sequel, "Rise of the Silver Surfer.""Dr. Doom is all about destroying the planet and destroying the Fantastic Four," McMahon said. "It's going to be great fun."Copyright 2008, Internet Broadcasting. This material may not be published, broadcast, rewritten or redistributed.
