On Fire actor and co-director Peter Facinelli has recently discussed working with Lance Henriksen and believes the iconic actor is a legend.In an interview with ComicBook, Facinelli revealed his admiration for the eighty-three-year-old actor and what Henriksen’s process entailed while they were shooting the movie: “I mean, he’s worked on so many (Films), and he’s just such a legend.”Henriksen (Alien Franchise, Millennium) plays the Facinelli’s father in On Fire. When he first encountered the veteran actor during filming, he attributed Henriksen’s demeanor on set, which seemed scatterbrained and unfocused, to his age advancement. Facinelli, by his own admission, was wrong. “With Lance, it’s funny because I remember meeting him, and his character is kind of…not senile, but he’ll go off on tangents. He’s talking about something, and suddenly, he goes off on a tangent. And so when I met him, he was doing that, and I thought, ‘Ah, poor Lance. He’s getting up there. Perfect for this character,'” he said. “And then when I met him after the movie, he was such a spring chicken and sharp as a tack, and I was like, ‘Oh, I see what he was doing. He’s carrying the part over,’ which is genius because he came in for five or six days and got all his stuff done in a week,” the director revealed.RELATED: Twister Director Explains Why the Disaster Movie Can’t Be Remade
