We chat with GremlinsSecretsoftheMogwai stars Izaac Wang, AJ LoCasio, and Gabrielle Nevaeh about their roles as Sam Wing, Gizmo, and Elle in the upcoming Gremlins prequel, which premieres May 23 on hbomax
Gremlins: Secrets of the Mogwai is a welcome return to the world of Gremlins nearly forty years after the 1984 premiere of the first film. The animated Max series tells the story of a young Sam Wing as he first meets the adorable Gizmo and is set in 1920s China. Despite the gap in time between the original films and now, Gremlins: Secrets of the Mogwai captures the unique tone of the original in part thanks to executive producers Steven Spielberg and original film director Joe Dante.
And Gabrielle, your character is very cool and very tough, and maybe is that way because she hasn't had it so easy. What was your favorite thing about her to explore and get into? AJ LoCasio: Well, thank you first of all, Oh, boy. I mean, it's the same as we do as people. There's such a range of emotions he goes through; it's just finding the right emotes as we go through each scene. Basically, he doesn't speak English per se, or human vernacular, but we have a sanded-down version of English that he does. It's kind of like a Mogwai [version], where you take sort of the general feeling. Everything's human analogous, but filtered through Mogwai.
Gabrielle Nevaeh: You know what? It's hilarious because I think Izaac and I actually only worked together maybe twice, or three times. That's just how the world of voiceover works sometimes, especially with COVID. We got a good amount of episodes in before the pandemic hit, but we did an entire run from the comfort of our homes. I met AJ at Comic-Con. We had some time to hang out there, but it's hilarious to kind of get the interaction face-to-face when the project is done.
