June 09, 2022 Evan Evagora on The Quarry, horror, games and Elnor's fate in Picard
Evan Evagora is a Melburnian actor who has recently graced our television screens as Elnor in Paramount's Star Trek Picard. He's set to return to TV screens -- and PC monitors -- today as part of The Quarry's massive roster of talent, starring alongside a giant list of up-and-comers and icons alike.
To celebrate his role in Supermassive's latest horror tale, the actor kindly agreed to sit down with Stevivor to talk about The Quarry, horror, the acting process and his own take on what happens to Elnor post season two of Star Trek Picard. (So spoilers for that, obiously, though we don't ruin a single thing with The Quarry.)
