Fantasy Island Cast Interview: Lucy Hale, Michael Pena, Austin Stowell and More

There’s no better way to celebrate Valentine’s Day than with a new horror thriller! (At least in my opinion.) This weekend, Sony and Blumhouse have you covered in the “make you so scared you hold on to your significant other for dear life” department with their new spin on the Gene Levitt TV series, Fantasy Island.
In this new version directed by Jeff Wadlow, Michael Peña fills the role of the mysterious Mr. Roarke played by Ricardo Montalbán in the original series. The character welcomes a group of guests to his remote resort where he promises to make their fantasies a reality. While this might sound like the place to wish to “have it all,” the guests quickly find out that those seemingly fool-proof, harmless dreams could quickly devolve into deadly nightmares,
With Fantasy Island making its way into theaters on February 14th, Peña and co-stars Portia Doubleday, Lucy Hale, Austin Stowell, Jimmy O. Yang and Ryan Hansen all swung by the Collider Studio to talk about the movie. They each give us the 101 on their characters but just wait until you hit the point in the conversation when they start talking about filming in Fiji, not having bathrooms in the jungle and the time when one of them got bit by a bat. (Yes, really.) You can hear about all of that and everyone’s fantasy movie role in this video interview.

Austin’s speech was so amazing

[@S24ARJ]

In recent interviews for The Hating Game, Austin Stowell says he first met Lucy Hale on the plane to Fuji and has known her a while. I'm guessing he means for this film, Fantasy Island. But when was it actually filmed; what year?
Knowing someone 2-3 years isn't really a long time... so I'm just putting it out there that these two (AS + LH) could become a thing in real life. Maybe... or maybe not?

I liked the movie, although it has not been released in Mexico. I watched it on DVD, but I expect to watch it on the big screen, once theaters open up again.
