Noah's Arc: February 2007 Archives

When actor Darryl Stephens and I chatted earlier this week, I mentioned that I had seen him in a small role on ABC's breakout hit "Ugly Betty" awhile back. It was one of those blink-and-you-might-miss-him appearances and nothing like his role on Logo's "Noah's Arc" where he is the title character.
But even having a small role on a network TV show had its perks: "I love 'Ugly Betty,' I love that show. It was great to be on that set, it was a great experience. It was also interesting to be a day player and have a trailer four times the size of mine on 'Noah's!'"
Stephens is one of the leads in "Boy Culture," out next month, will star in a "Noah's Arc" feature film, and had a fun part in the comedy "Another Gay Movie" last fall.

Was interviewed Darryl Stephens this morning for a freelance piece on his upcoming movie "Boy Culture" but wanted to ask him some "Noah's Arc" related questions for the readers of "Out In Hollywood."
The actor, who plays the title role in the popular LOGO drama, is looking forward to getting started on it but could offer any plot points: “it's been announced and we're all working on deals now. I have no idea where the story is going to go. They are picking up where the second season left off. The network is very excited about it. I'm honestly excited to see how they tell the story in the structure of a feature film.”
It will be Logo's first big-screen effort and is set for release in 2008. Currently in development, the film will leave the door open for sequels, additional television seasons and specials.
“I don't know how to anticipate the response," Stephens says. "At this point, hopefully it will be a treat for the fans. There will be enough new stuff and new characters and enough exciting situations taking place that fans will really be able to sink their teeth into."
"Noah’s Arc" premiered on Logo in October 2005, just months after the launch of the network and season two premiered in August 2006. The show follows the lives and loves of four African-American gay men looking for love and signs of intelligent life in Los Angeles: Noah (Darryl Stephens), Chance (Doug Spearman), Alex (Rodney Chester) and Ricky (Christian Vincent). Jensen Atwood plays Wade, Noah's on-again, off-again boyfriend.
