Demore Barnes

Demore: (on moving to the States for better acting opportunities) It was hard getting started because I was greatly established in Canada and that was a little bit of a shock and coming here and everyone's like, 'Who's Demore?'. And they're like, 'No, well, we're not sure because we have our choices, blah, blah, blah, but we'll see about that.' I think some of those people now know who I am.

Demore: (on his career when finishing work on The Unit) I've run a good distance in television and I'm certainly going to be looking to parlay and springboard from The Unit to the big screen. I hope I have a career that is raw, and impacting and all-encompassing in the many areas and facets of the industry. I want to do it all, I want to be one of the forces to be reckoned with, one of these days.

Demore: (on his most memorable moment from filming The Unit) The first thing that comes to mind is actually a memory from last season. It's memorable, but it's not necessarily pleasant. It was at the beginning of last season and I was filming an action scene with Max Martini and Dennis Haysbert. There was a lot of gunfire and Dennis and I had retreated to an arched doorway and he was probably about six feet behind me, two or three feet higher than myself. We were firing away and I actually found myself blacking out and I didn't know what was going on. I realized that a shell casing had ricocheted off of the arched doorway from Dennis's gun and hit me in the back of the head. It sent me reeling back into Dennis, I was just in the scene and in the moment of trying to retreat from the gunfire. Needless to say I was fine and it ended up not being a big deal. I got patched up and actually had to do two more takes of the same thing.
