   BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER: Actor Camden Toy chats about Joss Whedon’s classic   
   series – Exclusive Interview – Part 1   
   The actor talks his iconic role as a terrifying Gentleman   
      
   Camden Toy played three of Buffy’s most iconic nemeses, and then went over   
   to the BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER spinoff ANGEL to play yet another monster.   
   On BUFFY, along with Doug Jones, Toy was one of the silent, ever-smiling   
   Gentlemen who stole people’s voices and then cut out their hearts in the   
   memorable Season 4 episode “Hush.”   
      
   In Season 7, Toy played the skin-eating, sing-song-taunting Gnarl, and then   
   the first of the menacing Ubervamps. Then he was brought over to bedevil   
   ANGEL’s eponymous hero (David Boreanaz) as the ancient vampire the Prince of   
   Lies [the one Wesley killed in the finale ep].   
      
   Toy, along with a host of other veterans from Whedon-created series,   
   including BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER, ANGEL, FIREFLY and DOLLHOUSE, will be a   
   guest at this year’s WhedonCon, taking place the weekend of May 19-21 at the   
   Warner Center Marriott Hotel in Woodland Hills, California.   
      
   Fellow guests include  David Fury, Tim Minear, Nicholas Brendon, James Leary   
   (Clem), Robia LaMorte (Jenny Calendar) Andrew Ferchland (the Anointed One),   
   and more. For more information on WhedonCon, go to WhedonCon.com.   
      
   In Part 1 of a phone interview with Toy, he talks about his start in the   
   Whedon-verse.   
      
   ASSIGNMENT X: How did you get cast as a Gentleman?   
      
   CAMDEN TOY: Doug and I are often asked that, and we both have similar   
   answers. It was pretty much through what we think of as the normal channels   
   in Hollywood, which is a show or a film puts out a casting notice, agents   
   see it, or managers see it, and they then submit their clients for that   
   project. The casting people then pick who they want to see. So we got picked   
   to come in and audition for it. The call I got from my agent was, “Hi. BUFFY   
   THE VAMPIRE SLAYER wants to see you tonight at six o’clock.” And that’s   
   unusual, as you probably know. Film and television generally give you at   
   least a day, maybe two [laughs]. They were like, “It’s tonight,” and I   
   asked, “What about a script?” “There’s no script, just go.” So   
   that’s how   
   that happened.
