Arts Express: Actor John Cho Talks Exorcist, Star Trek Beyond, Korea
** "I wonder whether the idea of exorcism is fascinating because we as a species see others doing terrible things and we say to ourselves, well it couldn't be me, could it - mustn't it be a demon that makes human beings awful to one another?"
John Cho Talks Exorcist, Star Trek, Korea: The actor, who stars in the latest Exorcist incarnation on television, is on the line to Arts Express to reflect on why this horror tale has endured across two centuries. South Korean born Cho also speculates about sitting down at an imaginary negotiating table with the DPRK, to solve the world situation.
