Mark Ferguson was on the Good Morning show last week talking about the scale of the filming. Mark said he’s playing Gil Galad, he also said his scenes were filmed on the Ruapehu location.

Mark has acted in such shows as ‘Xena’ ‘Hercules’ and ‘Shortland Street’ like most NZ actors (that show must employ more people than MacDonalds). More info on our cast page as soon as we update.
