Exclusive Interview: Tom Sizemore Talks 'Company of Heroes'

In the midst of filming for the movie 'Company of Heroes' in Bulgaria, I was eager to sit down with Tom Sizemore and talk about his latest project. As an actor who has been in the industry for over three decades, it's no surprise that he brings a wealth of experience and knowledge to every role.

When asked if he did any research to prepare for this character, Sizemore shared, 'I played the game 'Company of Heroes' a couple of times. With a project like this, that has historical elements and is based on a video game, I wanted to get a sense of what it was all about.'

In our conversation, we touched on the extreme conditions in Bulgaria where filming took place. Sizemore noted that he was surprised by his ability to pull off the action scenes, saying, 'I think it's because we had such a great team behind us and we were all working together towards a common goal.' He also spoke about the diverse cast he worked with, including Chad Collins, Vinnie Jones, and Neal McDonough.

But Sizemore wasn't afraid to get real, either. We discussed his journey to sobriety, which began in May 2009. It's clear that this actor is dedicated not only to his craft but also to personal growth and well-being.

In 'Company of Heroes,' Sizemore portrays Dean Ranson, a soldier on a perilous mission to stop Adolf Hitler from building an atomic weapon during World War II's infamous Battle of the Bulge. The film seamlessly blends historical elements with fiction, creating a unique and captivating story.

With more than 20 films either in production or waiting for release, Sizemore hasn't slowed down since his breakout roles in the late 1980s and early 1990s. From 'Lock Up' to 'Born on the 4th of July,' he's been a staple in Hollywood, with memorable performances in films like 'Passenger 57,' 'Wyatt Earp,' 'Heat,' 'Natural Born Killers,' and 'Saving Private Ryan.'

As we wrapped up our conversation, it was clear that Tom Sizemore is still as passionate about his work as ever. With the release of 'Company of Heroes' on Blu-ray and DVD February 26th, fans will have the opportunity to see him in a new light.
