Doug Jones Reflects On The “Legacy of Love” Behind ‘Operation Taco Gary’s’

Operation Taco Gary's - Chroma

Operation Taco Gary’s is an outright ridiculous comedy filled with machine gun dialogue and outlandish situations. That said, there is a beating heart to director/writer Mikey K’s feature. Doug Jones, who plays an alien in the movie, talked to Deepest Dream about what makes Operation Taco Gary’s a unique story.

Operation Taco Gary’s – Chroma

Luke (Dustin Milligan) thinks he is off on a new chapter in his life with an impending job. Things get haywire when his conspiracy theory loving brother Danny (Simon Rex) reenters his life. The movie also stars Jason Biggs (playing an evil version of himself!), Tony Cavalero, Brenda Song, and Arturo Castro.

Operation Taco Gary’s is filled with such zaniness and chaos that a second viewing may be in order. There is even an apocalyptic flavor to the proceedings, which Doug Jones addressed.

“Even with their disagreements, the (brothers) have each other,” said Jones. “It does make one think, if the we were facing the apocalypse, what would be important to us at that time. I think that’s what this movie brought up for me as I read it. What’s important to me is family and frends who are like family, and leaving behind a legacy of love.”

During the end of the chat, Jones also talked about why The Shape of Water, which won the Best Picture Oscar, might be an under appreciated film. Check out our full interview with Doug Jones:

Sade Louise and Avianna Mynhier at "Armorsaurs" press day.

Now streaming on Disney+, Armorsaurs centers on a team of teen pilots who, along with their armored dinosaurs, are the only hopes against fighting an alien race bent on destroying Earth. Actresses Sade Louise (“Prisca”) and Avianna Mynhier (“Paloma”) talked to Deepest Dream at the Armorsaurs press junket at MGA Entertainment. Working on a virtual production in South Korea took a ton of imagination, and according to Mynhier it was a “beautiful challenge.”

Sade Louise in “Armorsaurs” – MGA Entertainment

“It’s actually my first time in Los Angeles,” said Sade Louise. “I actually live in South Korea. I feel like being here with the cast again – my sister (she looks over to Avianna Mynhier)! I’m still processing and taking in all this energy and love for the show. I’m really excited to see what people think (of Armorsaurs) when it’s out on Disney+.”

For Mynhier, working on a youth centric series was a blessing. “I acted on The Walking Dead and Blue Ridge so it’s all drama,” said the actress. “So this was a gift. I love toys. It’s an entirely different universe but it still has the same thing that I am drawn to as an actress. Which is a female character driving her own destiny. She is in charge of her decisions and she’s powerful (and) capable. When I saw the (Armorsaurs) script, it’s the same draw, but a whole different demographic. I’m really excited to be around kids and make entertainment for kids.”

I asked them about what does it take to make it as an actress in show business. “There’s a lot of roles you don’t get,” said Mynhier, who said that having ‘grit’ is a good trait to have. “Once in a while,we get the luxury of working on amazing projects like (Armorsaurs). But the resilience to stick it out is something that really strikes me.”

“It was a new experience for me to work on a virtual production,” added Louise. “Kind of tying in with that grit, it was very much of a ‘I’m going to leap with both my feet.’I had the support of the people around me to help me progress as an actress.”
