Ryan, Raj

Farscape Characters

Hotelier: The Choice

Credits

Television: McLeod's Daughters; Tanya and Floyd; All Saints; Dogwoman; Sea Change; Murder Call; Big Sky

Theater: The Fertility of Objects; The Venetian Twins; Black Mary; As You Like It; Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead

Film:  The Extra; Son of the Mask; Swimming Upstream; 

Other: From an interview regarding the movie The Extra: 

Raj describes his character, Simon Jones as ‘"a taxi driver who loves films. He’s found this great opportunity to be an extra and he’s just revelling in it. He probably does want to be a more serious actor but he’s actually quite happy revelling in just being involved in movie world. That’s his buzz."

As for the name, Simon Jones, Raj, Kevin Carlin and Jimeoin decided that Simon comes from Simon Templer of The Saint and Jones from Tom Jones, because he thinks of himself as a bit of a ‘"rock star".

Graduating from NIDA in 1989, Raj has worked extensively in theatre as well as television, including roles in McLeod’s Daughters, Farscape 3, Dogwoman, Seachange and All Saints. None of which prepared him for the days filming when Raj, Jimeon and Colin Lane dressed as a lemon, a banana and a tomato, spent the day at the Victoria markets. "I was in a tomato suit all day – lycra tights, the tomato coming to above my hips, it was so ridiculous. And it was pretty embarrassing for the first hour and then you sort of forget that you’re in this suit and you actually walk around quite seriously. And Rhys Muldoon came to look at us and said "boys, boys, remember, above all, dignity. Always dignity."

Accents have always come easily for Raj (his mother is Irish and his father Indian) and in the films vision for an "every-world, non-specific country" of The Extra, a westernised Indian accent for the character was appropriate. But when Kevin Carlin rang to tell Raj that he had the part "I got onto his local garage attendant because Raj had left his mobile phone there. So I thought, for a moment, the accent had changed dramatically."

In what Raj describes as "a good yarn", The Extra gave him his first opportunity to work with Jimeoin, ‘so when I got the script I thought, jeez, this would be a great thing to do. Cause I have honestly been a fan of Jimeoin for a long time as a comedian. Jimeoin fans are going to love it because he’s on screen a lot and he’s doing stuff that I don’t think he really does in his live act. His characters’ a lot more vulnerable, a lot more sensitive, and I think this is a good chance for his fans to see another side of Jim."

As for the extras themselves? Raj thinks, "it’s not about being a nobody but it is about being an accessory rather than a fashion item."
