| How old is Roy and when is
his birthday? |
| Roy was born on April 21st 1963. |
| Is he married? |
| No. He does not believe in the
institution of marriage. |
| Does he have a girlfriend? |
| Yes. |
| Who is she? |
| Actress Céline Bonnier.
They met on the set of Million Dollar
Babies in 1994, and have been together since then. (We also have
a small
site dedicated to her and her work.) |
| Does
he have children? |
| No. |
| Where does he live? |
| In a farmhouse, some way out of
Montreal. He is unlikely ever to move to Hollywood! |
| Does Roy visit this
website? |
| He might do, but he's never told us, so we
can't say for sure. |
| Are you in contact with Roy? |
| No we're not. |
| Where do I write to Roy? |
| See the Contacts page for
contact information through his agency. |
| Will I get a reply? |
| We have no involvement in this and therefore we can't say
for sure. Some people we know have had responses from the agency address, some of which
have taken a long time to arrive and some people have had no response. Our advice is just
to be patient. We're sure he gets tons of mail and it may take a while for his agent's
office to get round to some of the requests. |
| Can you send me his
autograph? |
| No - sorry but we have no personal contact with Roy or his
agents. You need to contact them with that request. Go to the
Contacts page for his agents mailing
address. Or see 'Is there a fan club?' below. |
| Do you have his email
address? |
| No we don't. You could try the
agency's address. |
| Does he post on the
message board? |
| No. |
| Is there a fan club? |
No there isn't. However, Roy does
regularly meet with fans from around the world, at gatherings held
for charitable causes. For details of forthcoming events,
please check the message
board. You will find several personal accounts of past meetings
with Roy in the 'In Person'
section of the site.
These charitable causes also hold online auctions where you can bid
for items, usually autographed and sometimes personalised to the
winner. Again, you can check the message board for details of
these auctions. |
| Is there an official
fan site? |
| No, there isn't. - but we
(modestly!) reckon that RDO
is the next best thing! |
| I live
in (insert country, state, town of choice!) and it's really hard to
get copies of Roy's films - where can I buy them? |
| Most of Roy's
films have limited exposure outside Quebec. However, things
have become very much easier than in the past, now that DVDs are
routinely released. For all films still available,
Amazon.ca is a good bet.
Once they get sold out, you can often pick up Roy's films on
ebay. |
| I
don't speak French!!!!! |
| Frankly, even if
you did, you could have problems with some of the films that have
strong Quebecois accents. Again, the advent of DVDs has made
English subtitles far more common. They're OK when you get the
hang of them - learn to love them. Infinitely better than having
Roy's voice dubbed by someone else, don't you think? |
|
I'm a Nikita
fan, and now I want to see more of Roy in his other work, but I have
a limited budget. Which films/TV series should I start with? |
| When people used
to ask this question during the original 'Nikita years' (1997 -
2001) there was a limited body of historical work, from which the
'must-sees' could easily be identified. Now that Roy is
churning out 3 or 4 films a year, it's a lot more difficult to
prioritise. There are film reviews on the main site, and a Film
Review forum on the message board. The
RDO
message board members (the Homagers) will be pleased to
advise. |
|
Is Roy really going
to be on '24'? / Is there going
to be a 'Nikita' movie? |
| These have been
favourite questions for years. The answer, as ever, is 'not so
far'. But if either of these projects ever happens,
RDO
will be on top of it! |
| What are his next projects? |
| This is something that can change daily! The best place to find the
most up to date information is the
message board here you
can find running threads with the latest news and also ask questions on
the latest projects. Roy reckons that sometimes we know things
before he does! |
