As we travel across the country, hitting up music festival after music festival, tour after tour, we all set our DVRs to “RECORD”, and the #1 show on our list on Sunday 10/2 is Ash vs Evil Dead. The second season is going to explore with Ash returning to his hometown of Elk Grove, Michigan to confront Ruby – and things are gonna get weird, strange, and deadite-filled, just the way we like it!!! Hell, we live for this!
Bruce Campbell (Evil Dead, “Burn Notice”) reprises the role of Ash Williams; Lucy Lawless (“Salem,” “Spartacus”) returns as Ruby Knowby, who now possesses the powerful Necronomicon; Ray Santiago (“Touch,” Meet the Fockers) is Pablo Simon Bolivar, Ash’s loyal sidekick; and Dana DeLorenzo (A Very Harold & Kumar 3D Christmas) is Kelly Maxwell, who plots revenge against The Evil Dead. Lee Majors (Do You Believe), Ted Raimi (“Xena: Warrior Princess,” Spider-Man) and Michelle Hurd (“Law & Order: SVU”) will be joining the cast this season, and we are rapturous to get our binge watching on as soon as possible!
RockRevolt had the amazing opportunity to chat up Ray Santiago and Dana DeLorenzo. Sit back, relax, and take a listen to some interesting conversations had with one of the hottest shows this fall!
PABLO SIMON BOLIVAR (RAY SANTIAGO)
Pablo is Ash’s loyal sidekick struggling to seal with the trauma suffered in the cabin. He recognizes that fate has put Ash in the center of a battle of good vs. evil. Pablo feels that his destiny is to fight alongside Ash. Originally trained to follow in his uncle’s footsteps to become a Brujo, a Honduran shaman, Pablo has left his legacy behind to pursue the American Dream. Pablo is the only one who believes in Ash even when Ash doubts himself.

KELLY MAXWELL (DANA DELORENZO)
Kelly was always rebellious but has become hardened and cynical by the cards life has dealt her. Now she only desires payback for what the Deadites have done to those close to her. Unwilling to let go of her rage she won’t let others get too close. With her family destroyed, she turns to Ash and Pablo, the only ones who have ever stood by her. She will not stop until the last evil Deadite is destroyed.
