Shockya (SY): You have starred in a variety of genres, including action movies and short films. So what persuaded you to take the role of Amber in the upcoming horror movie ‘Prowl?’
Courtney Hope (CH): The role of Amber in the horror movie ‘Prowl’ was something new and different, unlike than anything I had done prior. I am always up for trying new things, stretching my acting ability and finding new niches. I really thought it would be a fun change to do something out of the realm of what I am used too.
SY: ‘Prowl’ follows your character, Amber, as she convinces her friends to move to the big city with her. While on their journey, the truck driver who picks them up takes them back to a warehouse where blood-thirsty creatures want to hunt them. Does Amber exhibit or feel any remorse or guilt for getting her friends into such a dire situation?

Does Amber exhibit or feel any remorse or guilt for getting her friends into such a dire situation?
CH: Absolutely. Amber feels very guilty for getting her friends in such an intense, life-threatening situation. She knows that she is the reason they are all there in the first place, and admits at one point that it really is all her fault. She cares so much for her friends that she finally has to buck up, and take responsibility for her actions and find a way out, otherwise no one is going to make it out alive.
