Chris Corry, executive producer at EALA had this to say:
“This is by far the most exciting cast we have in over 13 years of shooting live-action movies for Command & Conquer. The caliber of the performances we received, both individually and collectively, have really raised the storytelling bar for the franchise.  We are really excited that we will be delivering such a high quality production that is on par with movies and television shows.”

Jenny McCarthy who plays Tanya, Speaking from the set of Command & Conquer Red Alert 3 said:
“I wasn’t sure what to expect when I came in to work on a video game. What I realized is Red Alert 3 is not just a video game, it’s absolutely an interactive movie.  This is where the people at home get to move the story forward, and where seeing the plot thicken is a reward for a job well done.  And that’s really cool.”

We spoke to Gemma Atkinson at the M Festival and this is what she had to say:
" [I Play] Lieutenant Eva McKenna, she's got a bit of a crush on her commander (You). She has a rival as well (Tanya), which is quite fun because she also fancies the commander. It was my first time in LA, I really enjoyed it. They had a command centre set up with a green screen. [Filming] took about 16 hours, but we did the whole thing in one day"
