“It’s a crucial episode for Theo’s character,” said Eddie Ramos of Incorporated‘s fourth episode titled, “Cost Containment.”

In the new dystopian series from Syfy, Ramos portrays Theo, a tough, fiery young man who lives in the Red Zone, making a living as a cage fighter. OMFGTV was recently able to speak with Ramos, who teased some details about tonight’s all-new installment.

“[Theo] is definitely going to have to make some very serious and critical decisions moving forward in the season,” Ramos told us. “I don’t think he realized what he was getting himself into by enlisting with and working alongside Terrence (Ian Tracey).”

“Theo finds out what he’s capable of,” as Terrence leaves him with a very difficult decision to make. “It’s a really exciting episode, and definitely a tearjerker, for sure,” Ramos finished.

On what attracted him to the role of Theo, Ramos shared, “He’s got such a hustler’s mindset, he’s willing to do what he has to do to keep moving forward. He never quits; he doesn’t give up. I think those were the qualities that really led me to and attracted me to Theo’s character.”

“He has such a cool attitude about life in the Red Zone,” Ramos continued, “but he knows what he has to do to make it out, at the same time. And he holds his own really well in the Red Zone. He’s been surviving for this long, which is really, really impressive. As the actor, Eddie, I live in Los Angeles without my family, and there’s just a crazy similarity between myself and Theo. He’s got this kind of a mountain-lion-in-the-woods kind of a feeling to him that I like. He’s a fighter, and he gets to do some really cool stuff, and you find out way more about Theo as the season progresses.”

Now, what’s so special about Incorporated? There are plenty of other dystopian futuristic television shows out there—why should we watch this one?

“I think Incorporated lends a very cool perspective on what’s happening in the world today,” Ramos explained. “Companies taking over and governments losing control is something that’s already happening in our present United States, with Trump choosing corporations as some of his cabinet members, so I think it’s definitely not a far-fetched idea.”

We couldn’t have a futuristic show without great visual effects, and Incorporated has hit it out of the park. “I talked to a bunch of [the VFX team], and their job is just so cool, what they do for the show!” shared Ramos.

Ramos has high hopes for the new series, saying, “Maybe we can prevent some of the more bleak and scary vision that the Incorporated future has,” adding, “I think what’s beautiful about the story as well is that we’re keeping such human elements to it, like love, and approval, and ambition, that I think people will be able to connect with.”
