Jaime Ray Newman of "MK Ultra"

Interview with Jaime Ray Newman of the movie “MK Ultra” by Suzanne 10/4/22

It was really great to speak with Jaime about her part in this movie, and about “General Hospital” (where she played Kristina, Jaime Ray Newman in "MK Ultra"Alexis’ sister) and more. I had a lot of fun. The movie comes out today, Oct. 7, in theaters and On Demand. I highly recommend it because it’s a good psychological horror thriller. Anson Mount (Star Trek: Strange New Worlds) stars in it, and Jaime plays his wife. It’s a fairly small role, but she’s great in it.

Oh, one little correction. The actress in the movie that I referred to (Jen Richards) is not the same actress as the one that guest-starred on “Star Trek: Strange New Worlds.” That’s what I get for talking off the top of my head, rather than looking it up to make sure. That actress is Jesse James Keitel. They look very similar, but they are not the same. Maybe they could play sisters in some future movie or TV show!
