[7] During the production of the first series, Farrant was 22 years old while playing the high school-age character. Alex's athletic talents greatly assist him during his missions many times: for example, in Point Blanc he snowboards down a mountain on an ironing board to escape Point Blanc Academy, in Skeleton Key he scuba dives into Skeleton Key, in Scorpia he base jumps into a factory, in Ark Angel he walks between two apartment buildings on a tightrope and in Snakehead, he kayaks down a river on a makeshift kayak. In the 2006 Stormbreaker film directed by Geoffrey Sax, Alex Rider is played by Alex Pettyfer, a British actor. Pettyfer was chosen from 500 hopefuls for the role of Alex. [3] [4] Pettyfer was fifteen years old at the time of the film's shooting, a year older than his character. [5] It is one of two books where Alex does not find out the antagonist's plan directly, instead he overhears details about it. The first is Scorpia.

She has an incessant habit of being attracted to boys and judging them by their appearance. She responds sarcastically at first when Alex reveals he is part of MI6, but then responds angrily. This is because of the trauma after her father was devastatingly injured by Yassen Gregorovitch. However, in the final moments of her ordeal with Damian Cray, she displays daring, bravery and selflessness in fighting off Cray, giving time for Alex to rejoin the fight. Afterwards, she claims that she will be haunted by the circumstances and events surrounding Cray's death for the rest of her life

In both the graphic novels and the film version of Stormbreaker, she appears as a school friend of Alex, instead of meeting him at Wimbledon, to provide a love interest element to the film and graphic novel interpretations. On pg 207 Dr Flint refers to Alex by his name in front of Freddy whilst Alex was undercover as 'Julius'.

Both Mellish and Chumley are extremely dangerous, responsible for the deaths of fifty agents all over Europe The positives is that it's still a great book series for a younger audience. It's well written and very well researched. According to Wikipedia "In post-2010 editions of the novels, Wolf is retconned to be the same character as Ben Daniels, who in earlier editions is the identity of "Fox"." Alex propels himself on a personal crusade to chase that which seemed lost and Horowitz delivers action set-piece after set-piece with breathtaking abandon. As well as that, we have another brilliant villain or in this case villains in the shape of the Grimaldi brothers, twins operating pretty much as a single entity. They have a suitably notorious history and a suitably nefarious scheme that Alex finds himself having to stop. Petski, Denise (10 November 2020). " 'Alex Rider' Renewed For Season 2 By IMDb TV".
