You were recently on Season seven of “24” playing the role of Ryan Burnett. And you had a good number of intense scenes with Kiefer Sutherland’s Jack Bauer. But you also had one of the most significant death scenes. What was it like to work with Sutherland? And to film that final scene?
Kiefer was great! A true professional and an incredibly dedicated and hard working actor. He EARNS his producer credit on the show and sets the tone for the level of commitment that is required from anyone participating. It was a ton of fun working with him and getting tortured. I remember during the last scene, asking him how he’s gonna react to the nerve toxin we were suffering from so I could copy him. Thought it’d be weird if we were exhibiting different symptoms of exposure. He’s a true pro and it was a great experience.
