TV GUIDE: VIDEO: Grimm Returns with More Shirtless Rage and Morphing Madness

Mar 7, 2013
by Hanh Nguyen


When NBC's Grimm returns for its spring premiere Friday at 9/8c, Nick (David Giuntoli) has just discovered that his girlfriend Juliette (Bitsie Tulloch) has been seeing his boss Capt. Renard (Sasha Roiz) on the sly. And even though Nick is a Grimm, Renard is half Hexenbiest, which makes for quite a matchup in this world. While Grimms are known for trouncing Wesen, fans of the show know that Renard is known for his rage — shirtless rage that is.

Check out ... [the] exclusive video [at the link above] of the cast discussing the origins of shirtless rage, hashtags and the evolution of Nick's unique Grimm skill. Continue reading for more scoop on Grimm's return:

... TV GUIDE: What is Nick's mental state when we come back?

David Giuntoli: "I am very angry, torn apart, kind of devastated in a guy-girl kind of way. I want to confront [Renard] in some way. Monroe (Silas Weir Mitchell) always wants to try to stop me. He doesn't know quite what I'm going to do."

Silas Weir Mitchell: "It makes me very nervous. God only knows what he might do. He could get killed, he could kill somebody. I know it's tough for him. I want to help him, but I can't. He's a loose cannon."

Giuntoli: "And coming up in the season, we see that Nick's got more than just good fighting skills. He has some quasi-superhuman abilities..."


... TV GUIDE: What else can we expect to see? Any new Wesen?

Bitsie Tulloch: "We have a very modern, cool take on Rumplestiltskin, which is awesome. They're also doing one, which is sort of a take on Mr. Sandman that involves some parasites."

Sasha Roiz: "But it's a very, very violent and grotesque Mr. Sandman version, as we do."

Silas Weir Mitchell: "Really gory, ugly stuff that's just really kind of great."

David Giuntoli: "I still want to see a Schnietmache ... I think it might be like a Snuffleupagus kind of moment, where he just leaves the room before I get in there. "What? Where's the Schnietmache?""
