TV EQUALS: Exclusive Interview: Anson Mount Talks Hell On Wheels Season 3

By Sandrine Sahakians
August 9, 2013


How do you get over loss and get redemption? That is a question that Season 3 of Hell on Wheels will try to tackle through Cullen Bohannon.

TV Equals had the immense pleasure to chat with the talented Anson Mount who portrays Cullen in the series about what is coming up for the character this season, some new faces we might be seeing, the differences between this new season and previous ones and more.

Find out what he had to say below and don’t miss the 2-hour Hell On Wheels Season 3 premiere on Saturday August 10, 2013 at 9:00pm on AMC...

anson_mount1 photo anson_mount1.jpg

... TV Equals: How would you describe Cullen’s journey in season three?

Anson Mount: "The touchstone word for me this season has been maturation because the first two seasons, I felt like I was portraying someone with an addiction, but an addiction unlike most. An addiction unlike anything I think we’ve seen portrayed in television. He has an addiction to violence as a way of coping with post traumatic stress disorder, and when you hit the rock bottom with any addiction, as he did at the end of season two, there are two ways to go. Death, or you figure out how to begin climbing out of it. That determines a certain kind of self-awareness and maturation that we’ve not seen in the character before. So that’s been overall the journey this year, self-awareness and the process of gaining that..."

SCIFI AND TV TALK: The Politician's Wife - Interview with Continuum's Sarah Edmondson

by Steve Eramo
08/09/2013

Having to navigate the waters when you are part of the political “machine” is complex and tricky. Being the spouse of someone in politics is also sometimes difficult, especially when there is the hint of a scandal. In the season one Continuum episode The Politics of Time, Jim Martin [Tahmoh Penikett], the leading candidate for the head of Vancouver’s local dock workers union, is a suspect in the murder of a journalist. Standing by Jim’s side, and perhaps knowing more than she initially lets on, is his wife Heather, played by actress Sarah Edmondson.

Heather is quite a fun character to play,” says Edmondson. “I’m often cast as the girl next door, easygoing-type, but Heather is quite cold, and the biggest challenge is not playing her too bitchy. If you’ve seen this Continuum episode, there was also the whole question of is she innocent? Is she guilty? What role did Heather play in what happened? She’s there to support her husband Jim, played by Tahmoh Penikett.

(Rachel Nichols and Sarah Edmondson from Continuum's 'The Politics of Time')

He’s the one in the public eye, but being his wife also comes with its challenges and trying to find that balance between how she relates to him and supports him was something Tahmoh and I spent a great deal of time on. The two of us are both very dedicated actors, and we looked at what it would take to fill out or flesh out our character’s back story as well as their relationship. I don’t know if other people picked that up, but I feel like it’s there, and Tahmoh and I built a very solid foundation that carried over very nicely to the second episode that I did this year.

No stranger to the audition process, Edmondson had read once or twice for roles on Continuum, and although it took her more than one shot to ultimately book the part of Heather Martin, it was well worth the wait.

Whenever I went in to read for the show I’d think, ‘Wow, what a great series,’ and I had a wonderful experience with the audition process,” she notes. ‘The show runner and creative mind behind the whole thing, Simon Barry, is often in the casting room, and every time I went in, he made me feel very welcome and safe. Oftentimes the audition process can be somewhat tough, but Simon is always very warm and kind, so I loved auditioning for them. By the time I went in for Heather, I felt like I was going in and seeing family, which was nice..."

TV GUIDE: Weekend Review: Breaking Bad, Low Winter Sun, White Queen, Strike Back, Clear History

Aug 9, 2013
by Matt Roush


... BADGES OF DISHONOR: As Breaking Bad begins its triumphant final lap, AMC pairs it with a show that peers even deeper into the criminal abyss: Low Winter Sun (Sundays, 10/9c), which reshapes a two-part 2006 British miniseries into a grim but familiar study of moral and urban corruption in the timely setting of a troubled, broken Detroit.

Mark Strong compellingly reprises his role from the original series as a tormented detective compelled by his partner (Lennie James) to murder a dirty colleague in the opening scenes, a desperate act that tears them apart when an Internal Affairs investigation ensues (led by former Breaking Bad patsy David Costabile). With subplots involving criminals caught up in the local drug scene, Sun aspires to the breadth if not the depth of The Wire. But it's so self-conscious in its existential misery, lacking the leavening humor and humanity of a modern classic like Breaking Bad, that it often feels more punishing than provocative...


Low Winter Sun cast includes Mark Strong, Lennie James, James Ransone, Castle's Ruben Santiago-Hudson, Sprague Grayden, Athena Karkanis, Billy Lush and David Costabile.
