Comic-Con panel: Sanctuary, Saturday, July 23, 11 a.m.-12 p.m., Indigo Ballroom
... THR: What’s coming up during Season 4 of Sanctuary?
Tapping: "We painted ourselves in an impossible-to-get-out-of corner at the end of Season 3 and we start in a time and place that is very special to my character [Dr. Helen Magnus], but is rich with history and stories. I directed the second episode and Robin Dunne directed the sixth episode. We do an episode on a tropical island. We do an episode on an ice breaker on the Behring Sea. The Victorian era episode, it was raining inside the studio. You’ll see a great directing turn from Robin Dunne."
THR: Who can viewers expect to see in the upcoming season?
Tapping: "The guest stars that the fans have really loved and embraced are all back this year. Carlo Rotta is in an episode called “Monsoon” and he’s laugh out loud funny. Brian Markinson, who has been in everything from Woody Allen films to Angels in America, he did our third episode and we’re having him come back because we loved him so much..."
The fourth season of Sanctuary premieres this fall.
