Russell Tovey says fans should get ready for more werewolves, zombies and other mystical creatures on the third season of “Being Human.”
The 29-year-old plays the werewolf George on the hit BBC America series. “Season three was awesome” to film, Tovey told the Herald during a recent telephone interview from London. “The sound bite is, the first season, the danger was supernatural, the second, the threat was human, and the third one, the threat was from within.”
... Although he’s seen clips of the U.S. series, he hasn’t watched an episode. “I would want at some point to sit down and watch it properly. It just feels very strange.”
He’s become acquainted via Twitter with Sam Huntington, who plays the werewolf on the American version. “We tweet each other now, and all the fans love that,” he said. “He says, ‘I’m really honored to be playing a character that you started off playing.’ And I’m like, ‘I’m really honored that you’re honored.’ So we’re both honored. It’s a big werewolf love-in.”
Being Human3 airs Saturday 9/8C on BBC America.
