![]() You wanted them to meet, but when they did, it didn't go well but it was far too short. That's what I thought was interesting, that we had that similar parallel. The whole movie, you watch these two guys not share screen together. "I didn't kill my wife," and he's like, "I don't care!" And they jump. In that movie, they did not share screen time for but two minutes, when he did that famous, "Put that gun down!" scene. ![]() And I realized that Liam is Harrison Ford And I'm Tommy Lee Jones. Jeffrey Donovan: I remember I had a discussion with Mark about this a quarter way through filming. ![]() Can you talk to me about the face off and how those two characters mirror each other? So, it was an interesting parallel, I thought.Ī large part of the tension in this film is between Meyers and Tom Carter. The life that he led, the robbing and stealing, is not the life that he wanted for himself. He's got his own crossroads and has to make huge changes. I think that's the parallel with Liam's character. All he had was his wife and his job, and he realized that the family that was surrounding him at work was letting down. Jeffrey Donovan: He doesn't have any family he doesn't have any kids. What is the personal turmoil going on with Agent Meyers? Your character seems to think he's doing the right thing, but he has not always found the gratification that one might expect. It's a hopefully above average action film that he and everyone around him elevated. I just thought it was great to see him play that kind of a role, and to play opposite him. It's really a love story that is about redemption and about Liam's character finding forgiveness and making amends for his life. ![]() Jeffrey Donovan: I love this idea that it was a hidden action movie. When you were reading the script, what attracted you to the story? As you see in the movie, his marriage is falling apart. Sadly, he put every single ounce of energy into his career. The big difference is he probably followed in his dad's footsteps and was a career FBI guy. He was born and bred in Massachusetts and grew up working hard his whole life. Jeffrey Donovan: He's not that dissimilar from me. First and foremost, tell me about Agent Meyers. ![]()
