Known for their popular hit shows, such as Falling Skies and Dallas, TNT has renewed the FBI drama series, Legends, for a Season 2. Based on the best-selling book by novelist Robert Littell, Game of Thrones actor Sean Bean returns with Ali Larter (Heroes) and Morris Chestnut (Nurse Jackie) for another round of action and undercover missions.
From Homeland executive producers Howard Gordon and Alexander Cary, Legends follows Martin Odum (Bean), an undercover agent working within the FBI's Deep Cover Operations division. In the DCO division, Martin has the uncanny ability to transform himself into a completely different person. But when the agent starts to question his own identity, Martin isn't quite sure about who he's supposed to be.
During our previous interview, MStars News acknowledged that not only does the Lord of the Rings actor have to physically alter himself for each character; he also has to find the voice for each persona.
MS: Tell me about the challenges that went on behind creating each persona, especially on a tight TV schedule.
SB: Yes, I guess where I start is getting inside the man's head and trying to work from the inside out. Then I put on the costume and various other effects.
But it is very much about finding a voice, finding out what makes the guy tick, getting into his psyche, and making it your own.
I didn't want to make any big obvious changes, like wearing a wig or mustache, and stuff like that. I wanted to make them more subtle and more kind of physiological rather than physical, even though they did have their own particular physical attributes.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, the TNT drama was one of solid summer debuts. The Last Ship and Murder in the First have also been renewed.
As we previously mentioned, Agent X, a politcal/spy drama starring Basic Instinct actress Sharon Stone, is also in the works.
