BEHIND THE SCENES – Jason Isaacs

We went behind the scenes with Jason Isaacs for our February 2015 Anniversary issue. Jason is an accomplished actor. He’s the guy, where you may not know his name right away, but you definitely know his face. Some of his past film projects include Harry Potter, A Single Shot, The Patriot, Black Hawk Down and Fury starring alongside Brad Pitt. Now you know who we’re talking about. Yes, that guy! Jason now stars as Peter Connelly on USA’s DIG. The mini series is about Jason Isaacs’ character, Peter, who’s an FBI agent stationed in Jerusalem. While he’s  investigating a murder of a young female archaeologist, he uncovers a conspiracy that’s 2000 years in the making. And, this is just the surface. According the Jason, this is a combination of Showtime’s Homeland and NBC’s Heroes. As you watch the episodes, it’s easy to see how many layers there are to the series and to Peter. Peter, is a brilliant guy with a keen sense of where clues are hidden, but he’s also distracted with his home life and other personal relationships. We won’t say more, you really just have to watch for yourself.

Another aspect of the show that appeals to it’s authenticity, is the fact that the majority of the series was shot in Jerusalem. In his behind the scenes interview, Jason shared with us what his experience was like shooting in that historical city and what to felt like to be there. Although he may disagree, Jason looked very natural in his fashion spread. Several of the suits he wore, were from designer, RNT 23. We have a great time working with Jason. He has quite the acting resume, but you would never know it if you were speaking with him. What a gentleman!
