On network, you have limitations for how raunchy it can get and how violent it can get.

I rarely watch TV, and in the past two years, I've done three TV shows. It's quite interesting.

Everyone wants to see someone shoot someone in the head.

When I read the script, I said to one of the producers, "I know you probably want Jonathan Harker really fluffy, but I'm not gonna do that. It needs to be a mask. There needs to be a duel between Harker and Dracula."

It was just hilarious how my first reaction was, "Oh, no, it's another vampire show. I'm not interested." And then, I read the script and thought it was brilliant.

Vampires have been romanticized, and this is bringing it right back to being vampiric. I think there's something sexy and raw about that.
