The moment with the baby, I was completely disturbed by. After a few takes, you want to be done with it. Whenever you’re taking a knife to Jamie’s wife’s throat, it doesn’t feel that fun. Whether it’s a drama or a comedy, whatever character you play kind of travels through your bloodstream, whether you like it or not. Were you disturbed by the subject matter at all? I think Nick is having a lot of fun with convincing Jamie that he is the Wolfman. It was fun and there were endless choices to how Nick might haunt him or come to him and why he would come to him. There’s no right or wrong to play someone who’s dead because nobody can tell you that’s not the way it goes. What’s it like playing someone who is dead? There are so many scenes where you come back to haunt Jamie. The team from The Sinner is some of the nicest people that I’ve ever worked with. It was kind of a magical evening, as horrific as it looked. That was so beautiful in that scene because there we were in the middle of the forest at two in the morning, saying goodbye to each other. They made it as comfortable as possible for me because I was hanging down through the windshield.

I had an eyepiece that made it look like my eye was full of broken blood vessels. The team had done an incredible job with the makeup. Things went flying and that was really fun and also nauseating after a while.

I’ve never been in a simulator where they buckled us and turned us upside down. I’ve never done anything like that before. How was your experience shooting the car crash scene? It’s very mesmerizing to watch the relationship between the two.
As angry as he is at Jamie, he’s also very sad and vulnerable like a little boy that got kicked off the soccer team. He uses it as manipulation and as a way to make a spell over Jamie. When Jamie abruptly abandoned Nick all that kind of heartbreak and rage is on the tip of his tongue in their first encounter. He was the only person that he felt was on the same level and on the same planet.
Jamie was the only person that understood him and saw him. Yes, you know, it was kind of like a breakup. How would you describe the relationship between the two? When Nick first shows up at Jamie’s doorstep there seems to be some hostility in the air. I always imagined that Nick was Dracula and he was planning to remind Jamie that he was the Wolfman. He won’t leave Jamie alone until he sees that he’s just like Nick. He went drastically down the road of checking out of life and he got the call from his old friend Jamie and the doors opened. When he got there, he realized that it didn’t mean anything to him and it wasn’t worth anything. He got a corporate job and rose up the ranks and made a lot of money. There’s a philosophy that he practised when he was younger with Jamie and then he kind of abandoned it when Jamie abandoned him. Global News: Can you tell me a bit about your character Nick?Ĭhris Messina: Nick has come to a place in life where he’s done with the bullsh–, done with the status quo, done with following the rules. Global News spoke with Messina about playing Nick, how his experience shooting The Sinner contrasts to shooting something like The Mindy Project and much more.
