Actor Christopher Gorham ponders an island mystery on CBS
Hello everyone,
Screen caps for the latest episode of Harper’s Island will be up soon! In the meantime, here’s an interesting article on Chris!
Christopher Gorham wasn’t sure he wanted to get lost on “Harper’s Island.”
The CBS series is a horror/mystery/thriller that melds “Survivor,” “Ten Little Indians” and “I Know What You Did Last Summer.” It follows 20-plus characters who arrive on the titular island – a predictably remote and inaccessible one – for the wedding of Henry (Gorham) and his longtime girlfriend Trish (Katie Cassidy), only to have the guests and locals start getting offed one by one, possibly by the same murderer who had terrorized the island years earlier.
The series runs 13 episodes, with a beginning, a middle and an end – and lots of sex, death and gore.
“Like a lot of people when they first hear about it, I was a little confused about how it was going to work,” Gorham said. “So I actually had a conversation with the producer, Jeff Bell, before I went in to audition, to clue me in to exactly what was happening. Also, because it was shooting in Vancouver, I didn’t want to get locked into doing a series up there, because I have kids and I don’t want to have to move up there.
“But I had a great conversation with Jeff. It was very early on in the process, and essentially what he told me was that you have to think of it more like ‘Survivor’ than ‘Lost.’ And, like ‘Survivor,’ if it continues, the cast will change every year, the story will change every year. The only things that would stay the same are the name, ‘Harper’s,’ and the format. It would be another, but different, 13-episode murder mystery.”
