Spike is behind Buffy while another Spike image shows him concerned in Buffy the Vampire Slayer
James Marsters, who played Spike in Buffy The Vampire Slayer, says there was one episode he filmed for the series that still haunts him to this day. Buffy fans will not be surprised to learn the episode in question is season 6, episode 19 “Seeing Red.” In the controversial episode, Spike forces himself on Buffy after trying to convince her of her feelings for him.
In a recent interview on the Inside of You podcast, Marsters spoke about the infamous scene, noting filming it “crushed” him and caused him to seek out therapy. The actor also stated that filming it was the “darkest professional day of my life.” Marsters added that he generally avoids media involving sexual assault, but because he was contracted to act in the scene, he felt he couldn’t say no.
I was contracted to do this. I couldn't say no. There's just something in it. Film acting is that you make it real for yourself. That's the whole point if it's going to work, right? Because you don't want to film a scene like that and then have it suck on top of having to do it, so you want it to actually be good.”
