Boris McGiver Teacup Interview header
Boris McGiver is a country man who must work with his neighbors to determine a horrific ordeal in Teacup. Son to acclaimed character actor John McGiver, Boris has steadily risen to stardom since holding early supporting roles in everything from the Queen Latifah-led Taxi to HBO's acclaimed crime drama The Wire and Steven Spielberg's Lincoln.
With the show halfway through its season 1 run, Screen Rant interviewed Boris McGiver to discuss Teacup, why audiences shouldn't judge his character's book by its cover, the joy of working with Strahovski and the show's talented ensemble, how Donald will react to Ellen's death, and why viewers should trust in King's glowing review of the horror title.
Boris McGiver: Well, when I finally got to where my character was in the script, I found that he's really one of the people where you really couldn't judge him by a cover. He was a book that had a lot more layers than you thought. And that's what I found attractive about him, and Ian brings so much depth to his writing, even in two or three lines, just back and forth between people, you think,"Oh, wow, there's a lot there to unpack.
So how did you feel, then, when you saw the actual practical effect being done? Because when I spoke with Yvonne and everybody, they were all blown away. But then, you add everyone else's reactions to those moments, especially in scenes when there's so many of us in the scene, it becomes a whole new life. No one's been forced to have to live like this, at least in their lives. They're forced together, they can't go anywhere, they're stuck together, all seven or eight or nine of them, whatever it is, I forget how many. And that's what's interesting, is how Donald reacts with those situations.
