RIP Godric


In last night's episode we were all shocked to see Godric choose to end is life after roaming the earth for the last 2000 years.
Access Hollywood has posted an interview with Allan Hyde, the actor who plays the role of Godric. Here is an excerpt from the interview:

"[Preparing for the role was] hard because obviously you can’t imitate a guy with the wisdom of a 2,000 year old person because that’s impossible,” he explained. “The way I approached it was to think about how he would react. His scheme of reactions.”

“I found stuff in my own life that I could compare it to. I had stuff in my early years of primary school where I was kind of a bully. It’s nothing compared to the stuff Godric went through,” he continued. “I came to a realization where I was just like, ‘Whoa, this is just wrong! And the way I felt bad about myself for doing this stuff was the equivalent of Godric’s feeling just on a smaller scale.”
