ANDREW MARLOWE: Well, last year we got close to destroying the world. The year before that it was a dirty bomb that was going to take out New York, and the year before that it was a serial killer who blew up Beckett’s apartment. We had been getting increasingly bigger and I wanted to pull it back to something that had scope and scale but also had a deep personal investment. And I’ll tell you this, the journey that Castle goes through in this is harrowing and phenomenal. Nathan did an unbelievable job. And we see the character in ways we have never seen the character before.
It’s incredibly tough to have somebody that you care about going through something harrowing and trying to walk the line between being supportive and doing the job. This is a woman who wants to do everything she can to make sure that they get Alexis back safely. Emotions are running incredibly high with both of them and she’s doing everything she can to support Castle. There’s some really tremendous scenes between the two of them — really tender and emotionally tough scenes between the two characters that I think, hopefully, audiences will dig.
The choice that Martha makes and who she thinks she has to be in this situation I think reveals a depth of character about her. I think we’ve seen moments of it before. But for the folks at the precinct, everybody is invested. This is kind of one of their own.
Absolutely. There’s some fantastic moments in both episodes. I’m really proud of them and I really want people to watch.
If you’re looking to cast Castle’s dad, the first thing you’re looking for is someone who’s ruggedly handsome. And when you think about guys who are ruggedly handsome, James Brolin is certainly at the top of that last. I gotta tell you, we’ve had a lot of guest cast on this show in five years, but I have never seen the ladies on my crew so swoony over anyone. James has just a great magnetism and a natural charm. He’s terrific in the role we’re really proud of the job he did.
It’s possible. I don’t have any immediate plans just because of how the character unfolds in this, and I think viewers, once they see what we’ve done, will understand what I mean by that.
Didn’t Castle shoot him? Didn’t he fall off the bridge? I thought he was dead…
You didn’t see a body? Yeah, I didn’t see a body either.
No, they’re not locked in yet. They’re shaping up. We have some ideas but we’re balancing a bunch of stuff. That’s coming up.
