Castle - Season 5 - Interview with Susan Sullivan

Share on Reddit

Thanks to Erica for the heads up.

As the season opens, is Martha in the dark like everyone else about the new relationship between Castle and Kate?
Yes, but you know Martha's a pretty wise, experienced old soul. I doubt that she would stay in the dark for too long.

Why would Castle keep it from Martha? It seems as though his mother is the one person he actually confides in.
Yes. There you go. Well, I'd really be ruining it if I told you. It's a very charming turn, the way that it all comes to the surface. And you're right. They do have a unique and special relationship and part of what makes any show or book or piece of art really work is the truthfulness of it, number one. And truth always has within it and characters always have within them contradictions.Of course Martha and Castle and all of the characters are loaded with contradictions.

Behind the scenes, does it feel like there's a new dynamic on the show now that Rick and Kate are finally together?
I think the dynamic behind the scenes as far as people connecting together and playing the moment, those are essentially the same. Whether it will be the same for the audience or not, I don't know because there's something very compelling about longing. You long for something and then you get it and invariably you go Oh, this was it?
That's the fear when you have people come together but from the first five scripts that I've read, I think they are handling this brilliantly. I am so impressed. I remember I read the first episode and I went to the writer and I said the curse of Moonlighting is broken. They've moved it to another dynamic and you can just feel that it's going to have its own life and it's going to be as interesting a life, just in a different way with the two of them now connected.

Most of your scenes are at the loft, which looks like a lovely place to spend time, but…
Oh, honey, let me tell you. If I were to have written out, which I recommend that people do, by the way…exactly what they want in life, in detail. I'd like to have an elegant apartment in New York with a patio, step down living room, wood burning fireplace you know, be detailed. I would have written in for this period of my life to have a part where I didn't have to work too much. Where the hours weren't too long and I had a great set to sit in. And I got it.
