Sleepy Hollow - Season 1 Finale Postmortem

Share on Reddit

ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: I have to start with the Henry Parrish/Jeremy twist. How long was this the plan and how long did John [Noble] know this was the plan?
We knew from the beginning. We had told John Noble about it, and I actually gave him the bible for the season when we first brought him on. So it’s been something he’s been sort of building into his performance from episode 5. And we really thought it was important to establish the Sin Eater as a character before we even heard of Crane’s son. And then to try to put to bed the idea of his son in a couple of episodes later in the back half of the season. So it’s kind of brought up, then dismissed and we move on with the story and the mythology. Hopefully we buried the ball pretty well in terms of the reveal.

You did! How long did Tom and the rest of the cast know?
You know, at the very beginning of the season, we told Tom he had a son who we were going to play as somebody — before we had been looking to cast John Noble — who was older than him because we thought that would be a really interesting way to play it. And we knew this reveal, really, at the beginning of the season. It was part of our initial pitch to [network president] Kevin Reilly. So we shared as much as the details as we had with the cast. And there are some actors who don’t like to know where you’re going; they just want to play it in the moment. Others like feeling where the season is going. So, Tom and Nicole , we brought them into the writers room, and they’ve been incredible generous with sharing the things they love about the show and their characters with us. And that helps us.
