Callum Keith Rennie interview about
"Shattered"
Below is part of an interview with Callum Keith
Rennie where "Shattered" is talked about.
This is the new tv show that Colin is
co-starring in.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
While Rennie was in L.A. working this summer, he
was offered the lead role in Shattered, a pilot
for Canwest Global about a Vancouver ex-cop
traumatized by the murder of his family. The
trauma has left the character with dissociative
identity disorder, wherein the victim manifests
multiple personalities. Writer Rick Crew's
rendering is a sort of Beautiful Mind meets CSI,
as Rennie's character shares an apartment with
those personalities -- a tough guy (Colin
Cunningham) a small boy (Quinn Lord) and a
teen computer whiz (Chad Krowchuk).
Rennie's character assumes those personalities
outside the apartment, as he helps a cop
(Toronto's Laura Jordan) solve crimes. "We kept
on seeing everybody all across Canada. We
weren't really convinced that anybody could pull
it off, changing into the other characters,"
says Debra Beard, who with her husband, Hugh, is
one of the show's four executive producers.
"Somebody said what about Callum, and it just
hit us. We didn't even test him."
They find out early next year whether the show
will be picked up as a series
