The FBI will be “very concerned” about it Missy Peregrymof Maggie after this shocking death.
Juliana Aidén Martinez teased how the team will reach when Maggie returns to work on the March 30 episode, she said TV Insider Wednesday, March 18, “When you experience something as painful as the loss of your sister…
He continued: “So, I think the team is rightly concerned and each person is going to react differently to how they give someone space. So, I think the team wants to make sure that Maggie is OK.”
On the Monday, March 16, episode of the hit CBS show, Ray DiStefano (Matthew Rauch) kidnapped Maggie’s sister, Erin (Adrienne Rose Bengtsson). Maggie spent the episode trying to save her sister but ultimately couldn’t and Erin was found dead in the back of DiStefano’s truck.
“I’ll be honest. I’m in the process, and I’m wondering what impact this might have? And sometimes I get scared because I think we’re just highlighting some of the horrors of humanity every week,” Peregrym, 43, told Deadline. “And what is this? Why are we doing this? I’m investing a lot of my life to do this?”
Peregrym was relieved to see how this game would raise the right topics on the screen.
“I think what we do is very important, because we highlight the way to move forward. Everyone loses. Everyone goes through deep emotions in life,” he explained. “You have the opportunity to show connection, relationship, intimacy, and growth. And that’s why I do what I do. I hope this makes people feel recognized and want to continue following such a terrible experience, and not give up.”
The FBIwhich premiered in 2018, focuses on the inner workings of the New York City regional crime office of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, where employees work to ensure the safety of New York City and its citizens.
Peregrym was optimistic about the program’s plans. “To go far, I was like, ‘What do we do after this?’ “You know, I’ve been playing the same character for eight years, and we’re still going,” he said. “What’s the plan? How are we going to go about the next steps of getting you back on your feet and being able to be in the world again? This is not a game where we sit in our underwear and talk on the sofa. We have to get back to work.”
He concluded: “So at what point will we talk about the reality of this situation, and we do, we do it the best way we can with our show, the way we do it procedurally. But you know, as scary as it is, I was afraid to step into that space at the end. I find it really interesting to play this character of mine and when I get my job. The challenge feels like we’re doing a new show again.
The FBI airs on CBS Mondays at 9 pm ET.
