[Warning: The below contains MAJOR spoilers for the FBI–FBI: International–FBI: Most Wanted crossover “Imminent Threat.”]
The next world, 3-present crossover for The FBIs is motion-packed, and the stakes could not be greater — primarily for Scola (John Boyd) and Nina (Shantel VanSanten).
Nina joins Jubal (Jeremy Sisto) in Rome to kick it all off and is shot whilst in the area. And with Scola undercover and Nina expecting with his little one, Isobel (Alana De La Garza) decides it is very best not to explain to him. Useless to say, he does uncover out in the worst way, and to say he’s furious would be an understatement at a single place, Remy (Dylan McDermott) has to chat Scola down whilst he retains his gun on a perp in their custody. But by the conclusion of the crossover, the 3 groups — FBI, International, and Most Wanted — have not only stopped a terrorist assault but Scola’s also flown to Rome to be with Nina, and the two have mentioned, “I love you.”
Boyd normally takes us inside of the crossover and teases what is in advance.
Would you say this was the the very least in handle that we have viewed Scola, primarily soon after he located out what took place to Nina?
John Boyd: Yeah, I connect with it comprehensive-tilt, unhinged Scola. It is certainly the most powerful we have at any time viewed him. It is like nothing at all in advance of. It is these types of an attention-grabbing, difficult predicament for him on so a lot of ranges.

The superior information is that it appears to be Nina and their child will be Alright. But is there a worry there for their health and fitness relocating ahead, or is it now far more a dilemma of figuring out how they are heading to be mother and father?
The following stage is just type of the aim on processing what took place to them and her recovering. I consider it is truly concentrating on her restoration, and we really don’t specifically know still what their determination is. I hope the viewers desires them to be collectively, and I know that I consider that Scola desires them to be collectively. But I consider there is usually a portion of Nina — what is attention-grabbing about these people is just, do we get to have that daily life? Is it some thing that would function? Is it truly probable to do this proper?
Just for the reason that they adore each and every other does not indicate that almost everything else will immediately function out.
And that is truly the tale that we’re telling is that it is not just to get the woman in the conclusion. There is some thing further about what these people today do and how they treatment about each and every other and that is what is crucial in their tale soon after these 3 hrs is that they know that they adore each and every other in a way that they did not comprehend in advance of.
And Luke [Kleintank] arrived to New York to movie the Rome medical center scene.
Luke was excellent. We acquired to have a small chat about Bones for the reason that Luke experienced completed a present I labored on. We weren’t there at the identical time. But it was attention-grabbing to chat about that entire world.
Is the simple fact that Isobel and Jubal withheld that data about Nina staying shot heading to have an affect on how Scola considers them relocating ahead? Or is that some thing that after he normally takes a stage again, he can comprehend wherever they had been coming from?
Yeah, I consider that Scola can comprehend wherever they had been coming from after he normally takes a stage again, but I really don’t consider it is some thing that he will at any time get better from. It will usually have an affect on their romance heading ahead. When somebody in your spouse and children betrays you in a way that is these types of a breach and [goes] way too much, it does not indicate that you really don’t even now adore them. It just indicates that there will usually be a scar, and he’ll have to have that, and they will, way too. And it is only heading to enrich and deepen their romance heading ahead.
Do you consider Isobel created the proper connect with in withholding that Nina was shot from Scola when she did and for as extensive as she did?
Unquestionably. I consider Alana does these types of an awesome work on our present, and Isobel’s character is so attention-grabbing the way the lovers answer to her and consider about that character for the reason that somebody has to maintain the line. A person has to be the supreme determination-maker, and that is what is so excellent about the place that she’s in. She has to double down. It is her only decision. She has to explain to him, “It’s not about you, do your job.” And that is what helps make the romance so attention-grabbing. It is so hurtful. If there is at any time a time he necessary his manager to comprehend him and explain to him some thing, it was this, and as a substitute, she does the reverse, and when he confronts her, she doubles down on it. She’s awesome.

I just have so a lot regard for Isobel for what she experienced to do. But I, of class, empathize with Scola. It is not Alright. We spoke to FBI brokers about this, and often we talk to this dilemma of people today that have completed the work, and it is like any work: You function, but we all comprehend that we have family members, that we have liked kinds. It is not Alright what they did, but they totally experienced to do it. And I regard that. I consider Scola respects that.
Converse about filming that scene when Scola confronts Isobel and Jubal soon after he realizes Nina was shot for the reason that it was so powerful, and you had been so superior in it.
Thank you so a lot. Yeah, it was a single of my beloved scenes that I have at any time gotten to do on the present for the reason that the detail about that scene is it was agent to agent. Even nevertheless it is the Particular Agent in Cost and the Assistant Particular Agent in Cost, it is 3 brokers, and they are proper, and Scola’s proper, and they are all in the identical boat. And what is so attention-grabbing is just the harm, how a lot that harm that the people today he trusts, that he depends on, would deceive him and disguise that from him. It is so agonizing.
But having to connect with them out like that, I indicate, when we acquired there, I just mentioned, “I’ve been waiting to do this scene since I got here.” Who does not want to connect with out their bosses? They are usually telling us that we’re in hassle. So it was exciting to do a single wherever they had been in hassle.
This was a major crossover with incredibly significant stakes, but the scene wherever Scola satisfies Remy may have been the most lighthearted of the party for the reason that of Remy’s line about the fax device. And then, later on, we get a few of discussions about Nina and aim on the situation. Converse about doing the job with Dylan.
It was so exciting to function with Dylan. He’s truly checking out and pushing the boundaries of generating this character. It is these types of a excellent, attention-grabbing detail for that present and for that time slot in that entire world. It is truly interesting. The detail that I experienced so a lot exciting with was responding [to] Scola’s reactions to who he is and what this guy’s heading to do. Remy operates in a distinctive realm, in a distinctive entire world. Even nevertheless it is the identical bureau, it is a distinctive entire world. And it was so exciting to engage in a fewer seasoned agent that is enlisted the enable of a person who’s a little bit rogue, and me acquiring to answer and respond to who he is and what he does. I experienced a excellent time accomplishing it.
This undercover op did not specifically go as they experienced hoped, but do you consider Scola desires to do far more undercover function now or it’s possible acquire a stage again for the reason that of what is going on in his particular daily life?
Likely ahead, we do investigate what influence this incident with Nina and the child has on him. In processing this, he’s heading to dilemma almost everything, and you really don’t just occur proper again from that. So undercover, amid a lot of other matters, will be what he’s questioning for himself.
Who’s he conversing to whilst he’s questioning that? Just Nina? Is he conversing to Tiff (Katherine Renee Kane)?
Yeah. Scola’s heading to chat with his companion about that. He’s heading to have to consider about his job and what is very best. When somebody goes via some thing like that, you cannot enable but have the require to acquire time to consider about what is very best for your daily life and your little one. So yeah, Scola will provide Tiff into that dialogue.
We presently talked about that scene when Scola confronts Isobel and Jubal, but what had been some of your other beloved scenes to movie from the crossover?
The muster space things with the Most Needed solid was truly attention-grabbing to get to be with them, to get to engage in a character that is in particular dire straits and determined to get a work completed, and to have people today that are not his common crew intervene to provide him again. That was truly a single of the significant factors of having to stand in the muster space with the Most Needed solid, and it was truly, truly excellent. They are superb.
What else is coming up on FBI heading ahead?
We have acquired a lot far more to occur. Maggie’s [Missy Peregrym] sister’s coming again. We have acquired Scola questioning his foreseeable future as an agent. Yeah, it is heading to be superior.
