The cast and creators of RabbitHole spoke with Digital Trends about why a series involving the power of technology and disinformation should be told in 2023.
For John Weir , deception is a strength, not a weakness. Weir specializes in corporate espionage, as he and his team manipulate stocks, create fake news stories, and make the lives of the rich a living nightmare for the group’s financial gain. Unlike the intense Jack Bauer on 24 and the noble Tom Kirkman on Designated Survivor, Sutherland’s Weir in Rabbit Hole is cocky, slick, and brilliant as he stays ten steps ahead of his opponents.
I just think people feel like there are things behind the scenes happening that are out of their control by bad-intentioned, powerful people. We enter into the world with Kiefer’s character, who’s in corporate espionage [and] sort of a participant in it, but then he gets caught in a web of lies and death and destruction that makes him realize it’s a much more complicated and deadly game than he even he thought it was.
Rob Yang: I’m not that old, man. Come on, man [laughs]. He’s [Walt] always flaunting that “I’m so young.” Enid Graham: I think she finds a kindred spirit with Weir because she is very driven, kind of obsessive, and won’t ever take “no” for an answer. He also has those qualities, so she becomes obsessed with exposing him, [and] bringing him down. It’s also important to her to regain her former position at the FBI. She sees this case as a way to do that, to prove herself in this man’s world where she’s struggling to be taken seriously and listened to.
Ficarra: Well, the idea is that he plays a character who’s a little unreliable because he has a lot of secret knowledge. He knows a lot of what’s going on. Also, the filmmaking is revealing things at key moments, so you’re not getting the whole story. If the audience is going to be tricked in that way or toyed with, there’s no better person than someone like Kiefer, who America trusts. He’s an icon.
