Brett Dier also recently wrapped filming on a spot in Shattered, airing on Global, about a homicide cop suffering from schizophrenia.
“The schizophrenia either helps everything or it ruins everything,” Dier said.
Working with Callum Keith Rennie, who plays the title role, Dier learned how the actor improvs much of his lines and draws a better performance from actors in the scene. It’s what Rennie did for Dier in an interrogation scene, where Rennie pulls dialogue from Dier’s mannerisms and reactions.
“Every set I’ve been on I’ve learned something,” Dier said. “I pick up tricks everywhere I go.”
