Damages co-stars Glenn Close and Rose Byrne are both featured in the September 2011 issue of Gotham Magazine.
In the issue Glenn talks about filming for Damages:
Although Close had won two Emmys for the show, and even referred to Hewes as one of the great roles of her life, she wasn’t immediately convinced. Her concern, and understandably so: the time commitment. “I promised my husband I would never complain about it again because it’s a great job. But the schedule, it’s incredibly fluid. You need to be available. For five months, you can never say, ‘I’ll have dinner with you next Tuesday night.’ And that’s hard on your family.”
Rose also talks Damages being canceled, then picked up by DirecTV:
“We were canceled. We’d moved on.” But then the phone rang. DirecTV, was offering to step in, committing to produce two additional seasons ofDamages—that is, provided the show’s leading ladies were still interested. “Immediately Glenn and I spoke,” says Byrne. “Is this something we want to do? Are there more stories to tell?”
The season finale of Damages airs Wednesday, September 15 on DirecTV.
