Het eerste seizoen van The Strain moest langzaam op gang komen, maar tegen het einde aan kwam het pas echt goed los. Hier door kreeg de show een beetje Resident Evil achtige vibe, maar dan met vampieren die wel eng en niet schattig zijn. Seizoen 2 is ondertussen bezig op de Amerikaanse TV en gaf Kevin Durand een interview aan de website Collider en daar van kan je hier onder alvast een stukje lezen.

In Season 1, every time this group of people stepped out of where they were hiding out, they had to fight their way through vampires, so there was not much time for any romance. But this season, it seems as though there's a little more time to explore things like that. Does Vasiliy have actual feelings for Dutch, and what can we expect to see from their dynamic, going forward?

DURAND: It was really interesting to go through the way that he processes feelings. He's kind of reclusive, in a lot of ways. He wants to learn everything that he possibly can to be the best exterminator in the Five Burroughs, and maybe the world. His goal is to figure out new ways to take his occupation to a new level. I don't think he's had a lot of serious relationships. Maybe he's had quick run-ins with women and had his fun, but this is the first one who appeals to him. It was really interesting to see that. And Ruta Gedmintas is such an incredible actress and lovely person. We've come to be good friends. We all have, actually. It's really fun to play those scenes because the writing is so good, and within the context of that writing, I think we've found some really profound, truthful moments that hopefully people will find compelling. It was really fun and interesting to play. You've got this big bear of a man who doesn't know how to deal with his feelings. He just knows that he's a great killer. Now, he's being forced to look inside himself, in a way that maybe he wasn't prepared to.
