Having appeared in the horror movies \u201cFinal Destination\u201d and \u201cIdle Hands,\u201d Devon Sawa is on somewhat familiar turf in a supernaturally flavored new series.<\/p>\n

The actor plays a troubled detective who tries to help himself while also helping a news producer (Paula Patton, of such films as \u201cMission: Impossible \u2013 Ghost Protocol\u201d) who knows where and when her daughter (Aria Birch) is destined to die \u2013 but not why, nor by whose hand \u2013 in\u00a0\u201cSomewhere Between,\u201d\u00a0<\/a>which ABC premieres Monday, July 24.\u00a0Inspired by a Korean show, the melodrama also features JR Bourne (\u201cTeen Wolf\u201d) as the apparent victim\u2019s father, who is San Francisco\u2019s district attorney.<\/p>\n

Sawa describes his new character as \u201ckind of a broken guy who has a past. He was a police officer who let alcohol get to him and he started messing up at work and messing up with his girl. He\u2019s ended up a private investigator and is just taking jobs to get by, still drinking and using his humor just to get through the day \u2026 and he\u2019s dealt this card by fate. He believes (Patton\u2019s character\u2019s plight) right away, and by the end of the series, he\u2019s a changed man.\u201d<\/p>\n

The filming atmosphere evidently helped the \u201cSomewhere Between\u201d cast and crew. \u201cIt was a long, hard stretch\u201d in Vancouver, Sawa reports, \u201cfour months of pretty gnarly hours. It was a tough one. When I went up there, I thought, \u2018OK, it\u2019s not going to be that bad. A couple of sweatshirts, some pairs of jeans, and it\u2019ll be fine.\u2019 Well, it was their coldest winter in a long time, and we had night shoots and rain \u2026 but it kind of went with the series, so it was good. We just used it.\u201d<\/p>\n

Maintaining that\u00a0he\u2019s \u201ca fan of this kind of stuff,\u201d Sawa expectedly\u00a0shares a lot of screen time with Patton in \u201cSomewhere Between,\u201d and he\u2019s\u00a0grateful for what he deems their \u201cunreal\u201d chemistry. \u201cShe is a ball of magical energy,\u201d he says. \u201cFrom the first day, you just knew this was her passion project, and she was all-hands-on. It was good to have her as the captain of the ship.\u201d<\/p>\n

A run on The CW\u2019s now-ended \u201cNikita\u201d acclimated Sawa to series work after he\u2019d gotten a crash course by doing one episode of another show: \u201cI was on (CBS\u2019) \u2018NCIS: Los Angeles.\u2019\u00a0I\u2019d never done TV before, and I got on that set and was completely out of my element. I had no idea why they were moving so fast, and I was so unprepared for it. By the time I got to \u2018Nikita,\u2019 I realized I had to be on the ball from Take One. It takes an adjustment.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
