iF: Did you know that William Fichtner as Alexander Mahone was going to pop the way he did when he joined the cast in Season Two? OLMSTEAD: No. I was aware that he was talented as an actor, but when he came on, that’s one of those things where it was a mutual decision. He only made a one-year deal [for Season Two], and he made a one-year deal last year, so each year, basically, at the end of the year, simply he and I sit down, I tell him what we have in mind creatively, he tells me what he’s looking for, and thankfully, he’s given us what we need, we’ve given him what he needs and so he feels creatively validated and enthusiastic. This year especially, [Mahone] is completely just knocked sideways with a real major tragedy in his life and he’s at once broken and vengeful. [Fichtner] really brings it.
