Marcia Gay Harden and Skylar Astin on Their Mother-Son Dynamic in CBS' 'So Help Me Todd' (Exclusive)
etonline.comMarcia Gay Harden and Skylar Astin star in CBS' new drama, which follows razor-sharp attorney Margaret Wright, who hires her talented but aimless son, Todd, as her law firm's in-house investigator.
ET was first on the Vancouver set in August, where Harden and Astin previewed their series, which premieres Thursday.«Dynamic duo, that’s us,» Astin told ET's Lauren Zima on the set in August while they were filming episode 3. «I love working with Marcia.
I love sparring with Marcia in the scenes. She comes from such a smart place. She’s also a thespian like myself, so a lot of the times the scenes kind of play off like theater.
We’ve done this thing -- technical term is to cross-shoot meaning that they'll be filming you while they’ll be filming me at the same time -- so it cuts together quite nicely and we really get to live in that space and what was actually happening on the day.
