Kevin Durand on ‘Locke & Key’ and ‘Vikings’
Durand plays Gideon, the antagonist, in Locke & Key. While talking about the show with CBR, he confessed that he had always been interested in playing a bad guy.
He joked about how he spends his day being a good guy and tries not to be “too scary” because of his face and towering height. So, when he can unleash, he enjoys doing so.
He said, “I love when I can unleash, especially this one because of the nature of the character. I didn’t have to search or try to unearth the humanity in the character. He was possessed, so it was great to embrace his evilness.”
Talking about his character, he said Gideon was a human, but his hunger and greed were something humans could not comprehend. This made him “beyond normal.”
So, when the demon took over, Gideon went off the rails. “He wanted to be king of the universe. It was fun to step in and luxuriate in that,” Durand added.
The actor also spoke fondly of his character in Vikings with TVLine. He said The Wanderer was mysterious, and Rasputin slightly inspired Durand to portray the character.
He also admitted that he was a wanderer in real life. He said, “I kind of like show up in many, many different places. So I’m a very lucky wanderer. I’m definitely a journeyman — and hopefully those journeys have made me wiser and I have many stories to tell. So, there you go.”
