The 'Containment' Cast Gets Real About Their Complicated Characters

Complete chaos is about to erupt tonight on the series premiere of Containment.

Adapted from the Belgian series Cordon by the genius that is Julie Plec, Containment follows the lives of different people when a mysterious and deadly epidemic breaks out in Atlanta and a a vast urban quarantine is quickly enforced, forcing those stuck on the inside to fight for their lives while local and federal officials desperately search for a cure.

The series puts Vampire Diaries alum Chris Wood at the helm, with a talented cast that includes David Gyasi, Christina Moses, Kristen Gutoskie, Claudia Black, George Young, Hanna Mangan Lawrence, and Trevor St. John.

JustJaredJr.com got to visit the set last year and sit down with the cast to talk about their characters and the relationships we’ll see overlap amidst the craziest of circumstances.

“Essentially [Lex] starts off as a guy who feels and thinks and uses his heart, and things aren’t that complicated in his life,” David told JJJ about his character, who is a Major in the Atlanta PD. “He knows who he loves, he knows the workforce, he knows the people that he serves, and he knows what he wants to do with those things. And this virus comes in and shakes that all up. Right and wrong, and good and bad, become real challenges to him. As we go through the episodes, he has some really big decisions to make.”

Containment airs TONIGHT, April 19 @ 9/8c on The CW.

The guys were also joined on stage by their co-stars Christna Moses, Hanna Mangan Lawrence, Kristen Gutoskie, Claudia Black, and George Young, as well as EP Julie Plec.

“There’s a lot of finger-pointing that starts happening about where it came from and why it has arrived,” Chris said about the show (via TV Guide). “It’s not just that someone points a finger, but there are voices of reason on the show. If anything, there are more people asking the questions and trying to solve the puzzle of why and how is this here.”
