INTERVIEW WITH SARA CANNING
This week, we'll see her return to The CW on "Supernatural" as one of Dean's "work-out partners" (as he describes it in the exclusive clip above) who turns out to be much, much more than he bargained for.
Spoiler alert: She's having his baby. Quickly.
"It's funny, because you audition with certain expectations, and then later you find out the full extent of what the character arc is," Canning tells us. "I was like, 'Oh! Okay?' It was so fun because everybody was talking about it like 'What? A one night stand with Dean?' and for me, yeah, the one night stand with Dean was great, but the actual motivation behind it is what interested me, because it's so crazy. The mythology behind it is pretty cool. I was excited about that stuff."
Let's just say it speaks to Canning's professional grace that she was more intrigued by the mythology than the opportunity to hit the sheets with Dean Winchester. ("I have a really tough job," she teases. "I'm trying to get your sympathy here, but I'm sensing that it's not working.")
Of course, those sexy scenes can be awkward to shoot. "It's weird. Actors are expected to always just be ready to go. 'Okay, now we're in this room, and clothes are flying off,'" Canning tells us. "It's always a strange thing, but Jensen is really such a gentleman. I couldn't help but read the script and think 'Oh, boy. This is going to be crazy.' He's wonderful, though. I couldn't have asked for a better actor or a more generous actor. He was so gracious and considerate of how I was feeling the whole time -- not to mention, he's a lot of fun. He made everything nice and comfortable."
