How did it feel to sink back into Rossis shoes after all this time?
Joe Mantegna: Thats a good analogy.
It was like, “Oh, yeah, Ive always liked these shoes.
This is great, they fit perfectly, and theyre very comfortable.”
Theres a lot of Joe Mantegna incorporated into aspects of David Rossi anyway.
It couldve gone on, you know.
We wrapped two and a half years ago.
If it had been going on continually until now, Id feel the same way.
Im good here."
I like the people I work with; I like the stories were telling.
So Im just glad we have another opportunity to do that.
So am I, honestly.
Ive lovedCriminal Mindsfor so long.
How did it feel to tap into this darker side of Rossi?
Joe Mantegna: Yeah.
But in a way, its not like were going overboard, were just being more realistic.
Thats interesting for me to be able to tap into those aspects of my character.
I mean, we really feel we have taken a step forward and upward from where we were.
So lets just see where it goes from there.
Hopefully for a long, good amount of time from beyond where we are now.
