“I was lucky enough to be in the series finale, and they added a scene at the very last minute, and I think I got to read it twice, rehearse it once…and then I think we taped it once with two different endings,” Bomer explains. “We didn’t even have time to think about it.
The revelation was so interesting to Hayes that the guest host stood up to readjust his sitting position. Hayes compliments Bomer, “You were so pro about it.”
Bomer also talks about preparing his three sons for the Super Bowl, his dad who was drafted into the NFL, and more about his role on The Sinner. View the video below to learn more.
