One of our most favourite videos, courtesty of @JustinHires, being great and silly and so enjoyable with Ian.
Ian has been working tres hard, and has a lot of lines to learn. Bless his heart! We love him for being so good at large amounts of dialogue…just part of his talents.
More of Ian’s talents….voicing the doggie as his owner returns:
“Where have you been?” “You were behind that tree.”
These doppelgangers have long been mistaken for each other, both in photos and onscreen.
James Callis and Henry Ian Cusick on the set of MacGyver Season 4
@JamesCallis was beloved as Dr. Gaius Baltar on Battlestar Galactica, where he appeared in 73 episodes from 2004-2009. Ian was beloved as Desmond Hume in 74 episodes of Lost, from 2005-2010. The cases of mistaken identity onscreen have been plentiful.
But it hasn’t always been James and Ian…
Needless to say, we were excited to see they were on set together, and we all really appreciate the photo. Next, to see if they appear together onscreen during this MacGyver episode. Curiosity is sparked: brothers? cousins? evil twin? Sorry to hear that it might be as late as April before we know. Fingers are crossed globally for a January premiere.
Ian posted this to his IG @henryiancusick this past Friday, essentially “breaking” the Internet for his fans. No one minded!
It is a most excellent shot, and certainly an immediate favourite. Our thanks go to @CornellWillis, 2nd AD on the MacGyver set, for the photo. Also many thanks to @Tat_Yantis for the edit below.
And, as always, our thanks go out to Ian, for being utterly pleased with Fridays, and sharing that with us! We can feel the freedom!
