LEVERAGE’s ‘The Queen’s Gambit Job’: Mark Sheppard Talks About What the Twist Means for Sterling

August 28, 2011 by  

[Spoiler Alert: If you haven’t seen tonight’s episode of LEVERAGE, please stop reading and go watch it. Trust me. You won’t want to read this post until after you’ve viewed “The Queen’s Gambit Job” because it will spoil a very important aspect of the hour.]

Are we all good?

If you watched tonight’s midseason finale of LEVERAGE you know that something important was revealed about our dear “friend” Sterling — he has a kid!

Now that he’s stolen her back, what does that mean for Sterling going forward? To (try) and get some answers, we asked Mark Sheppard (Sterling) his thoughts on the twist.

“He’s kept this a secret a really long time and I think he’ll want to put it back into the box,” Sheppard said. “No disrespect to Ayla Kell (Olivia) who was so much fun to play with. My kids were on set and I was like, ‘Look guys, you have a sister!’ My 11-year-old is almost the same size as her, they’re both very blond, so it was quite fun.”

“I don’t know whether Sterling would be willing to place his daughter in harms way,” he continued. “But I think it was an extraordinary point to see what lengths Sterling will go to do what he needs to do. Nate has lost his child due in no small part to the company that Sterling worked for. Sterling is part of the group of people that killed his kid as far as he’s concerned and he’s still willing to save Sterling’s kid. It says who he is and it’s a really interesting development in that way.”

And while Sheppard was mum on a potential return to LEVERAGE this season, Nate did reach out to Sterling to find out information on an unidentified person. (Possibly the man who was bugging the team?)

“Sterling never loses,” reminded Sheppard. “Remember that — Sterling never loses.”

 Were you surprised that Olivia was Sterling’s daughter?
