FIGHT CLUB
Lisa LoCicero (Olivia) enjoyed shooting the ruckus that broke out at GH’s go-to dive bar, The Highsider, when Mason hit on Olivia — but, she clarifies, “Shooting fight scenes is never as much fun as hopefully they are to watch because you don’t want anyone to get hurt. That’s always in the back of your mind. But the actor who plays Mason, Nathanyael Grey, he’s a lot of fun to work with, really game, and we finessed [our interaction] a bit so that it came across believably, not like he was just some caveman at the bar.
And, of course, it was really fun to do all that with Laura [Wright, Carly] and with Wally [Kurth, Ned].” Behind the scenes, precautions were taken so that the brawl was executed safely. “We have a wonderful stunt coordinator that we work with on the show,” LoCicero notes. “There is always a stunt coordinator on set if someone has to so much as stub their toe, and to do the kinds of stunts going on here — to get a punch to really look right and to know how you’re going to shoot it so that you’re not going to land it — you definitely need a pro to help you. Everything went well and I think it turned out great!”
