0:48Now PlayingToday, Jack is joined by Tom Hopper who brings Raife Hastings to life in _The Terminal List: Dark Wolf._
In this episode, Tom and Jack talk about the weight of bringing fan favorite character Raife Hastings to the screen. Tom shares how he found the role through test reads, chemistry reads with Taylor Kitsch and Chris Pratt, and a deep dive into the books that made him even more fired up to step into Raife’s world.
They reflect on favorite moments from _Dark Wolf,_ including Raife’s first scenes, the evolving dynamic between Reece, Ben, and Raife, and the authenticity that came from training, conversations with SEAL advisors, and a cast and crew committed to getting it right. They also discuss the tone shift in Episode 2 as the series moves from the battlefield in the Middle East to the world of espionage in Europe, the emotional cost of Raife’s arc, and how _Dark Wolf_ helps set the stage for what comes next in _The Terminal List Season 2: True Believer._
Along the way, they touch on standout performances across the cast, lines and themes that carried through the season, and Tom’s experience joining a production that felt more like family.
