"He is very fun, but at the end you can see the funny ways he has, they are like a shield to protect him against his own misfortune in some other time. That's basically what the character is all about. A very lonely guy, very solitary, he could be sad if I performed him in another way, but I tried to bring a lot of light and fun."
As for Snipes' character, he talked about his past with the team and what to expect from his "charming" persona.
"My character is Dr. Death, and he is a very philosophical individual. Well, you know, he's been away for a while, things happen, you know? He grows into understanding things about himself he didn't understand before," Snipes said.
"He's a medic that used to be one of the original team members, he's a renegade, he's very handsome, and he's one of the best characters in the show. He's from Sweden. The southern part."
