Warning: This article contains spoilers for the finale ofLisey’s Story.

What was your inspiration for those things?

They added several scenes for your character that weren’t even in the book.

Dane DeHaan

And then Stephen would write new scenes for me.

Was Dooley’s use of the yo-yo Pablo’s idea?

Yeah, I think it was Pablo’s idea.

Lisey’s Story

And luckily I am kind of a victim of the yo-yo craze of the ’90s.

So it was still in me to do a few tricks, you know?

One of the most horrifying moments in both the book and the show is when Dooley first attacks Lisey.

In the book, it’s with a can opener.

In the show, though, it’s with a pizza cutter.

Do you know why that change was made?

I don’t know specifically why it changed.

I think it also ultimately works into the themes and tone of the show.

What was it like shooting that scene with Julianne?

Julianne is such a kind, giving person.

How was that created?

But that’s how it’s made.

It’s basically made from a mold that they make of my face and body.

The people that make those things are pretty incredible.

What was your reaction when you saw the finished product?

I thought it was pretty amazing.

I think a lot of people were really blown away by it.

A weird moment in time.

But again, it’s a true art form.

What would you say was the trickiest part about playing Dooley?

So ultimately, that was probably the most difficult part of it.

You’ve played a lot of villains.

How do you feel about that?

He’s so different.

Well, sure, of course.
