Christian Weissmann on His Journey to The Bold and the Beautiful and Portraying Remy Pryce

In an interview with TV Insider https://www.tvinsider.com/1168301/bold-and-the-beautiful-remy-pryce-christian-weissmann-interview/, Christian Weissmann shared his excitement and gratitude for landing the role of Remy Pryce on The Bold and the Beautiful. After years of auditioning for the show, Weissmann finally got his chance, describing the experience as "serendipitous."

“I auditioned a few times for Bold and there were times where I got close, but I didn’t get the part,” Weissmann explained. “Remy came about, and it all worked out very serendipitously. As an actor, you have lots of auditions and parts that you go out for and you can feel like, ‘Oh, if it only could have gone that way,’ but with Remy and with everyone at Bold, it flowed so effortlessly that I knew it was kind of meant to be.”

Landing the role was an emotional moment for the actor, who had been trying to join the Bold cast since he was a teenager. “I was ecstatic,” Weissmann said. “I mean, Bold is a show that I think I went out for the first time when I was 16 or 17, so quite a few years ago. I remember being at CBS Television City and being like, ‘Oh, my God, this would be such a dream.’ So, when it finally came my way, I called my mom, and I was emotional. I was so excited. It really felt like all the stars were aligning and it was a very humbling, very special day for me.”

When it comes to playing his dark and complex character, Weissmann embraces the challenge. He describes Remy as misunderstood, shaped by neglect and isolation. “I think people can look at him and at first glance be like, ‘He’s crazy and he’s obsessive,’ but as an actor, I feel I had to go from a more empathetic point of view to really connect with Remy. He’s someone who has been neglected and isolated, and a large part of his life has never really been seen by his family or his friends, so when he has these impulsive moments of lashing out or doing bad things, he is just a hurt kid deep down and he doesn’t know how to place his emotions.”

Weissmann has also enjoyed connecting with his co-stars, forming off-screen bonds that contrast the tension between their on-screen characters. “It’s really been so fun,” he enthused. “I remember the first day I met Laneya [Grace, Electra Forrester]. It was still kind of close to summertime and we were talking about Brat Summer and Charlie XCX and pop music, just breaking the ice and talking about things that were completely separate from Remy and Electra, and I think we really bonded from there. She’s so talented. I love working with her. And Crew [Morrow, Will Spencer] is such an awesome guy. We have so much fun facing off in the show and it’s cool to play that, which is so separate from our friendship off-camera.”

Weissmann’s passion for his role and the show shines through, making him a standout addition to The Bold and the Beautiful canvas. Fans are eager to see what twists and turns Remy Pryce will bring next!
