FanBolt sat down with James Purefoy at Comic Con 2012 to talk about his new lead role in The Following. The drama will follow an ex-FBI agent (played by Kevin Bacon) as he's called out of retirement to track down a diabolical serial killer (played by James Purefoy). Purefoy talked with us a bit about he prepared for such an intense role and what we can expect to see from his character in Season 1.
