‘Station 19’ Star Boris Kodjoe Talks Directing Vic’s ‘Resurrection,’ Saying Goodbye to Sullivan in Final Season and What He Took From the Set


'Station 19' star Boris Kodjoe on directing Episode 6, and saying goodbye to Sullivan: 'The cancellation comes as a surprise to all of us.'

After directing his wife (and former “Soul Food” costar) Nicole Ari Parker in the Lifetime movie “Safe Room,” Kodjoe expressed an interest in helming an episode of “Station 19,” and his wish was granted midway through the show’s final 10-episode run. Shortly after initiating that group discussion, Vic — who has probably endured the most loss of any of the show’s main characters — finally reaches her breaking point, feeling the compounded weight and grief of losing not only her friend but also the program that she used to try to save him. While taking a break from helping his daughter, Sophie, move out of her college dorm for the summer, Kodjoe discusses his latest foray into directing, saying goodbye to the longest character he has ever played and describes the kind of sports film that he hopes to make one day.
