"I think people are genuinely interested in their own history and I think people are interested in really strong, character-driven pieces of television. This is certainly that," star Jamie Bell tells TVGuide.com. "We're peeling back a layer of the Revolutionary War that I don't think has been captured before, or at least hasn't been focused on. ... I think we're humanizing a lot of this period in history that has been in some way forgotten about, or is now just maybe thought of in the wrong light."

"When we first meet him, he's a repressed individual. He wants nothing to do with this war," Bell, 28, says of his character. "He's an ordinary guy in extraordinary circumstances. And I think the journey of the character throughout the season is one where he restores his political beliefs. He finds his voice. ... He discovers his real love. And he also helps bring about the turning of the tide in the most important conflict in American history."
