Joe Layton has warned that his Coronation Street character Mick Michaelis will be out for Kit Green's (Jacob Roberts) blood, as a shattering bombshell comes his way in upcoming scenes.
Speaking at a recent press event, Layton told RadioTimes.com and other media that Mick doesn't see this betrayal from wife Lou (Farrel Hegarty) coming.
"I think that there could well have been transgressions from both Lou and Mick over the years. But for one, [for] Brody not to be his biological son, and two, the father to be Kit, is completely mad [to him] - he had no idea, that's how I played it!"
On his alter ego's reaction, he describes a disturbing scenario as Lou is viciously attacked by her husband, and Mick then turns his attention to Kit.
"He becomes fixated on Kit and it becomes about rage and finding a channel to outlet these emotions through."
Layton added that this will provide an insight into why Mick is the way he is: "I think if you could give Mick a time machine, and he could go back in time and choices could have been made differently, [he would], which we'll see in this flashback episode," he said.
Expanding on this, Layton added: "Mick is a product of his environment and a product of the way he was raised, and that's reflected in Brody."
The star is proud to be able to explore this, praising the show's history of telling important, issue-based stories that affect real people.
"The platform that Corrie has, and soaps as a wider genre of entertainment have, is enormous. There's a responsibility to handle things really carefully; so as upsetting and challenging as that material is, I feel lucky to have had the opportunity to be a part of a storyline like that."
