Michael Fjordbak plays the Teen Wolf character that was big mystery first: young Peter Hale. In the myFanbase interview he talks about playing young Peter Hale, which is his first TV role
myFanbase: In season two you had most of your scenes with Holland Roden. How was working with her and how did you approach your kissing scene on your first tv job?
Michael Fjordbak: I think it was so cool that I had a kissing scene for my very first TV job. I met Holland for the first time literally as we sat down in the chairs in the office about to begin filming episode 2x04's office scene. I actually didn't receive the script for 2x08's kissing scene until the week before we filmed it.
Holland was great to work with. She is a talented actress. She made me feel natural and comfortable on set during our scenes. Filming was done very efficiently, so we didn't practice the kiss. We set up the shot, discussed blocking with director Russell Mulcahy, and Holland told me some specifics of how to properly kiss on camera. I followed her tips, but essentially let my emotion in that scene make it real to me, therefore is wasn't a challenge to make the kiss look good and really hot and sensual. After just about 3 or 4 takes, they got what they were looking for and moved on!
myFanbase: In the flashbacks Peter seems about five years older than Derek. With grownup Peter and Derek it's hard to tell despite Ian's and Tyler's real age. Do you have any idea how old Peter and Derek are?
Michael Fjordbak: I don't know if there have been any reference to the specific ages of those two characters, but if I was to guess, I would say that Derek is probably in his mid to late twenties and Peter is in his early thirties.
