Claudia Doumit specified what that day of filming that particular gory blood scene was like, she said “It was the last day of filming for the season. It was really funny because, for me, it was just another day on set. I know that sounds insane and maybe I was in complete denial, but it was just another day on set for me. I remember being so happy, walking around from department to department and giving everyone their wrapped gifts, taking photos, and having a really easy, relaxing last day.”
The Timeless actress then revealed that she found shooting the last sequence very relaxing despite the nature of it.
