Video: Christian Slater on Being a Bad Boy in 'My Own Worst Enemy'

Step aside Jekyll and Hyde! The Insider’s with Christian Slater on the set of his new NBC show, “My Own Worst Enemy,” and the star is giving us the dish on his character’s warring split personality -- two polar opposites with only one thing in common: the same body!

On the show, Slater plays Henry, a middle-class efficiency expert living an ordinary life with his wife, two kids and a dog. But Henry has a dark side: Edward, an operative who works for a secret agency and is trained to kill. When the mental barrier between Henry and Edward breaks down, both find themselves thrust into unfamiliar territory where each man is dangerously out of his element.

The show co-stars Alfre Woodard (“Desperate Housewives”) as Edward’s agency boss, Mike O’Malley (“Yes Dear”) as Henry’s best friend with a violent alter-ego of his own, and Saffron Burrows (‘The Bank Job’) as a psychologist with a good read on the inner workings of both Henry and Edward.

Don’t miss Christian -- and Christian -- in “My Own Worst Enemy,” premiering Monday, Oct. 13 on NBC!
