Guinee reconnects with N.C. roots

[nico]

Actor Tim Guinee's character may die during the first episode of "Revolution," but fans of the locally filmed series shouldn't count him out just yet.

The Hollywood veteran can't say much about what's in store for his character on the new NBC series, but he's using his time in North Carolina to revisit old stomping grounds – the University of North Carolina School of the Arts – and discover new favorites, such as the sopa de lima soup at Flying Pi Kitchen in Wilmington.

Guinee, 49, ("Iron Man," "Ladder 49") has appeared in more than 200 roles on the stage, in television and in films since he graduated in 1985 from the Winston-Salem university's School of Drama, where he studied acting.

The actor visited the school earlier this month to talk to students about creativity and the entertainment industry.
