White Collar actor Willie Garson is opening up about his character's wedding, which will happen on tonight's new episode. Plus, he's talking about saying goodbye to the USA network show and his new venture.

Willie revealed that in tonight's episode, his character Mozzie is getting married, but it's a flashback. The episode will show Mozzie when he married a woman named Eva, according to TV Guide.

"It is a wedding of convenience, but there's a massive twist as to why they get married. There is actually real love there," Willie exclusively told TV Guide. "I wanted it to be surprising in that it wasn't going to be just a one-joke thing or just a joke that Mozzie has this wife. I wanted it to have some heart to it and that you could actually understand why they have this relationship."

He continued saying, "It's great because we deal with how they met, how it came about and what is this secret that Mozzie's been holding for all the time that we've known him. So I just wanted it to be handled in a way that wasn't obvious, which is really the White Collar way, to make it not obvious."

Although this wedding might come as a surprise to White Collar fans, with the series coming to an end the wedding had to be pushed up, but it was always in the plans, Willie explained.

"With so few episodes, it was like everyone is getting their curtain call, so this was really important, I think, to the writers to close this out. ... It was like, 'Oh, we have to take care of this or the fans are going to be livid,'" he told the publication.

As for the end of the series, Willie admitted he would've loved to have more time on the show.

"I, of course, would like it to have gone on forever. Our show was so collaborative. We were constantly talking to the producers. They were just really great about us being super involved," Willie revealed.

"I've been spoiled by this kind of writing. Now with the next show, which is actually my responsibility, I'm just hoping I can live up to it for myself," he added.

The Whole Day Down actor will be staring, producing and co-writing the remake of The Courtship of Eddie's Father for Fox, so don't worry, fans — you'll see him again soon.
