I wish to ask you, what did you assume?
Of the ending? I believe it’s a cohesive ending in keeping with the characters and their values.
I’ve by no means seen it.
You haven’t seen the finale but?
I’ve by no means seen any of it, no. I don’t watch it.
Are you able to not watch your individual stuff?
Not likely, no, to be sincere. However I’m intrigued if [the ending] feels proper for them.
What do you make of Rob’s development over the season? Did making that transition really feel steady or extra segmented?
I believe it’s one of many nice joys of being in a long-running present: you get a real arc, real growth and development that you simply get to be a spokesperson for as nicely. You get to collaborate on that with the writers by this level. Once they first wrote the present, they didn’t know who was going to play these characters, so that you’re writing into an empty house. Whereas now, I at all times think about it [like] these frames with the cutout faces and you may put your head in them. Once they write—whether or not they prefer it or not—it’s our face within the factor. Naturally, our personal lives and characters bleed into the roles and the traces develop into extra blurred and also you develop into extra of this amorphous factor. I’ve definitely felt that with Robert. Within the ultimate levels of my audition, I bear in mind Mickey and Konrad telling me, “Simply be a bit extra you”—no matter which means—as a result of the character that I recognized on the web page wasn’t essentially what they needed long-term, and I didn’t have that form of context, introduced with somebody fairly reprehensible and fairly vapid and unlikeable. What they needed in the long term, I suppose, was much more texture and humanity and humbleness—somebody we might root for.
Do you’ve any perception on a possible Season 4?
There’s probably not a lot I can say to that, actually. It’s kind of above my pay grade, to be sincere. I dunno if anybody actually is aware of for certain—it’s at all times been within the fingers of HBO, who’ve at all times been actually supportive. From my perspective, it appears like they’ve at all times taken the leash off and simply allow us to see what we will give you.
