I don't think it's unusual to spend time with your castmate.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
That's how I relax. I love singing with my castmates.
It's very trying on a marriage when you're doing a one hour show, week after week after week. You don't have enough time for people that maybe you should have top priority.
We, some cast members and I, even went on a weekend trip together and spent the weekend at an inn, because we enjoy each other's company so much, and it was so cool.
I think when you're dealing with very tenuous scenes and difficult and heavy subject matter, it's important to be close intimately with your cast as friends, and be able to diffuse a lot of that tension and trust each other with the work.
Acting is a really strange thing to do; it's very strange.
I don't cast somebody that I think is like my younger self.
Sometimes it's all about the casting.
I'll get cast occasionally as sort of the jerk version of myself, and I have fun doing that. But it's really better for everyone if I stay behind the camera.
Doing love scenes is always awkward. I mean, it's just not a normal thing to go to work and lay in bed with your co-worker.
I would love to play your common, everyday guy, but I never get cast as that.
