00:00This is the first year that the Gilded Age is nominated for a SAG Award.
00:03What does it mean to receive this sort of recognition this year from your fellow actors?
00:06It's fantastic. I think there are many things about the Gilded Age that are incredible,
00:12but I think the cast is kind of foremost among them.
00:15You could pretty much put almost any single member of this cast at the center of a Broadway play.
00:24It's just ridiculous.
00:25So, yeah, to have this ensemble nominated is really beautiful.
00:31Have you seen any scripts yet for Season 3? Any Season 3 details?
00:35Nope. I don't know anything.
00:37People are telling me things.
00:38Somebody else has got information, but I don't know anything.
00:41What's something you'd love to see happen for your character in Season 3
00:43or just happen in the show in general?
00:46I'm just excited for Season 3 to see what happens between George and Bertha
00:49because of the way that things ended with Gladys at the end of last season.
00:54I'm very curious to see how they navigate that.
00:56Since we're here at the SAG Awards and we're celebrating both TV shows and movies tonight,
01:00the Oscars are right around the corner.
01:02Do you have a favorite Oscar award season movie?
01:05I do. I think Zone of Interest.
01:07I think that film is kind of like the great allegory of our time,
01:12especially for people who live in the West.
01:15So, yeah, I actually thought there were a number of really fantastic films this year,
01:19but that was my favorite.
01:21Since tonight is all about celebrating acting,
01:23do you know when in your life you first started claiming actor as your job?
01:28Like somebody asked you, what's your job?
01:29And you're like, I'm an actor.
01:30Um, I had, it was when I finally quit my restaurant job,
01:36which is what, so I'd had a few professional gigs as an actor,
01:41and then I was finally on Broadway,
01:44and that's when I finally quit my restaurant job,
01:48and that's when I was like, okay, I can say I'm an actor.
01:51Having done Broadway and screen work,
01:53what do you prefer, live theater or being on set?
01:58Um, I, if you'd asked me five years ago,
02:01I would have said live theater,
02:02but I think over time I've really come to love working in front of the camera.
02:06Um, so I don't know.
02:07I think they're, they're, they're very different,
02:09and there's, there's something incredibly rewarding about having a live audience there,
02:12uh, and that sense of a high-wire act,
02:14like you can't go backwards.
02:16Um, but, but yeah, I also love the thing of
02:19capturing something ineffable that,
02:21that is only going to exist fleetingly for a minute,
02:23and that you couldn't necessarily repeat.
02:25So, uh, it's, they're both exciting forms.
