Can you talk about acting with the baby?

I want to play another scene from this series.

Here, Jinx is at Margo's apartment with the baby.

He's cleaned the place.

He's trying to help out.

And he decides to ask Margo if he can move in.

Again, Margo is played by Elle Fanning.

That's a scene from Margot's Got Money Troubles.

Your character, Jinx, is a hulking guy used to being physical, but it's his wrestling that has brought him pain.

And in response to that chronic pain, he starts using painkillers and his addiction goes on from there.

How did you tackle that part of the role?

Did you talk with wrestlers or people who've dealt with chronic pain or those dealing with drug addiction?

The thing that's so heartbreaking about Jinx is that he's trying so hard, but the audience can tell that he's struggling.

He's trying to make up for the past, but he's not sure if he can do it.

Can you talk about trying to play that part of Jinx, the struggle?

I want to ask about the show The Last of Us.

It's a post-apocalyptic drama about people who've survived a global pandemic that has wiped out most of the population.

A lot of other stuff happens after that.

You won an Emmy for Outstanding Guest Actor in a Drama Series for your role as Bill.

Can you describe your character, Bill?
