Billy Crudup

So on the day off, I was going to go and do this scene.

And I kept writing to him saying, you know, what if it's kind of like this?

And he'd listen and say, oh, that's an interesting idea.

And then I'd come in for rehearsal, me and George and Noah rehearsed.

And George is like, yeah, I hear you're going to try some new things out.

And I was like, yeah.

And, you know, we wouldn't quite get to them.

And I was noticing that the script wasn't changing.

And like two weeks before I was like, geez, I better figure out some fucking method shit.

Yeah.

So I did a quick and deep dive into whatever I could in their repertoire.

And during the day's work, I said to Noah and George, I got no idea how this is going to go.

So I've got a lot of backup plans, but just bear with me if you could.

Is that easy or hard for you to say out loud?

It's okay to say now because I know that I want to be helpful.

That's my baseline.

Yeah.

I don't want to be destructive to it.

It doesn't mean I'm not passionate about, I'll have these discussions with the writers, great writers on Morning Show, Carrier in the first two seasons, then Charlotte Stout in the second two seasons and their whole team.

And if something doesn't sound right to me, or I feel like it's going down a way that I don't understand, we have big creative discussions.
