Um, I would describe my character as someone who grew up loving movies and who worked very hard to be someone who got to make movies. And I think he's someone who wishes he was very creative, but is not. And he kind of views himself as creative, but simply isn't. And so his avenue to filmmaking, quote unquote, I guess, became being a studio executive. And he's very ambitious and creative.
very self-preservational and someone who will do the thing that allows him to keep going rather than to perhaps lose it all. And he's someone who's constantly put in a position to really disappoint both himself and the people that he idolizes and the medium that he idolizes. Yeah.

Yes, he's very panicked and stressed out and wears it on his sleeve and does not. And that's based on some specific people I know is that they wear their panic like clearly like they have a bad poker face. And that is very much something my character has as someone who is never trying to calm a situation and always subscribing to like the worst case scenario basically, you know.

He really does. Yeah. and it's really making fun of me in a lot of ways, you know, and, and, and I don't have like the delusions of grandeur. I think my character in the show has, but I think it's inspired by the same belief that like one movie can change the entire course of Hollywood. And I don't think I'm going to be the person to make that movie necessarily, but you want to at one time. Yeah.

And, and for sure. And I think if you're a, an ambitious executive, uh, who's obsessed with Robert Evans, then you really think you could do that, you know? And so I think it's a silly goal to have, and my character has specifically that goal, I think. He wants to be viewed as like the savior of this town, you know?

Yeah, Robert Evans was an independent producer in Hollywood in the 70s who eventually became the head of Paramount. And essentially, like, championed some of the biggest... films of the 70s, like Chinatown and The Godfather. And he was known for being one of the few people who was beloved by the talent, quote unquote, who made incredibly successful movies and who made incredibly good movies.

And he also has the distinction of being... If not the only one of the few studio heads who negotiated in their deal that their name was actually on the movie, which is a big plot line in the show, that your name isn't on the movie. And he actually had his name on the movie, even though he was running the studio, because he understood the importance of his legacy.
