The whole publicity machine is a very weird one. It's kind of a necessary part of what we do here, but this helps me keep grounded. ↗

I really believed that if I could play that character, who is grounded in the earth and the history of the United States - not the kind of role I usually play - it would help me change the perception out there and my own perception of what I can accomplish as a performer. ↗
