- 0:46Speaker 1: set bright and early.
- 0:49Speaker 3: Grillo, what a character. I just put three hat me
- 0:53Speaker 3: knowing devices.
- 0:54Speaker 1: In his trailer and it took them all day to
- 0:57Speaker 1: find out what the third one is.
- 0:58Speaker 3: To real cats, it's a there's never a dull.
- 1:02Speaker 1: I think this season the stakes are even higher, the mischief,
- 1:09Speaker 1: the obstacles even grittier.
- 1:13Speaker 3: The audience is in for a surprise.
- 1:15Speaker 2: Such such a fun show too, And I gotta say, Stallone,
- 1:18Speaker 2: what's he coming in at seventy eight something like that?
- 1:22Speaker 3: I think it's around there, damn.
- 1:24Speaker 4: So impressive and he still looks so believable.
- 1:26Speaker 3: But here's the here's the fucking impressive thing.
- 1:29Speaker 1: Like man, it's it's so incredible to sit back every
- 1:33Speaker 1: day on set and see how much movie mabeve fuels a.
- 1:39Speaker 3: Man, you know, to sit there.
- 1:41Speaker 1: He's just so in his element on this set, I mean,
- 1:44Speaker 1: because he's so involved writing it, he's so involved with
- 1:49Speaker 1: directing the camera angles, and he's so committed to this,
- 1:53Speaker 1: to this story. It amazes me every day, not only
- 1:57Speaker 1: when he sits back in day after day, has to
- 2:00Speaker 1: had a lot pages and pages and monologus, I mean,
- 2:03Speaker 1: but also just his love for drama, for just the ship.
- 2:16Speaker 1: He's just the best, you know, the best.
- 2:18Speaker 4: Around, absolutely living legend right there.
- 2:20Speaker 3: So cool.
- 2:21Speaker 4: So I look forward to the next season.
- 2:22Speaker 2: Meanwhile, congratulations on the new movie starring in Baron's Cove.
- 2:26Speaker 4: Looks pretty intense. Tell me about the premise.
- 2:30Speaker 3: It's intense.
- 2:30Speaker 1: It's it's about a man Caleb I play, who has
- 2:36Speaker 1: had quite the haunted past, and he's got the sun
- 2:39Speaker 1: his shining light, and at the beginning of the film,
- 2:43Speaker 1: his son is murdered and he seeks to find the
- 2:48Speaker 1: answers and come to find that his classmate who was
- 2:51Speaker 1: deemed responsible, he sets out to kidnap and this boy
- 2:56Speaker 1: has revealed his son of a local senator, and so
- 3:00Speaker 1: a manhunt ensues, an immediate frenzy, and it really just
- 3:05Speaker 1: escalades from there.
- 3:07Speaker 2: Nice, is that one of your more darker characters that
- 3:10Speaker 2: you've played.
- 3:11Speaker 1: Well, you know what, surprisingly, no, But it was just
- 3:18Speaker 1: it was a really intriguing script that this young filmmaker,
- 3:21Speaker 1: Evan Killman, he wrote it and directed it. I'd read
- 3:25Speaker 1: this script when I was actually shooting the first season
- 3:27Speaker 1: at Tulsa, kan and he wrote this script that was
- 3:32Speaker 1: kind of seemingly, you know, a pretty dark, vicious thriller, and.
- 3:40Speaker 3: You know, it's not particularly my territory.
- 3:43Speaker 1: And then I came to the end of the script
- 3:45Speaker 1: and there was this question being answered by a detective
- 3:52Speaker 1: to Caleb, and it sort of exposed such a vulnerable
- 3:57Speaker 1: side to the character that I played, because this man,
- 4:01Speaker 1: with all of his his walls up and his shells
- 4:04Speaker 1: up and all of this darkness that he's committed, was
- 4:07Speaker 1: really just a man that was insecure if he was
- 4:12Speaker 1: enough as a father, And that was something that I
- 4:16Speaker 1: thought was so tender and sweet, and that was something
- 4:18Speaker 1: that I thought I could ride and play with throughout
- 4:22Speaker 1: this film from the get go, and from that moment,
- 4:26Speaker 1: you know, it made me think about my own son,
- 4:28Speaker 1: who's down four but it was two at the time,
- 4:31Speaker 1: and made me question what.
- 4:35Speaker 3: How far would I go for.
- 4:37Speaker 1: My child if something like this happened and there were
- 4:39Speaker 1: no bounds and limits and and you know, I think
- 4:45Speaker 1: this film does a good job making the audience question
- 4:47Speaker 1: as well.
- 4:48Speaker 2: Yeah, no, that's that's a great question. Look forward to
- 4:50Speaker 2: checking that out. This is fascinating. You're playing the detective
- 4:54Speaker 2: in the upcoming Paramount Plus series Unspeakable to Murder, John
- 4:57Speaker 2: Bennie Ramsey. I just saw a great camn right. I
- 5:00Speaker 2: believe it's the latest one that was on Netflix. It
- 5:03Speaker 2: really made me sort of question a bunch. So you're
- 5:06Speaker 2: how did you see that doc?
- 5:08Speaker 3: By the way, I sure did.
- 5:10Speaker 4: How is that close? How was that related to this?
- 5:12Speaker 1: So we were we were shooting when when that had
- 5:15Speaker 1: come out, and everybody who was really worried at the
- 5:17Speaker 1: time that that what either what it was going to
- 5:20Speaker 1: expose that itself that would be different, or how maybe
- 5:25Speaker 1: the next couple of episodes would do We're going to
- 5:27Speaker 1: have to alter.
- 5:28Speaker 3: But yeah, I saw the doc.
- 5:29Speaker 2: Yeah, I thought it was really good and it made
- 5:31Speaker 2: it made it uh it totally uh changed my perspective
- 5:35Speaker 2: because growing up and during the time, you thought the
- 5:36Speaker 2: parents is and that. So I don't want ask any questions.
- 5:38Speaker 2: I don't want to spoil it another because you've been
- 5:41Speaker 2: doing a lot.
- 5:41Speaker 4: Man, good for you.
- 5:41Speaker 2: You also joined the cast of the new Amazon Prime
- 5:43Speaker 2: series Criminal along with Charlie Huntum.
- 5:46Speaker 4: And this one's based on a Marvel comic book.
- 5:48Speaker 3: Correct, this one.
- 5:50Speaker 1: It's a it's a graphic novel by Ed Brubaker. It's
- 5:54Speaker 1: it's very dark, very gritty, you know, just just a
- 6:03Speaker 1: really phenomenal collection. And they got such a wonderful cast together.
- 6:08Speaker 1: I mean, look, Charlie's been my best pal for twenty years.
- 6:15Speaker 1: We used to help each other, you know, prepare for
- 6:19Speaker 1: auditions and sleep on each other's couches and everything like that. Obviously,
- 6:23Speaker 1: the only time we got to share the screen together
- 6:25Speaker 1: was Triple Frontier, so to jump onto this was another
- 6:31Speaker 1: wonderful adventure and other friends, Audrey Giorno's on it. She
- 6:35Speaker 1: was in triple with us and I did another film
- 6:40Speaker 1: as well. And Richard Jenkins, who he and I had
