Yeah, that final scene in 515 with Andy [Andrew Lincoln] rolling around on the street, just watching him in rehearsal blew my mind.
What’s great is that everybody has their own techniques—everybody can get into a moment in their own way and they use their own way. For me, I kind of take bits and pieces from other people, wherever they work. But you understand, when you watch Andy perform, just how much commitment is needed on our show that you literally need to be committed every single moment that you’re on screen because they’re always something going on. There’s rarely nothing going on. And if there’s always something going on, there’s always something to react to or to listen to or to be aware of, and I think Andy sets a great example in that way. The guy is checked in minutes before they start rolling or say action. You see when he’s dialed in and it’s time to either, as a fellow actor, 1) Leave him alone or 2) Just watch him and be in awe of how much commitment he has. He goes for it. When you see someone do something like that, how can you bring anything short of the same? Or try to? So that’s a great influence.
