It was so apparent and so obvious how important this project is to him.
And thankfully my instincts were right.
We had afantasticfirst season.
I really felt like I landed in a pot of honey.
And time is valuable.
He doesnt rush the time and he doesnt squander time.
Hes just in it.
As an actor, when hes just acting, hes a little looser, as you have to be.
Its a slightly different energy.
What is Wendys greatest asset and greatest liability?Her greatest asset is her scrappiness.
She knows how to survive.
The same thing, actually.
Her field of vision can get very narrow.

Acting on water its a different experience than acting on land.
One of the wonderful things thats happened with television lately are these site-specific shows.

The way that shes behaved the series is just instinctive and reactionary.

It doesnt finish the story, but I also think its satisfying.
And if were not, then it will be left feeling completed.
The stakes have multiplied, maybe exponentially, with Marty now caught between two cartels.
They solve one thing, and then it just opens up and leads to many more problems.
Theyre constantly grasping for shore and theyre not there yet.
The writers havent gotten together yet.
I think well be eager and ready to go if were given the permission to do so.
There are so many good characters all in one place that something fun is going to happen.
