He was at the FX network's day during the TCA press tour to talk about his new role on the upcoming second season of Damages -- new enough that the listing of it hasn't yet made it onto his profile at IMDB.com. And talk about it he did, but let's get to that in another post. He's the second Deadwood-alum actor in as many days to appear on a TCA panel (Garrett Dillahunt who played Hearst's psycho-killer scout was part of Monday's Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles panel). And once again, the Deadwood diehards in the audience couldn't let the opportunity to ask some questions, specifically The Question: Will there ever be the once-promised series-concluding movie? But as an opening segue question, he was asked to compare his experience thus far on Damages with his experience as Sheriff Seth Bullock. The big difference, he said, is "that when those guys talk," pointing to executive producers Daniel Zelman, Todd A. Kessler and Glenn Kessler, "I understand what they're talking about," a reference to Deadwood creator David Milch's tendency to speak in grand, rambling, incantational discourses. Then he was asked if he always knew there would never be a movie. "I thought there was a really strong chance it would never happen, but no it's not like it was clear all along that it wouldn't. "Nothing ever was very clear in that experience." |
