You'd be hard pressed to find more drama in 'Days of Our Lives' than you do in an average job each day.
Everybody thinks it's glamorous and this spy versus spy stuff is so exciting, but working in that industry and being a CIA operative, like a field officer, is tough. That's a difficult job that usually dismantles their lives in some capacity.
I do have someone that I work with and she is amazing and I definitely don't have unmitigated abusive tendencies towards her. She is very sweet. I also know what that is like. I have heard my agent thinking he has hit mute on the phone before he, you know, physically unleashes broken glass and cellphones at his poor assistant. It is a tough job under the best of circumstances. I understand that.
When I first moved to Los Angeles I came down there on a wing and a prayer in a way. I had about six weeks worth of money to make it there and that was just from doing a couple of episodes of the X-Files just to finance that trip. I got there and it is either you got to hit it or you got to go and, thankfully, I found a job.
I had a lot of different jobs between fifteen and nineteen. I'd moved out of my house way, way younger than I should have. So I was living out on my own with my brother when I'd just turned sixteen. I did busboy stuff, and worked in warehouses, and did odd jobs, and stuff. I earned me some Pesos.
My career has been an inch at a time.
It's very tricky to throw a morally flexible character onto the screen and have an audience empathize. It's always an exercise in restraint.
It was comical because you're at a firing range, all these people are so seriously shooting their little guns.
A nicely fitted two-button suit is the best thing any guy can have. Guys are lucky: We can wear a suit over and over, just with different shirts and ties.
I worked as a busboy in real life. I have some calluses that are not just from snacking at the actors' craft service table,
You know... I think I'm getting a little coldsore come on... so maybe we shouldn't do this for 3 to 6 weeks?
I don't know where this is coming from; I've never played 'the game,' ... I did hear rumblings that some of those guys were out there, you know, flashing their gear. Whatever turns your crank, that's what I say.
My foot peg just clipped him a bit. I'm not worried about his car - it was like, I was a foot peg away from death. But all's well that ends well. I'm still alive
We talked to everyone to work the problem and tried to stay calm and cool. It feels good to have something you train so long for go well. You just never think this is going to happen to you.
