Working with Jennifer Garner and the rest of the cast
What first drew you to this project?
It was a perfect storm of awesome elements.
It was an incredible assembly of artistic minds behind and in front of the camera.
Then it was a great character.
How did you feel like your character, Jules, compared to characters you’ve played in the past?
That’s a good question.
What I love about Jules is she’s very sharp.
Also, she’s a great friend, and I was lucky that they fleshed Jules out more.
It was easy to fall into the dynamic of this friendship very quickly.
It was effortless to do with Jennifer and a blast to create.
What was it like working with her and the rest of the cast?
I was like, “Yeah, Josh!”
It was an incredibly accomplished cast of actors doing incredible work.
Did you read the book first or the series?
I read the series first because, sadly, I don’t have a lot of time forrecreational reading.
I found out about the series and then went back to the source material.
No, I was surprised.
People who love the book will still love how twisty the series is.
But for people who haven’t read the book, they’re going to be gobsmacked.
It’s such a rich, layered, lush storyline.
There are twists on twists on twists.
