Of The Company You Keep On Abc
Q: How did you get into the mindset of con artist Charlie in “The Company You Keep”?
A: Charlie’s Charlie. He’s kind of a normal guy, very simple in how he looks at the world. You know, he’s not really incredibly complicated. He’s there for his family, he looks out for his family, he loves his family. He wants a romantic partner himself. In the pilot, we discover he got conned himself by his fiancee. But then when he straps on the con and whatever it is the family is working on, he always has to be three or four steps ahead. So it’s bigger than a chess match with these characters that he’s playing.
And I think as an actor, the dynamic between that when I’m trying to play a gunrunner or play a photo assistant or play someone in the art world, you kind of have to blend in in a way that the mechanism is unnoticed to the people in that world. It’s got to be seamless. So as an actor, it’s challenging to just week to week, live in these cons and create these characters that are extensions of who Charlie is. So it’s interesting, it’s fun, it’s been a blast.
Q: So you’re an actor who’s playing a character through another character.
A: (Laughs) Yeah, I’m an actor who’s playing a character who’s playing several characters. It’s schizophrenic, yeah. ... The interesting part is we do have a moment ... where Charlie’s in the world as Charlie with Emma but then he’s confronted with somebody from the con world who knows him as a European gunrunner who’s got a slight accent. So it’s doing that dance and making sure that there’s a way to make it believable that the character isn’t so off center that if he is with people that don’t know this con character, he can kind of slide in and out of it. That’s the challenge.
