For an actor to go to work every day is an extreme blessing.

I'm the furthest thing away from a cop.

Netflix is in every country except China and North Korea. Enough people have seen the show. I mean, I'm in Patagonia and people recognize the show [ Narcos].

I don't know if you've ever seen this film called Elite Squad, which, actually Wagner [Moura] is the one narrating that. José Padilha, one of creators of our show, that's where the style comes from. It has a heavy narrator. But I thought about it a lot. You [the viewers] have to work for the show, unless you're bilingual. It's a really aggressive type of filming, it's engaging, you've got to read.

I have a company where I'm trying to get projects off the ground. Me and my partner Madeleine Sackler, we just shot our first feature in a maximum security prison where about 95% of the cast were incarcerated men. We're editing that and there's a doc going with it.

You don't really have to dress a ton of actors. You don't really have to spend a bunch of money lining up extras to look the time period.

To go to work every day for two years, that was life changing.
