I think we need great artists making great work - women, men, whoever. I think what's great about TV now is there are so many different platforms that you can make really specific, specialized content. I wouldn't have gotten this part because I'm not really considered a "traditional romantic lead," so I created it for myself.

When you're doing something where you really like the material, it doesn't matter what medium it's in.

I guess I'm a workaholic!

I've been looking to do TV for a while. I've always done guest starring stuff. I've done a couple of multi-episode arcs, and I've always loved the experience.

I don't come from money.

I mean, I sing. But I don't think I'm a good enough singer to do any kind of musical.

I went through an awkward adolescence and had braces.
