Article content material continued

No, it isn’t. Did realizing you have been leaving influence your performances in any respect? I assumed you probably did a few of your most nuanced, finest work this yr — particularly throughout your ultimate scenes.

I’ve all the time tried to offer my finest work, Nelson! Not positive what you’re getting at! [Laughs] To be sincere, I all the time choose to not play the battle of the scene. It could be difficult in daytime … I feel Julian knew he was dying, however taking part in that isn’t as efficient, I feel. He’s making an attempt to stay. The solely factor I needed I had performed in hindsight is possibly whispered Alexis’s title as he was strolling away from Sonny after being shot. Like, now he is aware of he’s lifeless and all he can take into consideration is Alexis and that he’ll by no means see her once more. That might not have gone over properly on the day, nevertheless it additionally might have. Frank might have thought that would have been a good suggestion. We’ll by no means know.

Who is Nancy Lee Grahn going to bitch about now?

Nancy was all the time in our ‘Julexis corner’. She’s been on the present a very long time and she or he is aware of her followers. She’s all the time been an asset to me. So I don’t begrudge her a number of the stuff she worries about. I feel we each tried our greatest to save lots of the pairing inside the parameters that got to us by the earlier writing regime. But after that, it’s out of our palms.

Were you shocked when Julian put a knife to Alexis’ throat? Character-assassination alert!

Wow. I hadn’t actually thought of it from that perspective. Sounds such as you’re saying they deliberately did that. [Hmmm…]. I must be fairly considerate about that. As I mentioned earlier, I’m probably not a paranoid individual. But in hindsight, after seeing everybody’s shock and disgust concerning the exit, chances are you’ll be on to one thing. But, I’ll by no means know and I’m not curious sufficient to ask round. [Laughs]. I all the time choose to look ahead. But, ya, it does look like they made positive to slam the door tight behind me and, from a private view, it did harm just a little. It didn’t appear to matter how well-liked the Julexis pairing was, or how well-liked Julian was. If you consider it, it’s fairly outstanding contemplating how all the opposite characters in PC simply shat on him your entire time.
