So

I took the directions, totally changed my whole – performance to suit this kind of two dimensional thing that I thought they were looking for, because I wanted the job, and then didn't get the role, but got asked to do like episode eight of that first season.

And as a, as another character that I played, you know, had all these things, but I played it my way.

And I was doing this show.

And then Andy Whitfield, who's passed now, bless him, came on, and I had a scene with him, and he started acting.

and he was vulnerable and he was afraid and he was super humble and just this beautiful guy stepping up to be this hero and it was everything that i had imagined was the right thing to do and i went oh my god i was right and who am i to ever listen to anyone again and from that moment i just I don't care what anyone else thinks.

I'm going to do my truth for whatever this role is, whatever this part is.

And I guess my question is like, how How do you stay afloat in those moments?
