That’s how I came into Season 2.īANKS: I was like, “Okay, so who is he gonna be staying with?” I figured he might be staying with Jazz, so when I found that out, I was like, “Okay, I got that right.” I knew he would explore himself outside of L.A. You have to take some of those punches, just to know how they feel, so that you know for the next time and can be prepared for that. You learn how it feels to constantly do this every day, and then go home knowing you have to do it again the next right.
You learn how it feels when you wake up at five and you leave the day at 6pm.
What was it like to go into Season 2 with more knowledge of who you are, as an actor, and how to do all of that? Did completing the first season inform the second season, in a different way for you than it did before?īANKS: Yeah, for sure. That’s who I wanna be, and that’s who I’ve been for the past two years. I always wanna absolutely be on top of my game, in a way that’s shocking for people so they never have to worry about whether I know my stuff. Being prepared is one of the things that I always want to be known for in this industry. There are people who show up three hours before I do, and leave two hours after, so it’s just about leaving my problems at the door and showing up ready to work. BANKS: An attitude of gratitude and just really showing up with great energy, every day.
