What is For Heaven’s Sake about?
“It’s with Florence Henderson and I played her son-in-law. It was the story about a grandmother and a granddaughter. The grandmother passes and goes to heaven and the granddaughter wants to follow her. And I play the father of the granddaughter.
Florence Henderson is such a beautiful actress. She convinces the granddaughter to stay on earth and live an amazing life. I don’t know what’s happening with that right now.”
It sounds really sweet.
“It’s such a great story.”
You’re really getting to work with some of the great women of Hollywood, aren’t you?
“Yeah, what’s that about? I feel like someone should just point at me and say, ‘Wait! An imposter – get him!’”
How about playing a father? Are you ready for that or do you feel you’re still too young to be playing a father?
“No. I’ve always loved children. I did a little movie [where] I played Ken Kesey and I remember to do the research I had to read all of his novels and stuff. I talked to people that knew him and they said that the end of his life, he enjoyed hanging out with children even more than adults. I think that spirit that’s in children is really very appealing to me too, the openness.”
Have you noticed a big difference between film and television?
“Yeah. As an actor you get a little bit more time in film. In film, the pauses are more forgiving. They let you play more in the different colors of the scene. Television just works a little bit faster.”
