“Brian is an archetypal character, a bit like Don Juan, which is how I play him. He's a blast to play. He believes unapologetically in his freedom. He holds nothing back. Something I'm learning is, you can't hate the character you play. If I think my character is an asshole, that's all that will come across. He is drawn in an extreme way, but that doesn't mean he's not a person.” IfsThinkingWayBelieveMeanPersonsPlayCharacterHateBitsExtremesBlastBrianDon JuanJuan Author:Gale Harold
“I'm straight, but the character was too important to me to muddle his world with my private life. As a nobody, I got away with that deflection. I think it may have helped to introduce Brian as a believable gay man. Maybe not. However it played, it's been out of my hands for a long time.” ThinkingMenWorldMayLongImportantCharacterHandsGayLong TimeIntroducingPrivate LifeGay MenBrianBelievableMuddleDeflection Author:Gale Harold
