What have we learned during that time?

That Kendall hasan incredible acting (home on the) range?

Or that Tom givesthe best forehead smooches to Cousin Greg?

In an interview withVanity Fair, Macfadyen discusses his acting approach compared toStrongsThe New Yorkerprofile.

You think of J. Smith-Cameron and Alan Ruck, who are fucking extraordinary actors.

[Strong] is not the main event.

Macfadyen continues to describe how he transforms intoTom Wambsganswithout terrifying anybody in the process.

Because Ive made the imaginative leap.

Because thats my job.

Its not about what Im feeling or what state Ive got myself in before, or any of that.

Thats not to say thats wrong.

Thats just not useful.

While Macfadyen might not have the same intense approach as Strong,hes a Roy through and through.

And if you dont like it,there are plenty of ways to express that.
