Well, no more of that.

Here, at last, is Grant unchained!

They said, Oh, no, no hes guilty.

And I said, Great!

Because its fun to be a killer sociopath narcissist.

They then went away and wrote the subsequent four episodes.

They all said, Well, its not really clear.

And I got paranoid.

Thats why Im here.

I was going through your filmography trying to remember if youve ever killed someone on-camera before.

Was this a first?Its a good point!

I should know the answer!

I dont think Ihavekilled anyone.

But I very much enjoyed it, and Id like to do a lot more.

You cited Donald Trump, and that was even before the election!

That was interesting from a character point of view.

Are you still enjoying it?

But they are fun.

Any actor would say the same: The bad guys the fun guy.

Everything else is acting for him.

Thats the real man, and that was fun.

When did that happen in the course of the whole shoot?Alarmingly early.

Maybe the first week.

Poor Matilda [De Angelis, who played Elena].

Shes quite a star in Italy, but this was her first time in America.

She was such a good sport, but it cant have been easy or pleasant.

Do you know right now what you might do next?Im doing a thing tomorrow, actually.

Charlie Brooker [the creator ofBlack Mirror] has written a mockumentary about 2020.

Its for Netflix, and I am a historian whos being interviewed about the year.

Im pretty repellent, actually!

And youll like my wig.
