It’s so clear he is the most alike his character out of any of the cast. Not that he’s a prick, but his mannerisms and inability to take compliments while deflecting with humor are indistinguishable from how he plays Roman.

He literally IS a prick. Unfortunately.

I feel like the chair thing is because he’s short and small, if he sat normally, he’d be more overshadowed by the people he’s with, but comfortably sitting in eccentric ways means that the rules don’t apply to him, which makes his status more obvious.

Eres un excelente actor, tienes una personalidad que atrapa, poderosa manera de fusionarte con el personaje, eres el ideal para las obras que escribe mi hijo, tiene tu esencia , tu ritmo, tu visión. Tan lejos de los mortales y tan cerca de los dioses que solo podemos admirar tu trabajo en lo que tocas y realizas. Seria un placer conocerte y enseñarte de lo que un escritor mexicano puede hacer. Tal vez quizá por que no. Que siempre encuentres proyectos que te lleven a ser uno de los grandes. Sophie.

Jeremy Strong is very Kendall like… his mannerisms and his way of speaking is just like Kendall. Brian Cox is very, very Logan lol and Kieran is very, very Roman.

@rpfcreates4476 Жыл бұрын

Kendall’s rap fixation and hyper attitude using buzzy terms and being bossy is definitely his “Roman side” coming out. I bet it would be like that just turned up to ten. Love the way it came together though because he seems like the older brother. Kendall is an interesting character who clearly has some of his father in him but also has his own style.
