They’re all kinda aspects of my personality. I’ve got an inner Janet operating pretty much 24/7, though I don’t let her out that often. But on a day-to-day basis I would say I channel a whole lot of Julia. I did my time as Quentin as a teenager/twentysomething but I like to think I’ve evolved some since then.

I would request reshoots on my cameo. Didn’t feel I completely nailed it.

I can remember flagging that plot point with a question about the respective power levels, niffin vs. cacodemon. But you know it’s not an exact science. Every cacodemon has his/her/its good days, and Alice was just a newborn niffin. Plus who knows future developments may complicate our understanding of what just…

It’s a good question. And the truth is ... there weren’t really any ground rules. That I was aware of. I mean the ground rules were/are: mutual respect and good faith and a lot of conversation and transparency. But at the end of the day, they gave me money, and I gave them the books.

OK I’m going for the advanced ‘unfiltered’ setting here so am prepared for the hardballs or curveballs or whatever they’re called.
