I Think The Glue That Held Fringe

I'm Truly Grateful To The Writers Of Fringe For Giving Me That Because, Over The Years, When I've Spoken About The Character With Them, I've Always Felt That This Would Be The Perfect Way To End And Complete His Journey, And To Complete The Journey Of This Series, And They Gave It To Me.

Walter Is Incredibly Complex. I Do A Lot Of Thinking About The Work I Do, And Try To Get The Rhythms Of Scenes.

It Was Wonderful To Be Able To Play A Character Who Had So Many Colors And Who Was Able To Play Comedy, To Play Incredibly Vulnerable, Which He Did A Lot Of The Time, To Play The Love Story, And To Play The Relationship With The Son, Which Is Quite Unusual. That's A Gift To Me, As An Actor.

I Remember When I Read Walter, For Example, Six Years Ago Now, I Said, "this Is The Role For Me." I Said That To My Family. There Was Something There That I Knew Was Absolutely Right, And That Was Just Based On The Character. That's When Gut Instinct Comes Into Play. I Know There Are Certain Things I Won't Do.

I'd Never Done Anything That Required A Five-year Commitment. To Build A Show That Seems To Have Kept The Imagination Of The World So Much Was A Bit Otherworldly.
