FX has another great show on their hands in the new boxing drama, Lights Out.
The show stars veteran character actor Holt McCallany as Patrick “Lights” Leary, an aging former heavyweight champion of the world. Holt’s been acting for 20 years working with some of the best directors around; David Fincher, David O. Russell, Lawrence Kasdan, Brian De Palma. His films have included Three Kings, Fight Club and many others.
This is his first opportunity at headlining a show and I have to say, he is absolutely wonderful.
I had a chance to speak to Holt and executive producer Warren Leight on a conference call where they talked about the show, his training regimen and his advice to actors.
For the full interview, click the audio link above or download from iTunes.
Holt, how did you get involved? What was it about the role that said, “I must do this?...
