Theo Rossi joins Tatyana Arrington for a candid conversation about Sons of Anarchy, The Penguin, surviving more than two decades in Hollywood, and why he still sees himself as an underdog.
Theo reflects on playing Juice Ortiz and being part of an era of television when audiences spent years growing alongside their favorite characters. He shares why he believes Hollywood has become increasingly disconnected from its audience, how Emily the Criminal briefly changed the industry's perception of him, and why he's grateful his opportunity to become a leading man came later in his career.
He also gets into the importance of taking creative risks, why actors becoming too recognizable can work against their performances, and why Hollywood desperately needs a romantic comedy comeback.
Plus, Theo takes us inside Come With Me, his new film with Ron Perlman, and explains why its story about media, influence and a seemingly ordinary man's transformation feels especially relevant today.
From Sons of Anarchy and The Penguin to Emily the Criminal, Come With Me and what's next, this is Theo Rossi on Hollywood, longevity and making art that actually makes people feel something.
