ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: How much actual walking did shooting the episode involve?
BRIAN COX:A fair amount but, of course, this is what slightly annoys me.
I walk all the time!
I don’t have any problem walking.
But actually, the truth of the matter is, I would have no difficulty whatsoever.
I didn’t mean to annoy you with the question.
The last thing I want to do is piss off the original Hannibal Lecter!
[Laughs] No, I’m not pissed off.
It’s just fact!
[Laughs] He’ll have some kind of ailment.
But it’s fine.
It’s legitimate and it works in the context.
But then I’m a lot younger than Logan, so that’s probably why.
Logan and Kendall have this icy, rancorous series of confrontations during the episode.
What can you tell us about shooting that?
Well, you know, Jeremy has what he calls his process, which I respect.
He completely inhabits the world.
There’s no question it works for him.
Actually, we were surprisingly more social than we’d been on previous episodes or even subsequent episodes.
We had a good time.
What was it like working with Adrien Brody?
He’s a wonderful actor and he just dives straight in.
I’m hoping that maybe we’ll find a way to get him back.
