00:00But what has Karmie meant to you, just diving into all of his complexities

00:04and the way that he really showcases masculinity and all of its facets?

00:10Yeah, I don't know. I don't know how often I think or, like,

00:13connect him with masculinity necessarily, but I, you know,

00:18there are things I admire about him and I feel like I want to steal from him.

00:23I think his sort of, like, focus and determination and follow-through

00:29and a certain amount of obsession is something that I would like to borrow for my life.

00:37But I think in things I've learned is sort of, you know,

00:42sort of what I think I was trying to explain when I accepted the award,

00:46which is just, like, these things.

00:49He has such a difficult time extending himself, I think,

00:53and communicating and reaching out to other people.

00:56And I think during the time I've been playing Karmie,

00:59I've looked at myself and tried to sort of, I think, be more available

01:07to people sort of seeing where Karmie has sort of fallen at times.

01:13Yeah.

01:14All right, next question. I see a hand in the front right here on the far side.

01:20Hello.

01:23Hi, Vincent from NDYA.

01:24Hey.

01:25So I wanted to ask you,

01:26I feel like season two really showcased a lot for the cast as a whole

01:29and now some of them are winning their awards for the first time.

01:32Yeah.

01:32Joining the ranks of you and Io and Eben.

01:34So what's it like seeing the rest of your cast get their Oates?

01:38So beautiful.

01:38It was really my fit, like, the fact that, I mean, well, you know,

01:44Jamie and Bernthal won last weekend and that was so beautiful.

01:48Getting to see Liza, I was, you know, I was backstage

01:53and I got to go on the wings and watch her accept.

01:57And that was just the greatest.

02:00Lionel's nomination, so massive.

02:04Everybody does such beautiful work on this show.

02:06And yeah, to see them recognized, it just, it makes me so happy and so proud.

02:13I just love, I love them. I love the show.

02:15Cool. Congrats.

02:17All right. Another question in the room, please.

02:20Um, yep.

02:22Let's go with the red shirt and the second row.

02:26Congratulations.

02:27Clearly this has changed your life yet again.

02:31And you mentioned that on stage.

02:33You were, you played Cary von Erich in the past

02:37and in the future you're playing Bruce Springsteen.

02:40Yeah.

02:41So can you share anything of that process?

02:44The singing, the just getting into Bruce

02:48and anything else you'd like to say about that?

02:51Yeah, I mean, I'm really, I'm really, I mean, I'm so excited to start this thing.

02:56We're getting started pretty soon.

02:58You know, I don't want to talk about it too much.

03:00It feels like wrong before kind of getting there and starting the thing.

03:06But I can say I've got a really beautiful team of people, you know, helping me.

03:12Um, and, and Bruce has been really, uh, like lovely and, and, and supportive, um,

03:20and available, which has made this whole process, I think, just an extra joy that we have his

03:26support and, um, and John Landau, his, his manager support who has, uh, uh, you know,

03:31a large role in, in, in the film, um, as well.

03:35So I feel, uh, I feel really lucky and, uh, and yeah, we're, uh, we're getting there.
