he didn't have to hound him too much, jesse is a big fan of his previous work! i'm still working him out in my head, but i imagine him to be borderline method on set to keep his head in the game. he's capable of being the actor a director needs depending on their directing style. need someone who just does their job? you've got it. want a more collaborative approach, which is his preference, you've got it. there are rumors he can be a jerk to the crew, but it's quite the opposite as he's constantly praising them for their hard work and knows his job would be impossible without them. it stems from once on set where he strongly encouraged lmao a production assistant to shut their mouth because they wouldn't stop whispering during taping and the media ran with it. so the short of it is that he shows up to give his absolute best and is very adaptable.
