EW Interview
In real life, I would think that patients would ask a guy like Sean every day, “What’s wrong with you?” But you can’t keep doing that, right?
Yeah. There are certain things that may happen all the time. What I liked about the [gamer] is that he has dealt with autistic people in his life. I think the gaming world has more than its fair share of people with autism. He embraces them and thinks they are great. [With stories like that] we don’t have to go to that well and have [Sean] explain that over and over again every week.
Freddie Highmore is so believable. Do you have to give him any notes at this point, or is he just off and running, all on his own?
He is pretty much off and running, all on his own. We continue to talk regularly, and the directors contribute stuff. But he is so fantastic. He understands this character and he works very hard and is very insightful. He’s a pleasure to work with.
