On a new episode of Still Watching, 'The Sympathizer' star Hoa Xuande chats about his nine-month audition, falling in love with Sandra Oh, and acting opposite multiple Robert Downey Jr.’s.
“They’ve got guns, they run around, they blow things up. They’re like the strong man and all that sort of stuff,” Xuande told VF’s Still Watching podcast. “To play this role, I actually thought it was more important to get to the heart of the character—what motivates him, what drives him, what his psychology was. I thought that was more interesting.
I’m not falling in love with Sandra Oh . There was a couple of times on set where I remember director Park and Don McKellar, the other showrunner, would have to come up to me and be like, ‘Just remember The Captain,’ you know? He’s a strong man and he has to hide a lot of his own, you know, he has to hide a lot of himself. And I was like, ‘Yes, yes, of course. Sorry, the fanboy in me is coming out and I need to check that.
