David Schwimmer on diversity and inclusion in Hollywood: 'I think the key is really leveling the playing field so more writers and more creators of color have more opportunities — and also are paid the same as their white counterparts.'
We also wanted to play with the culture clash between Britain and America. It's funny watching our two countries try and deal with things together.: I was really excited to play a guy like this because I thought there was a wonderful kind of challenge in it, in that he's not the most likable on paper.
That's only part of why I was so excited to do this show. The other half, frankly, was just to work with Nick, who I think is a major talent, both as an actor and writer. There's quite a high gag rate, but there's physical comedy in there and more nuanced, naturalistic stuff. It's an amalgamation of those things.
There's a lot of work to do in the industry — TV, film and theater. It's more about providing opportunities across the board than, necessarily, the kind of show that's being produced.
