Though his career has just begun, Paul Mescal sees a throughline in his work so far—joking that maybe his niche is 'sad, repressed men.'

Brian is introduced as a charming and dedicated son who had some previous issues with his father but has returned to hopefully relaunch the family’s oyster business. Mescal says the toughest part of the role was “not judging Brian. It’s like a real head fuck when you’re upset for him…I always viewed it like Brian has got to see himself as the victim of the story for it to be interesting. So that was hard.

If there’s a through line in Mescal’s work so far, it’s creating characters who are a bit unknowable. “I’m definitely attracted to, in a very bold sense, characters that think and don’t say, or feel and don’t say. I think that’s also interesting to watch.I think it leaves room for an audience to project something onto them,” he says.

For now, Mescal says he’s going to focus on independent film and signing on to projects that he’s passionate about. He has already wrapped work on a modern reimagining ofin which he plays male lead Aidan, and has a film lined up to shoot this summer that he can't quite talk about yet. He then has “another thing” also shooting later this year. It’s not a film, but he can’t talk about that yet either.
