“I was 30 when I took the role.
I’m going to be 39 this year.
Even though the show, the way it came out, it’s actually been closer to seven years.
For me, it’s like my 30s,” he said.
“I became a father while I was on this show.
I only got married just before I took the role.
So I’ve grown a lot andI’ve grown with Joe in a strange way.”
What is fascinating aboutBadgley’s connection to Joeis how the actor learned what it means to be a man.
And I don’t mean the obvious things like, ‘Oh, don’t murder.
That’s bad.’
That’s very clear."
Badgley shared that he saw Joe in a way that is kind of fascinating.
“That was vital to his identity.
So vital that he creates danger that he needs to protect people from.
That is a really interesting phenomenon,” he went on to say.
“That happens in smaller ways, in subtler ways.
Badgley ended his comment by saying that the show is more than just Joe Goldberg being a serial killer.
“This show is actually more about that than it’s about a killer.
It’s more about what we think about love, what is true love.”
