“I think as somebody who’s relatively new to maybe this opportunity, and this scale and size and quality of a production, having François as obviously a more senior actor, both in age, as well as experience, it was great,” Robbie shared with Scott Conway for Forbes. “Honestly, I think there were a couple of times where he and I would have a conversation in-between takes, where I would open up to him or I was thinking of something in my mind. I didn’t necessarily have the tools in my toolbox to bring that forward and François would say exactly what I was thinking.”
“I think as an artist, you hope to absorb as much as you can in every production and every experience, to kind of add to your toolbox, to later on be able to pass these experiences onto other newer actors. It was just a great opportunity,” he added.
As for season two and the future of Kip and Scott, aka Skip, in the show, Robbie is hopeful to return and continue telling their story.
“I trust in whatever Jacob [Tierney]‘s vision is. I think he’s curated such a great universe already. Whatever he chooses to do, I trust is the best choice,” the actor shared. “Outside of that, I would love to continue to deliver more ‘Skip’ and more Kip and Scott stuff to the part of the fandom that does want to see more of that. I don’t really know in what way that would be, but I do think that there’s a lot of character arc to explore after this moment.”
“Of course, we’re kind of just at the top of the rollercoaster before they ride into sunset,” Robbie continues. “I think both of these characters are kind of left off in an interesting way, and I think it would be interesting to see how Scott deals with all this and how Kip deals with all this. I think it’s kind of relevant to how we’re all kind of dealing with this level of spotlight right now. I think it would be interesting to bring some of that into this world, as well.”
