Did you come up with the look of your character before the show began?
I didn’t have this look at the time I was cast, but I was very clear with the creators and the makeup department that I didn’t want them to make me look pretty. I wanted to grow out the beard, and I wanted to be dirty.
Do you feel more comfortable with Cullen's look, or when you’re clean-shaven in a movie like Safe? I didn’t recognize you!
Thank you—that’s a big compliment. I try not to think too much about how to present myself. Whatever the next job is, I go in and let them do whatever they feel they need to do to me. I haven’t paid for a haircut in four years.
