From "Orange Is The New Black" and "Severance" to "Spider-Man:Homecoming" and "Inez & Doug & Kira," Michael Chernus has been consistently delivering performances that place him as one of the most cherished character actors working today. His latest happens to be the first time he's staring in a television series—"Devil In Disguise: John Wayne Gacy"—and it's bringing him some of the best reviews of his career. On this epic episode, he talks about the freedom he felt in knowing he would never truly know that character, and why it took every tool in his "toolkit" to depict him. He takes us back to his early days at Juilliard, generously dives deep into the roots of his acting process, gives us an honest depiction of the lessons he's learned about what it takes to do this work well, talks about the importance of being in service of the larger production, explains why he likes being directed, lays out the problem with "denying what's happening in the room," makes a case for making bold choices, and much much more! Back To One is the in-depth, no-nonsense, actors-on-acting podcast from  Filmmaker Magazine. In each episode, host Peter Rinaldi invites one working actor to do a deep dive into their unique process, psychology, and approach to the craft.  Follow Back To One on Instagram
