HW: You must have the fanboys in your pocket. What have you seen about yourself online?
SB: I love to see fan’s artwork. That’s my favorite…I have to say just for my own ego it’s funny to see the pictures they draw of Liz and usually I look like some form of Judy Garland. It is so weird. In the later years, they all look like a really old Judy Garland [laughs].
HW: I’ve heard that Guillermo casts based on their energy. Why do you think he cast you for this role?
SB: He saw me in a film, I think it was Storytelling and I heard that he saw some sadness in my eyes that he knew was in Liz. You know Liz had gone through something really tragic. So yeah, I think he cast us as we were.
