Actor Michael O'Neill on Acting

from A Closer Look with Pam Atherton Hosted by A Closer Look with Pam Atherton

He's one of the most respected character actors in Hollywood, taking a one-day stint on The West Wing and turning into a 6-season job. MIchael O'Neill is one of those actors you see on the TV or movie screen and say "Oh, THAT guy!" We have a delightful chat talking about the very unusual way he was "discovered," what his two requirements were before he took on the part of the crazed gunman on Gray's Anatomy, and how he still lives with the insecurity of the acting business. Plus... his sex scene in Rectify, and how he didn't recognize Matthew McConaughey on the set of The Dallas Buyer's Club movie. You will LOVE this guy!
