Matt Barr on Walker: Independence, Being Mentored by Kevin Costner, & Being a Fan of Chris Stapleton

Matt Barr drops by Kyle Meredith With… to talk about Walker: Independence, which has him playing Hoyt Rawlins, the same-named great-grandfather of his character from Walker. The Texas-born actor tells us about the importance of diversity and inclusion on the series, his character’s emotional journey, and having Kevin Costner as a mentor when they worked together on Hatfields & McCoys. Barr also talks about the show’s modern-era soundtrack and his own fandom for Chris Stapleton, what keeps fans so interested in his 2009 series Harper’s Island, and why he’d like to see season two of Independence incorporate a treasure hunt.Listen to Matt Barr chat about Walker: Independence and even more in the new episode above, or watch the chat via YouTube.
