Mike Manning Interview | Beyond the Gates, Teen Wolf, Cloud 9 & His Acting Journey | 3 Geeks Podcast

from 3 Geeks Podcast

The 3 Geeks Podcast sits down with actor, producer, and Emmy-nominated performer Mike Manning for an in-depth conversation about his journey through the entertainment industry. Mike opens up about making the transition from reality television to scripted TV, proving himself as an actor, and landing his big break in Disney's Cloud 9. We also talk about his approach to playing characters who aren't always considered the "good guy" and finding the humanity in complicated characters. Mike shares stories from his time on Teen Wolf, including getting his ass kicked by the original Johnny Cage, Linden Ashby. We also discuss the movies that inspired Mike to become a producer, why using your platform for good is so important, his experience working in daytime television, and his record-breaking Daytime Emmy nominations for Beyond the Gates, a groundbreaking soap that continues to challenge the traditional expectations of daytime television. It's a wide-ranging conversation about acting, producing, television, finding your place in Hollywood, and using your career to make a difference.
