Mandy Moore Said ‘This Is Us’ Co-Star Ron Cephas Jones Had An “Intrinsic Connection” To His Character: “He Was Suffering”


Mandy Moore is remembering his This Is Us co-star Ron Cephas Jones and the "intrinsic connection" he had to his role on the television series.

“It feels like all these beautiful pieces of life are flying all around me and I’m trying to catch them,” Moore read the line from the script of what William told Olivia. Moore recalled filming a hiking scene with Jones and added, “He was suffering and it was really hard for him to breathe and I remember him sitting was scripted. But also because he genuinely needed to do that, it really brought home knowing what was actually happening in real time in those moments while we were shooting this show and this season.”
