Sebastian Stan on ‘Losing Sleep’ Over Not Resembling Donald Trump, ‘That’ Scene From ‘The Apprentice’ and ‘F—ing Hard’ Action Movies: ‘Tom Cruise Is Not a Normal Person’


Sebastian Stan on ‘losing sleep’ over not looking like Donald Trump, controversial scene in ‘The Apprentice’ and action movies.

When he first read the script, written by Gabriel Sherman and depicting Trump’s friendship with infamous attorney Roy Cohn, Stan went as far as “crossing out the names of the characters.” It wasn’t until coming across a “basement full of VHS tapes” in the U.S. and going to an acting camp “after years of wanting to be an astronaut” that things changed, leading to collaborations with such filmmakers as Ridley Scott, Darren Aronofsky or Soderbergh. Stan recently starred in “A Different Man,” scoring an award at Berlinale – “An important step in my journey” – but as proven in Zurich, some fans never forgot his earlier roles either, including a lengthy stint on “Gossip Girl” as a troublemaking heartthrob.
