How did you get the role?
There’s a lot of unknown elements to getting a role. I kind of like that. Some things are better off not known. I did a few auditions, got the call and got the blessing. Movie Magic.

The series follows Eleanor (Kristen Bell), a recently deceased woman who wakes up in the afterlife and is sent by Michael (Ted Danson) to The Good Place, a heaven-like utopia, in reward for her righteous life. You’re playing Chris, who becomes Eleanor’s new soulmate after Michael erases her memory in the season one finale.
Chris Baker is a great guy. “Jacked” of all trades. Soulmate, mailman, avid gym goer, demon?…
