As I sat down for an exciting chat with Variety to drum up buzz for my forthcoming political thriller series, “Paradise,” I shared a fascinating tidbit about a missed opportunity in the superhero realm that nearly became part of my illustrious acting journey. Reflecting on the offer, I mused, “The part was intriguingly wicked, so it held quite an allure.” Alas, I didn’t disclose which villainous character from the renowned superhero series was up for grabs, but I did share some intriguing hints about who I might have portrayed. Contrary to speculation, I wasn’t being considered for one of the show’s iconic, ongoing characters. Instead, I was presented with a chance to don the cloak of villainy for a limited-run story arc.
