Here is an excerpt from the interview:
Ellis couldn’t be less like Lafayette; the actor is humble and seems flummoxed when his status as a fan favorite is brought up.
“I don’t understand that, maybe because I’m so critical” of his performance, said Ellis, who watches each episode 20 times in order to critique his acting. But the attention is “very flattering,” he adds.
So what’s next for Lafayette? Ellis says he doesn’t usually talk to the show’s writers about what’s coming for his character, though he will mention to executive producer Alan Ball one idea he has for Season 3, which begins production in December. He wants Lafayette to get some flashback scenes with his mother.
“There are so many lines about how his mother treated [Lafayette],” Ellis said. “It would be nice if we found out in the flashbacks that she was a vampire.”
