Are you happy with the way Robin’s journey ended?
In all honestly, no, I wouldn’t say that I was. I felt like it was an abrupt end; I didn’t feel the character had any development this year and wasn’t really written for. That was disappointing for people who liked Robin Hood and liked him and Regina together. But I’m a company man and when you’re an actor, you have to understand that our job is to serve the writing. I write myself and I understand how important it is to be true to what the writer’s vision is. In all honestly, I don’t feel that a character like Robin Hood got the development that he could have had. But I respect the way the guys want to run their show. You either have to be on board or not. I’m happy to serve the writers.
Just tell the truth Sean….that’s the best thing to do! Michael Socha had the same issues with Adam and Eddy, and the mere fact actors are coming forth voicing their true opinions now about this show and it’s runners should be a forewarning to anyone before they hitch onto this bandwagon.
As a writer, what do you hope happens next for Regina?
As a writer, you hope the Regina character stays good and stays a hero and doesn’t let this tragedy turn her back to a dark place. But as a viewer of the show, maybe Regina going dark and being evil again gives them their Evil Queen back — she’s an iconic character on the show and to be honest with you, I leave the speculation to the fans and the writing to the writers.
I get the oddest feeling that he has to say he hopes Regina stays good, but deep down, he really wants her to go postal on Storybrooke! That’s a wish flooding twitter right now, everyone wants the Evil Queen to set it off.
What’s next for you?
I’m taking some time off to be a dad. There’s a couple projects on the horizon I’m excited about. They’re very different options and trajectories. We’re talking about where it’s best for me to go. I have the luxury of time to make the choice and absorb everything that’s happened and reflect on how great the fans have been to me. I’m always going to be grateful to them for their passion and dedication.
Just do you and be happy Sean! Michael Raymond James left this crap too, and is on a roll! Follow his lead!
