The 34-year-old actor responded to the news in an interview with PopCulture.com, sharing that he’s interested in “if the vibe changes.”
“We’ll see if we get to dive more or less into Maggie and OA’s relationship and our personal lives. I think, being six seasons in, we’ve definitely earned the ability to open up and to start to see more of that side of our characters, so I’m excited that, hopefully, we get to dive deeper into our personal lives,” he continued.
About the show being renewed for three more seasons, he said, “The validation that it gives to the entire machine, the crew, the cast, the people that wake up every morning at 3 a.m. and somehow show up every day with a smile on their face. It’s just really nice to see that this group of people, the work that this group of people has done has been validated by the network and by the audience.” He also called it “extremely humbling and extremely exciting.”
