Adam: It all revolves around the family and friends of Ed Wellington the third, the guy who gets murdered.

Sajar: What’s your favorite thing about Tony Blackwell?

Adam: He’s just really fun to play and I get to be over the top. I also play a new type of character. I’m usually the “bad guy” so this is different.
