I trust him as an actor to make his own decisions as Mike Hanlon, but then just giving him how I viewed Mike, and just giving him little pointers of how I think Mike would act.
He asked me questions on, ‘Okay, how do you think about this?’ and ‘How do you think Mike would play this?’
But meeting him in person did give me a lot of peace and solace that the film was in good hands.
I felt like Isaiah is the perfect match for Older Mike Hanlon.
