Perri Nemiroff welcomes Logan Marshall-Green to Collider Forces! In this deep-dive, career-spanning interview, Logan discusses his role as Melanthius in Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey, and loads more.In a candid and exclusive conversation, Logan reveals the story of why he actually said "no" to his initial callback audition for Nolan's film — and the twist of fate that landed him in Italy with only 48 hours' notice to join the star-studded cast. He opens up about his first day on set throwing John Leguizamo to the ground, adapting fight choreography on the fly with Tom Holland, and the symbolic craft details that defined his performance.Logan also takes us through his career-defining philosophy on the power of saying "no" in Hollywood, including passing on Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines right out of NYU's Tisch in order to stay true to his theater goals. He reflects on trying to break free from his breakout role as Trey on The O.C., finding creative liberation after getting sober, and why projects like Quarry and Leigh Whannell's Upgrade finally gave him the confidence to prove he is "a character actor trapped in a leading man's body."
