Episode Description from the Publisher

Billy Magnussen has spent the past twenty years adding diverse roles to his resume, and ‘The Audacity’ is emblematic of an actor coming into his own. Magnussen joins H. Alan Scott to talk about playing tech CEO Duncan Park in AMC's buzzy new series: why no character is a villain in their own story, how he built a man whose good intentions curdled into greed, and what it feels like to finally be number one on a TV call sheet. The fear hasn't gone away, and he's counting on it making him better.  Subscribe to my newsletter: https://for-the-culture.beehiiv.com Follow me: https://linktr.ee/halanscott See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
