The 'Rivals: Ohio State vs. Michigan' narrator on the intense conflict between the fans of the colleges — and his own beef with A.I. technology
Did you feel biased when you took this job?
They’d asked me to do [the narration, which is] one of the fun things that I enjoy from time to time, whether it’s a nature documentary or a book on tape. I was already on board to do it. A few weeks later, they approached my agent and said, “Would you mind if we kind of break the fourth wall and put him on camera a little bit?” And I said, “Well, as long as I can be wearing a Buckeyes cap.”
It was not dissimilar to most films or television projects. If it’s clearly well-written, it’s often pretty straightforward for people to get on the same page. We just had a couple of very brief conversations about the tone, but I think it was so well laid out on the page that we pretty quickly flipped into something that the guys were on board with, and we just took off running.
Often, those silent competitions are very one-sided. When I first moved to New York and was still barely daring to even dream about being on Broadway, when I could actually scrape together the money to see a show, I would see a 29-year-old boy who’s losing his hair up there [onstage] and think, “Man, I wouldn’t mind having that guy’s career.” He didn’t even know there was a rivalry going on, but from my perspective there was.
