FX recently premiered it's new series
Fargo. Bob Odenkirk, who plays the part of Deputy Bill Oswalt in the series, recently talked to the media about that role, as well as some of the other work that he's known for.
Odenkirk talked to SciFi Vision about what attracted him to his role in
Fargo. "I love the movie. I got the script and my first instinct on it was "please don't ruin the movie I loved," and I would say by about page eight or nine of reading of the script, I felt, oh man, this is great. This is everything good. They took all the great vibe from the movie. They took the darkness and the comedy and they, well they, Noah Hawley is the writer and he did all this work and he took what you can take and not take the specifics of the movie; and I could just tell it was very entertaining, so I wanted to go in on it and I just worked on my part and went in and I read for it and hoped that I would get it and I did.
"And then I was just surprised at how it grew over time as we were shooting it and how my part, Bill Oswalt, without giving away too many spoilers or any spoilers, he gets to go somewhere emotionally and it's pretty great."
