We’ve got a Dutton down, y’all.

Odds are pretty high you might take a bullet in one of his shows, right?

It was a tough pill to swallow.

I was every emotion.

I love playing Jack and I want Jack to go on forever, Mann admits.

Its a move that Jack never saw coming, Mann says.

It’s my guys.

It’s all good.

They must be just like me.

I found some bros and we’re gonna go to the fight together.

Now this is awesome, he explains.

He’s doing it with the purest of intentions.

They were that alive before, and then they’re gone.

I still feel like he may have died, just in another way.

I don’t know, maybe I slowed those guys down just long enough.

I hope I did something.

Bringing such an important scene to life, Mann says, was a very daunting experience.

I think that was the most self-conscious I had felt during filming anything of Jacks, actually.

And that my family will always be there for her.

That was how I saw it in my eyes.

I guess that’s not quite how the story goes in Taylor’s eyes, though.

Im totally down, he says.

Im such a fan of his writing, his shows, his movies.

I think he’s one of the best storytellers around.

So to get to work with him again would be nothing but a pleasure.
