During a new conversation with Us WeeklySamuel Arnold considered reviving the then-successful Netflix series.
“He made us feel like we were witnessing a historical and cultural moment,” began Arnold, who plays Julian.
“It was nice for me personally. I was saying to myself: ‘I should do what I love, which is acting in amazing places.’ It’s priceless.”
He reflected on his own journey by saying, “From season one to now, Julian has been growing in his confidence — work wise — and in his relationship with the other characters.”
“This season really stands on its own,” Arnold noted.
The French actor commented in conclusion, saying: “The best thing about choosing the show to film in cities like Paris or Rome is that we get to experience the city in the best way possible.”
