“[Levine’s] a sexy guy, so he needs to play a sexy guy — but the guy that is different than who you think he would play…I pitched him the part and he listened, slack-jawed, and simply said, ‘I’m in.’ The second season is fun, sexy and baroque. It has a lot of meat to it; it’s a really gritty part. He’s with a girl, and they play characters called The Lovers.”
