Kasra Farahani who directed Episode 3 of the second season talked about Majors’ contribution to the show.
Farahani revealed that he was surprised by the severe assault allegations against him but said that Majors was a great actor to work with on set. He toldVariety,
“It was a surprise for sure. But I don’t know anything about it, other than to say that we had, honestly, such a great experience on the set. The cast was a wonderful ensemble. They all worked together super well. Tom would have an idea, Jonathan would have ideas, Owen is an idea machine.
The experience on set was without any drama, and just a joy. For me, especially as my first big directing opportunity, I count myself so fortunate to be working with such high-caliber actors that made the directing that much easier for me.”
Majors’ fate will be decided solely based on the outcome of the trial that began its jury section and other deliberations on Wednesday.
