The actor recently revealed how he’s been away from work for so long. In an interview, he said: “The days we work are paid and TV actors are like a daily bet. If we don’t shoot for two to six months, that’s fine, but beyond a certain point it does Excuse me. It gets tough, especially now that I have responsibilities and stuff. For a while, it worries me.”
