Ology.com has a new interview with him, mostly about The Killing. Snippet:
How did you first land the role of Jasper?And The Gorgeous Geeks did a phone interview with him:
Getting the role was pretty standard. I did an audition for it and then about a week or so later I got called back in to meet with Patty Jenkins (the director of the pilot) and Veena Sud (the show's creator). I was quite nervous to meet them but as soon as I walked in the room and introduced myself they were just so kind to me. So I did the audition for them, it felt like it went pretty well and then a couple days later I got the call that I was going to play Jasper.
You've played a number of different types of characters. What drew you to this twisted one?
Depth. The amount of depth that the writers of The Killing put into the characters is just unbelievable. As an actor you would be out of your mind not to want that kind of opportunity.
Celebrity Extra has a new interview with William B. Davis. Snippet:
Celebrity Extra: As a longtime fan, I am thrilled that you wrote this book (Where There's Smoke ... the Musings of a Cigarette Smoking Man), but what was the impetus that caused you to write it in the first place?Here are the synopsis and official trailer for Errors of the Human Body, with Michael Eklund, released last week:
William B. Davis: It was, I guess, a series of things. It was first put in my mind by a university professor here in Canada. Because I had this kind of unique idiosyncratic background in the Canadian theater and around in the dying days of radio drama. I had lived in an interesting time. Obviously we knew The X Files experience was original, unlikely and of interest. I began to give it more and more thought, and as one began to look at the whole notion of examining one's past life to one's modern lens, it just became more and more interesting to do. Once I started I couldn’t stop. It was just so interesting to do.
Canadian scientist Dr Geoff Burton takes up a position at a new institute in wintry Dresden, Germany. His contribution to their most important project – a human regeneration gene – has the potential to make something miraculous out of a personal tragedy that has haunted him for years.
Errors of the Human Body is a psychological thriller about one man’s quest for redemption from his own disturbing past, set within the mysterious world of genetic engineering.

Meanwhile, Juliette (Bitsie Tulloch) insists that Nick invite Monroe (Silas Weir Mitchell) over for dinner, making for quite the interesting evening. Russell Hornsby, Sasha Roiz and Reggie Lee also star.
