One project you mentioned earlier, we keep hearing theres a Deadwood movie in development and David Milch is working on that script. Are you willing and able to reprise your role as Al Swearengen given your other commitments, and whats the latest youve heard on that?
Yeah! Of course Id love to reprise that. How could one not, when it was snatched away rather unjustly by a combination of forces well never know about? Hubris or money or whatever. But [Deadwood] certainly finished too early. At the time, most of us working on the show were incredulous. Its been announced by HBO, so its not like Im saying it. I know for a fact David is working on the script. Its been 10 years since it finished. [Star Timothy Olyphants] free from Justified. Im hoping theyll make the deal soon, for two or four hours, whatever they decide on. It was a very close knit group of actors on it. We got along very well. Im sure David will decide to set it 10 years later, after the great fire or whatever happened in Deadwood. They havent done the deal yet. They [were planning] to do it late this year or early next year.

How can you be a fan without using "cocksucker" in your post?

I know this 'cause she mentioned it on her FB page. I met her after a performance at a disability fundraiser in Berkeley a few years ago, and managed to make it onto her friends list. She has two cats, Harry and Juliet!

I'll be glad to see it revived.
