“I have no idea how I got that call. It all starts off with one of these self-tape interviews that you have to do, the lines and other stuff,” Wiff told Uproxx in a 2021 interview. “That’s so much harder for the actors then what it was. We used to be able to go in to the casting director and you’d have somebody in the room to play off of. We’re just doing these cold tapes now that are just like, man oh man. They expect you to be memorized. And if you get more than one in a week, you’ve got a lot of pages, you have to give up on one of them because you’re not going to memorize all of them, especially when you get a little bit older. So that’s pretty much how that came about.Our thoughts are with Wiff’s family, friends, and fans at this time.”
