Bill Camp - 'The Queen's Gambit'

THE HOLLYWOOD REPORTER
About this episode

The best character actor working today, according to a 2021 industry survey, reflects on how he came to acting by way of the scene shop, why he quit the profession for two years in the early 2000s and what explains his remarkable past decade — a Tony nom, an Emmy nom (with another likely next month) and roles in five best picture Oscar nominees, two of which won.

Credits: Hosted by Scott Feinberg and produced by Matthew Whitehurst.
