During his interview with Vulture, Woodall explained just how crazy it used to be for him to be selected by means of creator Mike White and sign up for the successful series.
"It was a combination of 'Pinch me' and 'How am I going to do this?'" Leo Woodall admitted to Vulture. "I watched the first season not knowing there was an audition in my inbox for season two. I fell in love with the show, and only a couple weeks later did I clock that I had an audition for the next season. Going into it, I thought some stars had aligned and I had to, regardless of the pressure, have as much fun as I can."
When Leo Woodall first joined the forged, he had no concept about his shocking twist with his "uncle" Quentin, performed by means of Tom Hollander. But quickly, after he was instructed what used to be going to occur with their dynamic.
"I’d been told I might have a rumble and tumble with a couple of characters, but I didn’t know who. When I was told that Tom Hollander was playing my uncle, I was already elated," he said to Vulture. "Then the news dropped about that moment and I just had about ten seconds of silence, digesting it."
Woodall admitted that he needed to mentally prepare for a lot of scenes in the series, now not just the turn of occasions at the finish of episode 5.
"The whole job was about mentally preparing to go into the best show in the world, so everything that came with it took some mental preparation," He stated. "My first day of filming was actually that sexy scene with [Portia actor] Haley [Lu Richardson]. That was the introduction to this job. Quite rock and roll!"
One of the things that calmed Woodall's nerves was the undeniable fact that writer Mike White encouraged him to deliver facets of his own personality into the role.
"There’s something crazy about how incredible his script is but how casual and easy he is. He encouraged us to muck around. In episode four when we’re at the bar, I made up a line where I say, 'Dos Jägermeister, dos Red Bull,' because I thought it would be funny for him to speak Spanish to an Italian bartender. I thought Mike would cut it, but I think he put it in!"

As for his relationship with the man who plays his uncle, Woodall referred to as Tom Hollander (Quentin) "a gentleman and a true professional."

Woodall spent a large number of time striking out with the different cast contributors in between filming in Italy.
"There was a really nice day where me, Meghann [Fahy], Adam [DiMarco], Beatrice [Granno], Simona [Tabasco], Haley [Lu Richardson], and Aubrey [Plaza] went to a beach and swam out to this big rock. There were a lot of nights out. There was a fun day where Meghann and I went to the beach and came back and Murray Abraham was sat down having a drink and we joined him for a couple hours and hung out."
