INHERENT VICE MICHAEL K WILLIAMS MOVIE
You play a character in a movie and then you play a character over years. How does that feeling end when youâre done with a movie as opposed to, youâre done with a TV series youâve been on for many seasons? WILLIAMS: It was life changing. Those characters helped me with a strong form of foundation with those two characters. I have a very healthy appetite for good writing and good characters. Having weak writing is my biggest fear because everything is not going to be The Wire or Boardwalk Empire. Iâd still like to be able to find that excitement in my work. I can do my best, I donât want to do backwards, in that sense. Not think, âI want to do more Wires, I want to do more Boardwalks.â You had The Wire and then you had Boardwalk Empire. What were those experiences like, getting to build a character and layer them over the course of many seasons? WILLIAMS: Yeah, musicâs been part of my entire life. Itâs in my DNA. I absolutely miss dancing. Donât want to do it for a living, Iâm getting old, I canât move like I used to. If I had the opportunity to do something on Broadway or a musical, I would jump at the opportunity.

Is dancing something you miss doing in performance?
