For our September 2024 issue, the 'Queer' castmates got on the phone to talk social circles, solitude and wild Roman nights out.
. As Eugene Allerton, an expatriate living in Mexico City who becomes an object of obsession to William Lee , Starkey had to learn to do more by doing less, a 180-degree turn from the character he plays on Outer Banks, which returns for its fourth season this fall. Starkey was an hour removed from seeingOMAR APOLLO: Dog, I’m in Australia. I miss your little dumb ass.APOLLO: Really good. We just played Sydney last night. The crowd was great. Only good vibes.
STARKEY: It’s always exertion and breaths and groans. Just you in a booth alone doing that, you feel like you’re in an insane asylum. APOLLO: Thank you for saying that. You’d be surprised. People think they need a plan and an entire scope of their career, how they want it to go. But that is constantly fluctuating. Actors are playing a role, there’s a director, you don’t have full control. There’s a lot of choices happening outside of you. Being an artist, it can be that. But if you want to be an integral artist, it’s a lot of suffering. It is rough, but thanks for noticing that.
STARKEY: I don’t know. I feel like I have a core group of people that I love and see on a daily basis, but I’m not too social.STARKEY: Yeah, but you like having people around.APOLLO: Oh, yeah. I get big lonely when I’m at home, not really when I’m on the road. But it is nice to have time to yourself. I can relate to that, because with the rhythm and the pace of our lives, you need to not be so in your head all the time.
APOLLO: Yeah, I had to get on the soup diet. Luca did not tell me to lose weight, but when you’re about to have a sex scene with Daniel Craig, you’re like, “Oh, dude, I can’t be looking off.” I was at 200 pounds, because I’m six-five.APOLLO: It’s around where I should be, honestly. But I got down to 181 when the movie came. I lost 20 pounds because I read in the script that my character had a flat brown stomach. I was like, “Damn, I’m actually not flat right now.
STARKEY: Yeah, it was all a blur. I was letting loose, man. I was so pent-up for the first couple weeks. You brought the animal out of me.STARKEY: Yeah. It’s a very unorthodox life, but I never got a chance to travel when I was younger, so this is like a dream.
