STARPULSE: NCIS' Brian Dietzen Talks About His Show And His Charitable Work
By: Erin Demchak
June 3rd, 2012
We may know him as NCIS’ Jimmy Palmer, but Brian Dietzen does a lot more than just act. He shares with his what he loves to do in his downtime- volunteer with the Children’s Hospital Los Angeles.
... Starpulse: You have such a rich theater background, is that something you want to go back to?
Brian: "I think that an actor who is working should be a happy actor. I am really blessed and fortunate to be on NCIS, I really enjoy it and I really enjoy the cast and all my friends that I have on set. With that said I grew up doing theater and went to University of Colorado in Boulder and absolutely fell in love with theater. It was my first acting experience so I would absolutely love to get back to doing theater but my schedule doesn’t really permit it a whole lot during shooting. Possibly during the hiatus of the show, I know Rocky Carroll is doing a play over this hiatus this year. But last year and the year before my hiatus was filled up with movie stuff. But it definitely is something different. Being able to have the same character uncut for three hours in a play is a vastly different experience than having a take for TV that lasts twelve seconds or at the most a minute or two. So they are both a different style of acting but both are incredibly rewarding if you enjoy the work..."
... Question: [from Twitter]: Why no Emmy prediction for Robert Carlyle? The man is acting his heart and soul out in Once Upon a Time. For me, he is pure "gold!" — Joanna
Matt Roush: This question is referring to my Emmy predictions as one of the "experts" (their word) on the GoldDerby awards website. An imperfect science, to be sure, and these are my predictions, not always my preferences. And I reserve the right to change my predictions and rankings should I see fit. The category of supporting actor in a drama was especially tricky, and I'm already considering flipping Breaking Bad'sGiancarlo Esposito to the top of the list (although John Slattery has killed this season on Mad Men, and at some point the Emmy voters are going to have to start rewarding some of the actors on this show). Robert Carlyle is displaying wicked range as Rumpelstiltskin/Mr. Gold, and he's easily one of my favorite characters and performances on Once Upon a Time. Given the show's success, it may get more Emmy attention than a typical fantasy series tends to attract in its first year. But given how strong and deep so many drama ensembles are these days, it may be a while until any of the cast is singled out. Should he break through, it would be a pleasant surprise (depending on who gets cut to make room for him, that is)...
