American Horror Story: Asylum just ended, The Glass Menagerie just started its run, and Star Trek Into Darkness is hitting theaters in May, how do approach these three mediums of entertainment especially when they are so close together?

Each process is a little bit different, but I thrive on the opportunity of going back and forth, I wrapped American Horror Story on a Friday and I started rehearsing for The Glass Menagerie on [that] Monday. It's more really for me just about immersing myself completely in what's in front of me. The details are a little bit different in each scenario, but the goal is always the same for me and so I just work towards that in whatever framework or structure [I'm in]. For me it's really gratifying and I feel very grateful to be able to work in all these different mediums and I want to continue that as I move forward.

How did you approach the character, Dr. Thredson on American Horror Story: Asylum? Did you incorporate any part of your character Sylar from Heroes?

Not consciously, but there similarities between the two characters that I am sure overlapped at times. The great thing about that character on American Horror Story, was that I had a secret that I knew for the first five episodes [about] where the charactering was heading, which really was not the case in Heroes. It was a great gift for me as an actor to be able to anticipate the turns that were lying around the corner for the character, because I could sort of build towards that in a specific way, so for me it was about selling the audience one version of the character knowing that a very dark and different version would emerge. That was fun to be able to do and then I think if there were any similarities in the characters I think they emerged later on when his darker side was given full birth. I was lucky to be working with a lot of friends and as dark as that show is it was actually a very enjoyable process, because everyone working on that show is a constant professional and brought their A-game, but also really how to keep it light and not let the heaviness of the world that we were creating every week slip through.

Where would you like to see American Horror Story go next season?

I don't know. I haven't had any conversations about coming back, so at this point I don't think I will be part of the third season as no one has mentioned it to me and I know that they have been making other announcements for the cast. Which is fine, when I signed on for the second season, Ryan [Murphy] and I talked about it being a one year commitment and I think just where I am in my work and what I want to accomplish I think it is good to have a little flexibility and a little bit of freedom. So, at this point I don't really have any plans to go back, but from what I've heard and what I know is maybe going to happen a little bit, I am really excited to see the characters that Lily [Rabe], Sarah [Paulson], Jessica [Lange] and Evan [Peters] all play. I know Frances Conroy is coming back, which I think is amazing and I think it is going to be a different world all together and knowing Ryan as I do I think that it's only going to be more exciting and more surprising than anything we have seen so far. I look forward to watching it.

So there has been a lot of speculation from clues given throughout the second season that witchcraft may be involved in season three, do you have any comment on that?

I don't have any comments on that, because I just haven't been in touch with them since I left, so I finished that and I just completely put on a different hat and dove into a different experience. I really haven't been in touch with anyone from the show since I finished the second season, so I don't really know what they are planning, but I am sure it will be good.
