Entertainment Spotlight: Richard Ellis, I Am Not Okay With This

If you’ve already binge watched I Am Not Okay With This, you probably recognize Richard Ellis from his explosive portrayal of Brad Lewis. Other notable credits include Veronica Mars (2019) and Should I Do It? We got the chance to chat with Richard about I Am Not Okay With This and the internet. Check it out:

Is there an event from your life that you think would make a great scene on the show?

I don’t really think you could pick anything specific. I think, if you were to zoom in on anybody’s life there would be billions of moments that would be absolutely beautiful to capture in the context of a show or movie or play or really any medium of entertainment. I can’t really think of anything personally for me, because everything is kind of intimate to yourself, you know what I mean.

When you think about your experience of filming, is there a specific funny moment or story that sticks out?

Definitely Wyatt’s Birthday. It was a really great bonding experience for the cast, for every one to get to know each other. 

If the show was a musical, what scene or episode would Brad’s big number be, and what would the song be called?

My big number would definitely be in the finale, and it’d be called “Boom.”

What’s your favorite thing that you saw on the internet recently?

My brother showed me this video of this dog that got really excited at the top of the staircase and took a full sprint and jumped off the staircase. It was hilarious (and the dog was totally fine).

Thanks, Richard! I Am Not Okay With This season 1 is now streaming on Netflix.
