We’ve seen Pico Alexander appear in movies like “The Sky is Everywhere” and “Home Again” and in series like “Dickinson,” and “Catch-22,” and his acting is always on point when it comes to the most emotional scenes. What exactly is the secret to his success? “I’m not, like, totally sure what it is that makes for a recipe for success in that way,” he admitted to The List. He just knows that somewhere deep in his core, he knows exactly how his character would act.
It’s almost as if playing Toby Shaw in “The Sky is Everywhere” was instinctual for Alexander. However, the humble actor does credit his co-stars for helping him depict such intense emotions successfully on screen. “I just know that Josephine [Decker, the director] and Grace [Kaufman, who plays Lennie] and, you know, being able to put all of my focus on the two of them got me there,” he said.
“The Sky is Everywhere” is available to watch now on Apple TV+ and in select theaters across the country.
