NEW YORK, Sept. 30 (UPI) -- Your Honor, Outlaw King, Secret Invasion and The Bombing of Pan Am 103 actor Tony Curran says his character Simon Fraser, Lord Lovat on the Outlander prequel, Blood of My Blood, is such a terrible person that even his real-life loved ones complain to him about his behavior.
"He's a dastardly individual and an uncompromising old fox who will do anything. All means necessary," Curran told UPI in a recent Zoom interview.
"He's a complex, rich, dark, bad, bad individual," he said. "I keep getting messages from my wife and my friends. They're like, 'God, you're just despicable.' I'm like: 'Oh, thanks a lot. I appreciate that.'
"I guess there has to be a bad guy. Maybe he's just misunderstood. Maybe that's it. He's a lot of fun to play. People hate him or love to hate him. I'm OK with that. I guess, in some ways, I'm doing my job," he laughed.
