NEW YORK, May 28 (UPI) -- Michael, Running Man, Euphoria and Four Seasons actor Colman Domingo says working with renowned filmmaker Gus Van Sant on Dead Man's Wire exceeded his expectations.

Van Sant is known for helming Milk, Good Will Hunting, To Die For, Drugstore Cowboy and My Own Private Idaho.

"He's one of the kindest, most gentle -- with a little twinkle-in-his-eye sense of humor -- artist," Domingo, 56, told UPI in a recent Zoom interview.

"What I love is that it feels a little like, even though it's very organized and laid out, it still feels like a bit of guerrilla-style direction, like he wants the rough edges. He doesn't want the polished version of it," he explained.
