In other words, more seats in which the politicians pick the voters rather than the other way around. "The alarming thing," said Davis, the former Republican representative "is you are taking the voters out of the equation."

So much of working on "Immortality" was exciting but I have to say, the writing really took the cake. Across all storytelling mediums, great writing is great writing. It was thrilling to get to work on such brilliant scripts. Additionally, as someone starting off my own film career, I felt so lucky—I got to play six characters across five different time periods in about six different genres. I got to do stunts and sing and dance and work with animals and more stuff I can't mention here because of spoilers. It's almost like I got to do everything I've always wanted to do as an actor, all at once.
