As the first season showed us right up until the end, there’s a lot more (or less, hair-wise) than meets the eye when it comes to Giorgio (Josh Segarra) on The Big Door Award<\/em>.<\/p>\n The Apple TV+ drama follows the people of a small town after the Morpho machine mysteriously appears, promising to reveal everyone’s true potential. Season 1 ended with a message on the machine asking them if they were “ready for the next stage”. What exactly is this? Here, Segarra reflects on that, looks back on Giorgio’s journey so far and shares his hopes for Season 2.<\/p>\n What stands out to you about Giorgio’s journey in the first season?<\/strong><\/p>\n Josh Segarra: <\/strong>I’m very lucky in these characters that I get to play. Giorgio, to me, is a former New York Ranger. I’m a Rangers fan. He is a former athlete; I always wanted to play an athlete on screen. And then open an Italian restaurant\/sports center? I worked at Olive Garden. I have tons of legendary OG tips if you need any for Olive Garden. And a sports center? I like arcades. I am a product of Orlando, Florida. Many restaurants I have been to have been themed restaurants.<\/p>\n I just love Giorgio. He is very loyal. He loves very much. Sometimes it’s love misplaced. Sometimes he talks a little at an inappropriate volume. Sometimes he is what we call the opposite of humble. But you come to realize it’s just because he’s coming from a slightly insecure place. He tries to remain a superstar like he once was, and sometimes expresses it inappropriately. But you learn why as you peel back those layers with Giorgio, those figurative and literal layers.<\/p>\n
