If you’ve ever wonderedwhat Jesse Metcalfe is doing now, you’re in for a treat.
Oh, and Lowndes wrote and produced the film, too!
Two people from the medical field.
And Dr. Williams is very skeptical of this.
And obviously he’s very close with his grandfather, and he is the person overseeing his treatment.
So it’s actually a really moving story.
Oh, thank you so much.
That’s such a compliment.
I don’t get to hear that often from people.
I pride myself on bringing that extra layer, so thank you.
Yeah, it definitely comes through.
This movie is, I think, very special.
On the ‘competition’ of working with Jessica Lowndes
Yeah, absolutely.
And you brought up Jessica [Lowndes], of course.
Well, we didn’t know each other at all coming into this project.
And I think that happened.
I think our chemistry was incredible.
And I mean, at the end of the day, that’s what I’m all about.
And I think it worked well.
And I think Jessica’s incredibly talented, and I think the movie speaks for herself.
I definitely think so.
And I think that chemistry does, it comes through.
Was it different working with someone who like, she was doing every single aspect of the movie?
I really respect just Jessica’s work ethic.
And I pride myself on my work ethic and not phoning in [a] performance.
And I felt like she was right there with me every step of the way.
How Jessie Metcalfe developed his character alongside Jessica Lowndes
Yeah, definitely.
I think that’s really interesting.
You said that, as you mentioned, your character is a surgeon.
Did you do anything special to prepare for that aspect of your character?
I would definitely agree.
Jessica was incredibly collaborative, and I mean, she was really calling the shots on this project.
I did feel that I had room to develop the character in the way that I saw fit.
So, yeah, I mean, I really found the experience of making this movie pretty creatively satisfying.
And I really enjoyed working with some of the other supporting actors as well.
Like Jesse Moss, I think, turns in a really great performance.
So it was an interesting experience to sort of answer to someone else’s creative vision.
And ultimately, I think I really learned a lot from it and enjoyed it.
And I sort of wrapped the movie having a really great respect for Jessica.
Like I said, for her work ethic, for her drive, and for her talent.
He opened up about working on Chesapeake Shores
Yeah.
I mean, do you have any interest in writing films that you could then star in as well?
I definitely have a lot out of interest in continuing to produce.
I wouldn’t really call myself a writer.
Speaking of moving things, that’s actually a perfect transition.
I wanted to talk a little bit about “Chesapeake Shores.”
So I wanted to ask how might that role have prepared you for “Harmony from the Heart”?
I had a lot of influence on my character’s development and direction.
And of course, I’m flattered by that.
Is that something you’d be interested in?
With “Chesapeake Shores,” I just have one other question about it.
So what was your experience like working with her?
Well, Meghan Ory’s great.
And we had a great time together.
And I certainly wanted to check that that I worked with someone that I got along with.
So is that sort of the scenario you want to go back for?
I think that’s the scenario that makes the most sense.
Would he be interested in a Desperate Housewives revival?
Yeah, I gotcha.
I mean, it could definitely be interesting.
I know people would tune in, that’s for sure.
Are there specific “Desperate Housewives” memories that really still stick with you today?
Oh, gosh, yeah.
So, I mean, I remember everything really like it was yesterday.
A lot of laughter and a lot of really funny moments.
How has your fan reception grown from the “Desperate Housewives” days to now?
I mean, I really love my fans.
I mean, they’re really inspirational actually and just incredibly supportive and encouraging.
They kind of keep me going.
And I’m just so appreciative of their loyalty to me.
Jesse Metcalfe recalls competing on Dancing With the Stars
Yeah.
I know, I couldn’t believe it either.
Time flies when you’re having fun.
And I’m sure that fan base was really excited to see you on that show.
And I wanted to ask, what other reality series would you want to appear on?
I actually do that on the side.
But I’m not a huge fan of reality.
And also, I felt like it was a really special season.
And it was a pretty exciting season.
And I mean, all the professional dancers.
I mean, that show is just really a class act show.
And so it was a lot of fun.
But it’s nice to hear that confirmed.
I wish I could have stuck around a little longer.
I mean, you were still great, though.
So for some reason I find myself tuning into that show.
That show’s pretty entertaining.
I mean, reality is always kind of a guilty pleasure, and it’s so incredibly popular.
I mean, when reality TV sort of …
I mean, I’ve been watching reality TV since the first season of “The Real World.”
It’s pretty cool.
Generally, what can you tell us about what’s next for you?
ET on GAC Family.
First movie with GAC Family, so I hope everybody watches it and enjoys it.
We had a lot of fun on that one, and I’m excited to see the second installment.
So got a couple projects.
