On this episode of Flourish-Meant, host Tina Yeager sits down with actor Brandon Potter to discuss the lessons he’s learned playing the antagonist character Quintus in the hit TV series “The Chosen”. The conversation delves into how viewers can relate to the character and the importance of being a part of something bigger than oneself. They explore the power of the show in bringing people together and the message of gathering with others to achieve growth through shared experiences. Tune in to learn how an unlikely teacher can offer unexpected perspectives.
Brandon Potter is an actor best known for his role as Quintus in the popular show The Chosen. A Texas native and lifelong storyteller, his voice can be heard in hundreds of cartoons, video games, audiobooks, podcasts, and commercials. On-screen credits include the feature film Little Woods, starring Tessa Thompson, a guest role in Special (Netflix Series), and commercial work for brands like State Farm, American Airlines, and more. He got his acting chops as a company member of the Tony Award-winning Dallas Theater Center where he starred as President LBJ in All the Way, and Scrooge in A Christmas Carol among many others. Current projects include producing the SAG feature film Final Dress, a teen slasher set in a summer theater camp, which addresses sexual assault in the live theater world.
In an interview with Flourish-Meant, Potter shares his insights on playing the antagonist to Jesus, and how he approaches empathizing with his character rather than judging him. He also talks about the importance of being a part of something bigger than oneself and the value of seeing people come together for a common cause. Brandon hopes that viewers of The Chosen will take away the message of gathering together with others to share and be a part of something open and inclusive.
