When it comes to his character Toby’s portrayal, Jesse said: “My first reaction had been that the guy is completely self-aware.

“But I realized that he has a sense of righteousness that clouds him from being self-aware and seeing his own contributions to the fraught in his marriage.

“It’s a lot more comfortable for me to play the antihero than it is to play the charming guy.”

The actor is joined by Emmy Award winner Claire Danes, who plays the main character’s ex-wife Rachel Fleishman.

Claire detailed the filming process and what it’s like playing opposite Jesse and told : “We had met briefly before. But just one time, so we didn’t have a huge sense of each other.

“We had huge cast dinners before we began rehearsing, and that was helpful.

“But I have to say I had an immediate kind of rapport and kind of shorthand with this fine fellow. So it didn’t take much cultivation or effort.”
