This week, Tommy is joined by actor David Castañeda who is currently starring in the fourth and final season of the Netflix smash-hit, The Umbrella Academy. The series is based on a collection of comics and graphic novels, and follows a group of estranged siblings with extraordinary powers who uncover family secrets while battling looming threats to humanity. David quickly became a fan-favorite of the show as the sweet, impulsive and sometimes overly confident Diego Hargreeves, a police academy dropout turned vigilante who desperately wants to prove himself. Today, David opens up about it finally hitting him that he won’t be returning to a series that has been such a big part of his life, how he almost snuck off set after his last day of shooting wrapped because it was too hard to say goodbye, his deep love and admiration for the rest of his cast, what he will forever cherish about playing Diego, if he was happy with how the entire series ended, if the fan reaction has surprised him, the scenes of Diego that will stay with him forever, how he has handled the pressure that comes from being part of such a fan-favorite genre, if he would be down to do a spin-off, what that spin-off could look like, what he has learned the most about himself through this entire experience, his relationship with success, and his struggle over the years with feeling like he fits in.
