www.MOSTmag.com || FASHIO N MAG A ZINE || 83kind of rascal to play%u2026He skates on the edge of the law and is devoted to Danny Rayburn, played by Ben Mendlesohn.%u201d With an intriguing cast, family secrets, and plot twists, we look forward to bingewatching this promising new show. Our conversation turned to recent comments by Patricia Arquette, during the 87th Academy Awards. We asked Jamie what could be done to bridge the salary gap between the sexes. %u201cPay them equally, but Hollywood tends to pay by whom they deem will draw the biggest fan base.%u201d This ongoing issue will continue to plague the industry. o many shows are canceled by networks before having an opportunity to build a substantial fan base. The actor thinks combatting this long time trend requires a ballsy network like Netflix. They seem to latch on to projects they believe in and then shoot a full season rather than just shooting a pilot and waiting to see how a test audience responds. %u201cI think it comes down to having the suits hiring the creatives they believe in and letting that talent do what they do rather than stifling them.%u201d Gene Hackman, Steve McQueen, Spencer Tracy, Alan Alda, and Clint Eastwood are all very inspiring to Jamie. Blown away by Mark Ruffalo%u2019s range, he also appreciates the classics such as Braveheart, To Kill a Mockingbird, Josie Whales, French Connection, Caddyshack, Miracle, and, of course, Robin Hood. Jamie currently resides in Los Angeles, with his two boys, Luke and Liam. He lives with his girlfriend Heather, who also has two boys, Jackson and Charlie. %u201cIt%u2019s crazy when we have all four boys who are so close in age.%u201d He likes to spend his down time laying on the couch with his girlfriend watching movies or documentaries. He has been reading The Paris Wife by Paula McLain, about Hemingway%u2019s first wife, having taken and interest in the author and journalist after filming in the Florida Keys. Mr. McShane supports Tennis for Tots, a gentle and fun introduction to tennis, by playing in charity tournaments. He hopes to get more involved in the Christine O%u2019Reilly Children%u2019s Foundation. This non-profit organization raises money for children who need medical care that their families can%u2019t afford. Christine was a tennis pro and a triplet whom Jamie dated in the early 90%u2019s. She tragically died in a car crash in 1993. Truly a genuine and wonderful person, %u201cHer life and death have both had an enormous impact on my life.%u201dYou can find the talented actor currently working on a number of projects. Apart from Bloodline, he has a recurring role as Coroner Justin Burnside in TNT%u2019s Murder in the First. You can also find him in a film called Fifty to One about the horse called Mind That Bird, who won the 2009 Kentucky Derby. %u201cIt%u2019s an amazing underdog story, where Bird was over eight lengths behind the rest of the field before he turned it on and won.%u201d hen we asked the actor what grounded him, his answer was his girlfriend Heather. %u201cSometimes my kids ground me but other times they send me to the moon.%u201d Struggling with everyday life keeps him humbled and so does looking in the mirror with countless shows and movies on his resume, we will always be grateful for this modern-day Robin Hood, who gives of himself with substantial talent, consistent drive, and humility.
