The conversation moves through pivotal career moments, including: His transition from dancer to leading actor in The Mahabharata at Sadler's Wells Grueling physical training and stage combat with Royal Opera's Aida Landing the role of White Rat (Unsullied) on HBO's Game of Thrones—a casting that changed his life overnight Navigating identity, ambiguity, and accent as tools rather than limitations in casting His leap from London to Los Angeles, adjusting to Hollywood's casting culture, and building a thriving screen career Marcos also reflects on recent work including Keeping Up with the Joneses, The Family Business, Days of Our Lives, and the Amazon film Cabin Pressure, where his extensive movement and combat training continues to inform his screen performances. The episode culminates with an exciting deep dive into Marcos' original film project, Ceremony: Last of the Bloodlines—a culturally rooted psychological horror exploring trauma, inheritance, fractured family bonds, and ancestral ceremony, inspired by Caribbean spiritual traditions. Marcos discusses writing the screenplay, assembling an international creative team, and the journey toward funding and production.
