" He doesn't want flashy clothes or cars. He'd rather wear jeans and drive a truck." http://www.dominicpurcell.net/cms/blog.php?lng=en&sel=pg&pg=84 http://www.dominicpurcell.net/cms/blog.php?lng=en&sel=pg&pg=84 Alanna Ubach is an actress that worked with Dominic on John Doe: says he has more in common with his character than a pretty mug. " Dominic's a genius. He has the memory of an elephant. He's given these insanely long lines the night before he shoots, and he learns everything in, like, two hours. It's amazing. His brain is 500 trillion times above everyone else's." http://www.dominicpurcell.net/cms/blog.php?lng=en&sel=pg&pg=83 http://www.dominicpurcell.net/cms/blog.php?lng=en&sel=pg&pg=83 William Forsythe co-starred with Dominic on John Doe: Although Purcell is new to United States television, Forsythe hasn't felt the need to teach him much. " He's fresh off the boat, perhaps," he says. " That, I don't know. I've worked with a lot of different guys who are young, up-and-coming guys, that don't necessarily have their stuff together, but Dominic does. Dominic's sharp. He's a fine actor, and he's a down-to-earth guy." http://www.dominicpurcell.net/cms/blog.php?lng=en&sel=pg&pg=82 http://www.dominicpurcell.net/cms/blog.php?lng=en&sel=pg&pg=82 John Doe Executive producer Mike Thompson: " The network certainly thinks our strengths lie in Dominic Purcell, who's a very magnetic and charismatic actor. There's no doubt that the weight of the show falls on his shoulders. Certainly, he is our biggest draw. When Dominic walked in, he had this innocent, humble quality, that when mixed with the incredible bravado that comes with this gift, just felt very accessible. The other thing we were intent on when we wrote this was to find a man's man. It's definitely an Australian quality that persists, because it's getting harder and harder to find a very masculine, easy-in-his-clothes man in the traditional casting pool. Thank God for Australia."
