Summary

The Ghosts season 3 finale airs tomorrow night (May 2nd) on CBS, and star Asher Grodman who plays fan favorite Trevor Lefkowitz, talks about landing the role, his audition process, when he found out his character was pants-less, and how the pandemic nearly ended the show before it began. He discusses the ensemble nature of Ghosts, what it’s like to do a sitcom, the difference between auditioning and acting, and how he learned to do both. Plus, Asher shares his Jacksonville Jaguar fandom and explains what inspired the short film he made for the team for last year’s draft. And he talks about his friendship with late, great actor Eli Wallach (of The Good, The Bad & The Ugly and How The West Was Won fame), and how he persuaded Eli to star in Asher’s student film.
