If you haven't gotten the chance to watch the latest episode of Atlanta (season 2, episode 6), the 40-minute, commercial-less showing followed Darius (Lakeith Stanfield) as he tried to acquire a piano from a spooky, secluded old white man named Teddy Perkins. In a new interview with Vulture, Derrick Haywood — who plays Perkin's brother Benny in the episode — revealed that Teddy was in fact played by Donald Glover, and that Glover did not break character during the entire filming of the episode.
"When I say this guy was in character the whole time on set — it was just amazing the commitment he brought to the character....They were calling him Teddy, he acted as Teddy. There was no Donald on set whatsoever. I kid you not."
Check out a trailer from the episode below. Atlanta on Thursdays at 10pm EST on FX.
