Jeff Daniels discusses his new memoir, why his Republican character in 'The Newsroom' is still relevant today, and if 'Dumb and Dumber 3' will ever happen.
—the 68-year-old actor is diving into the world of memoir by blending performance, song, and personal narrative to highlight his passions and chronicle his life.
After beginning the project, he expanded beyond his stage material once he felt he had the freedom"to be 100% in control" of the narrative. Doing so gave him the chance to reflect on"how I got where I got...and what I learned along the way." Daniels explains that he never expected people to respond to his music as positively as they have and that early on, he thought the medium would only become his livelihood once he retired from acting."20 years ago... I really thought the acting career was going to end," he says."I was getting ready to be a guy who told stories and sang songs and worked the clubs."
