“I’ve kind of forgotten how to sleep, honestly.” Arty Froushan tells me with a wry laugh, over a midday Zoom call. The actor is fresh off a whirlwind month of action, hopping from premieres of Marvel’s “Daredevil: Born Again” series (wherein he plays Buck Cashman) to wrapping a critically-praised run as Patrick Bateman in the Olivier-nominated “American Psycho” revival.
“Coming off of American Psycho, the consequences of missing a night of sleep were bad, because you had to face the music – literally,” he jests. Today, though, he’s finally taken a breather – and is comfortably situated back in England, visiting a friend.
A jack of all trades, Froushan has moved seamlessly from the stage to the screen – and most recently, into audio. As a result of his role as English playwright and composer Noël Coward in “Downton Abbey: The Grand Finale,” Froushan’s been vested with the task of recording Coward’s autobiographies. He quips: “My dreams are now narrated by Noël Coward... All of my inner monologues are Noël Coward.”
By all measures, Froushan is the portrait of an Englishman – and as a child, the image of a self-described “insufferable English schoolboy”: the choir-singing, theater-acting, rugby-playing pastiche of all an American mind might imagine the English stereotype to be. Nevertheless – and much to my own surprise – the actor was born on U.S. soil.
