December 12, 2024Interview: Tim Fehlbaum on Documenting a Tragedy and Keeping Everything in the Control Room in ‘September 5’
December 12, 2024As Stuart Heyford, deputy chief of mission at the US embassy in London, Ato Essandoh says working on Netflix’s The Diplomat is a “dream job.” His enjoyment of the role is palpable. Audiences were left on the edge of their seats after the massive explosion at the end of season 1, wondering if Essandoh’s character would survive into the next.

Essandoh recently sat down with Awards Buzz to discuss his reaction to the season 2 finale, the humor and fun he had on set, and some of his favorite moments.
