Eric Dane Records “Famous Last Words” Special with Netflix Before Passing
Eric Dane, known for his roles in Grey’s Anatomy and Euphoria, had his final interview released recently as part of Netflix’s Famous Last Words series. This unique series, inspired by a Danish show called Det Sidste Ord, showcases prominent figures giving their last interview before their passing, which is then released posthumously. The show is the brainchild of Brad Falchuk, known for his work on popular series like American Horror Story.
The first episode of Famous Last Words featured Dr. Jane Goodall, the renowned ethologist and conservationist, who shared some profound thoughts about the state of the world. Dane’s interview, much like Goodall’s, was conducted in utmost privacy, with only the interviewer and interviewee present. The unedited interviews feature candid moments where the subject speaks directly to the camera.
Eric Dane’s illustrious career began in the 90s with appearances in shows like Saved by the Bell and The Wonder Years, but he shot to fame as Dr. Mark “McSteamy” Sloan in Grey’s Anatomy. His most recent role was as Cal Jacobs in Euphoria.
In his Famous Last Words interview, Dane opened up about his past struggles, including the loss of his father and grandmother at a young age. He also addressed his two daughters directly, leaving behind a poignant message. Brad Falchuk, who conducted the interview, spoke highly of Dane’s resilience and positive spirit, describing him as brave, soulful, charming, and full of joy.
While the concept of posthumous interviews may seem eerie, Famous Last Words is a project that is done with the full consent of the subjects involved. And with more episodes likely on the horizon, viewers can look forward to more moving and insightful conversations with other prominent figures in the future.
