Walton Goggins says The Unicorn is "unnerving" because his character is very much like himself

TV Guide

"I was really insecure about it," Goggins said while promoting his CBS sitcom at the TV press tour. "This is closer to me than anything that I've ever played. It took me asking myself the question, can you pull that off? Can you pull off just being you? Once I got past that fear of it then I said yeah, no, this is what I think I've always wanted to play." The Shield and Justified alum added: "It was nice to step outside of hiding behind something. We'll see where it goes. But it's been liberating in a way, and very grounding. I'm very happy with this opportunity."
