The actor said in an interview with Soap Opera Digest that “actors love the opportunity to dive deep into rich material and the journey of Peter August has been a heightened one, to say the least.”
“When the house of cards tumbled at the wedding earlier this year, Peter was not only betrayed by those closest to him that he’d learned to love and trust for the first time in his life, but he also learned of his mother’s true identity being Alex Marick (Finola Hughes), Not Anna Devane (Finola Hughes),” he added.
The actor continued to explain that Alex’s words when she met Peter played a vital role in his alter ego’s current identity. If you add that to what he’s been through with Cesar Faison (Anders Hove), it’s safe to say that something has shifted.
Ramsey is thankful for the opportunity but he also admitted that there are times when he struggles to portray his alter ego’s evil actions. Fortunately, he has a loving and supportive partner, Laura Wright, waiting at home for him.
If Peter doesn’t feel guilty for all the bad deeds he’s done, the same thing cannot be said about Ramsey. The actor revealed that he even apologized to Roger Howarth for killing Franco.
Ramsey explained actors can’t choose what their characters can and can’t do. He reminded his fans that they can’t make any of those decisions. They are required to tell the story that’s scripted for them, whether they like it or not.
