“I wasn’t important or a famous person yet,” he noted.
“They rolled out the red carpet and made such a fuss about me,” the Severance star continued.[They] took me back to the manager’s office and gave me this suite – all the time thinking I was the golfer. I have not corrected them. I thought, ‘This is great.'”
