Cox, who lives in London, makes his debut in the second episode of the season, showing on HBO on Sunday. Cox said, “you start to get that something else is going on with me.” Prohibition-era Atlantic City to the chaos and war of 1920s Ireland.

The character insinuates himself into the business and household of Nucky Thompson, the series protagonist played by Steve Buscemi, claiming to prefer Taking the role of Owen Slater, a rakish visitor from Ireland.
The 28-year-old actor has starred in movies like the fantastical “Stardust” and the period drama “There Be Dragons,” and on the London stage in the Harold Pinter play “The Collection.” But he had never worked regularly on a television series before This place at all, probably helped because it was similar to what I felt as Charlie on set in New York.”
“The fact that I was playing someone from an entirely different world, who had no experience of “I didn’t start watching it until I’d already filmed four or five episodes,” he said. But the British actor Charlie Cox faced an additional obstacle when he signed on to HBO’s “Boardwalk Empire” for its second season: He’d never seen the show. Joining an acclaimed series already in progress can be a fraught proposition. Polay/HBO Charlie Cox joins the cast of HBO’s “Boardwalk Empire” on Sunday night. Too many Oscarisms to count, including "You're too smart to be that dumb" and "I told you a lot, don't know what you heard," but the man was just generally on fire.Macall B. Is there anyone more eloquent and better to listen to than Gaston Means? Sally is a close number two, her drawl and comebacks are golden. This was a tight episode only focusing on a few narrow characters, which I like, even though it left so much unanswered. Seriously, Gillian's outfits are beautiful. Difficult moment when Eli yelled at June, who he usually treats with such love and affection. Why put him back there, lying and hiding things from Nucky again? Does he have a plan to throw the others under the bus but save Nucky? I don't see why he couldn't have brought Nucky in on it. He had such a fantastic arc as being jealous of Nucky and plotting against him, only to fall spectacularly, pay for his sins, then start on a long road to redemption. I hate that Eli is in this position again though. Is Nucky handing over the reins, or just letting Eli set himself up. So, what the heck is going on with Eli. Narcisse's men kill Oscar, the blood of which lies firmly on Chalky. And then, of course, with Daughter in the wind (after being harangued by Oscar, and probably cognizant on some level of their doomed affair), the piper came to be paid. Viewers would have been right to have been filled with unease throughout Chalky's walkabout. Chalky, still so twisted up from his altercations with Narcisse, his situation with Nucky, and his tarnished standing in the community, promises Daughter she can have what she wants - he'll run away with her, and away from it all.īoardwalk Empire is never sentimental, though (see Richard Harrow's wedding as an example). But Oscar, who could easily rival Maggie Smith's Dowager Countess from Downton Abbey when it comes to quips and one-liners, didn't offer much in the way of help. Chalky visits his mentor Oscar Boneau as both a safe haven and a way to collect his thoughts. Nucky came to his realization late in the hour, but before that, we watched Chalky and Gillian both look for outs, and fail.
