“I wouldn’t have the career I have today without the show,” he said on a February episode of the Love It Film podcast. “At the same time, though, a lot of people [would say], ‘Who wants to hire Walt Jr.?’ That was kind of a stigma that I fought for for many years. I even still fight it today sometimes.”
And, he told Vulpis, “It’s so special when you can work on these sets. I shoot like a movie a year.”
Mitte said he considered himself “very lucky in that, they’re not big movies and they don’t always pay the bills, but I still get to act and I still get to enjoy my time on set with these families that we make and work together to create art.”
