De mensen die de American Horror Story volgen moeten toe geven dat Dandy Mot een fooked up persoon is door dat hij verwend rijk is en voort is gekomen uit inteelt in de familie. Deze rol word gespeeld door de acteur Finn Wittrock en deze had een interview met de website Collider en daar van kan je hier onder alvast een stukje lezen.


Collider: How did you end up being a part of Season 4? Did Ryan Murphy come to you with this particular character?

FINN WITTROCK:
It actually happened on the set of The Normal Heart. He just said, "Do you want to be a part of the show?," and he didn't give me much more information than that. He explained to me that he gets his casts together first, like a rep company in theater, and then writes for them, from there. I'm sure he had the idea percolating, but didn't really let on about it. He's very deliberate, that way. He's kind of a genius. So, I said, "Yeah, let's do it." I've been a big fan of the show and, as an actor, I wasn't going to pass up the chance to work with Jessica Lange, Kathy Bates and Sarah Paulson just because I didn't know what I'd be doing. But he assured me that it would be a real challenge, and it has been. And it keeps surprising me, which is what's fun. It's never a boring day on set, that's for sure.

Dandy Mott is probably one of the best character names, ever. Do you feel like just his name alone really helps inform who this character is?

WITTROCK:
Yeah, definitely! Although, as the character goes on, every episode adds new dimensions to him and reveals more than you thought. So, you get a big initial image by his name and his demeanor and his hair, but hopefully that interests the audience enough to then be intrigued by the story so that we can take them to new, surprising places. It does not go in the direction you think it's gonna go.
