Actor Matt McGorry who plays Asher Millstone, the arrogant rich kid on How to Get Away with Murder, says the show will delve deeper into his character and background. Annalise (Viola Davis) will take on a client who was sentenced to death by Asher’s father years ago. Asher will prove that he has information Annalise needs to win the case and use it to his benefit. McGorry said of his character “Asher is smarter than he leads on…he likes to play dumb sometimes.”
McGorry told TV Guide that “something big” is going to happen at the end of Thursday’s episode (Oct 30 at 10pm on ABC). “I’ve never gotten to play such a range of emotion in a single episode. …It kind of sucker-punches you a little bit. That’s the thing that most interests me as a performer, in addition to telling the most captivating story. Hopefully this episode will elicit that same sort of response.”
