Actor Dana Delany, 68, is laser focused on her work, not her fame.
Thats not why I act.
YourTulsa Kingcharacter owns a horse farm and is a skilled equestrian.
Did you have experience around horses when you took the role?
I appreciate horses, but Im not a great rider.
The first season, I really wanted to get over that and become comfortable with the horses.
And it was very emotional, and I actually feel very comfortable with horses now.
This season, they didnt have me riding much.
My character is more involved with Sly [Stallone].
How is working withSylvester Stallone?
I have to say, its been an unexpected joy working with Sly.
He works so hard.
And hes editing, and hes watching the dailies.
Hes doing it all.
Its who he is, his nature.
On top of all that, hes incredibly spontaneous.
Hes not an autocrat about stuff.
Thats how I like to work.
Hes up for playing.
And people will see in the stuff that we did this season, we had so much fun.
It was a lot of fun.
Season 1 ofTulsa Kingwas shot in Oklahoma, and this last season was shot in Atlanta.
How did you like shooting outside of the usual L.A. soundstage?
I actually really enjoyed Oklahoma.
Id never been to Oklahoma before, and I found it surprisingly modern and hip and kind of unusual.
[Oklahoma City] has great art deco, so I was fascinated by that.
And surprisingly, I had never shot in Atlanta before, so that was new for me.
Id say the biggest thing that I loved was the foliage.
They have incredible trees there.
And they have a great park system, including Piedmont Park.
I lived in midtown, and I walked for hours as much as I could in the park.
It was quite amazing.
Is walking your favorite way of keeping fit?
I love to walk.
Ever since I was a kid, Ive been a big lone walker.
I walk and muse.
I dont listen to anything.
I dont listen to books.
I dont listen to music.
I dont talk on the phone.
I like to be present and watch and be with my thoughts.
