Post your questions for Adam Scott | film

Adam Scott has been a familiar face since the ’90s, appearing in everything from Hellraiser IV: Bloodline to Star Trek: First Contact, and comedies including Knocked Up and Step Brothers. You might remember him – and his beard – as a sarcastic boss arguing with Ben Stiller in The Secret Life of Walter Mitty (“I was saying you know who looks good with a beard? Dumbledore, not you”), or interfering with timelines in Hot Tub Time Machine 2.

It was his role as State Auditor Ben White on Parks and Recreation that made him indispensable: the anxious political expert turned devoted husband to Leslie Knope (Amy Poehler). Fans will recount their favorite Ben moments – from the two-second stop-motion movie that took weeks to produce, to the invention of the Cones of Dunshire board game, his earnest devotion to Game of Thrones and 90s alternative rocker Letters to Cleo.

Since Parks and Rec, he’s moved between comedy and drama on the small screen — from a demon in The Good Place to a political activist in Veep — before taking the lead in Severance, the troubling workplace drama that became one of Apple TV’s biggest hits. His film work continued, including Madame Web alongside Dakota Johnson, and as an absentee father in Stephen King’s The Monkey.

His long-running audio series U Talkin’… is also worth a listen, in which he obsessively delves into bands including U2, REM and Talking Heads. He’s also prone to the occasional fan outburst — like when he met his hero Mark Hamill on Jimmy Kimmel.

And now he’s back in the supernatural horror film Hokum, and he’s here to answer your questions; Please submit it by 3pm GMT on Thursday 16 April and we will publish his responses in our reader interview series.
