And so the story I heard was that Tim called Rob and said, \u201cI have a crazy idea. What if we cast your brother to play your brother?\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Obviously Rob jumped at it and thought it was a brilliant and inspired idea, and I of course was thrilled and felt it was a long time coming. I think Rob and I both felt it was a long time coming because it\u2019s the first time truly we\u2019ve ever acted in anything together, but for a very small moment in a movie he did called <em>Oxford Blues<\/em>, where I came in in the last moment and shot a scene that they needed to help explain something in the plot of that film. I did two hours work and I think I\u2019m onscreen in that movie for about four or five seconds, but I don\u2019t really consider that nor does he consider that us really working together. This is the first time that Rob and I have ever acted in anything together.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1042998\" style=\"width: 865px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1042998\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-large wp-image-1042998\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/911-lone-star-316-rob-chad-lowe-1-855x570.jpg\" alt=\"Rob Lowe as Owen, Chad Lowe as Robert in 9-1-1 Lone Star\" width=\"855\" height=\"570\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/911-lone-star-316-rob-chad-lowe-1-855x570.jpg 855w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/911-lone-star-316-rob-chad-lowe-1-434x289.jpg 434w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/911-lone-star-316-rob-chad-lowe-1-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/911-lone-star-316-rob-chad-lowe-1-234x155.jpg 234w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/911-lone-star-316-rob-chad-lowe-1-570x380.jpg 570w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/911-lone-star-316-rob-chad-lowe-1.jpg 2028w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 855px) 100vw, 855px\"\/><\/p>\n<p id=\"caption-attachment-1042998\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Jordin Althaus\/FOX<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>How was that? Because you have worked together with you as a director.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Absolutely. I did <em>Brothers &amp; Sisters<\/em> with him and I did <em>The Grinder<\/em>. And then I\u2019m currently directing the third episode of <em>Lone Star<\/em> that I\u2019ve directed. It was better than I could have even dreamed or imagined. It was truly one of the highlights of my career as an actor. And I say that for a number of reasons, one is he\u2019s just a very good actor and I\u2019ve known that, but I got to experience that kind of intimately in sharing the scenes with him. As an actor, I always equate it to hitting the tennis ball and the better the player you\u2019re playing with, the better it makes you, so he really helped up my <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/game\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"7\" title=\"Game\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">game<\/a> as an actor.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And it was also the history that we share, that all obviously siblings have with one another and it\u2019s a lifetime of memories and it\u2019s a lifetime of all the good, the bad, the in betweens, the triumphs, the tragedies that you share with your family. And so that\u2019s all underneath the surface when we stepped on the set. I didn\u2019t have to do much to create a backstory, let\u2019s just say. All I needed to do was just look in his eyes and I know he felt the same way too, \u2019cause when we were done, we both just commented on what an incredible experience that was to be able to do that. And we also just thought, \u201cHow has this never happened?\u201d So I\u2019m grateful that it did.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Even though it\u2019s three scenes, you can see how the relationship changes throughout them and it\u2019s so clear because of the way you two work together.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Thank you. It\u2019s nice to hear. The writing is always so strong on the show, especially I feel like in these dramatic moments, and you always want subtext and you always want a life underneath the surface. That is really where the magic happens, when people really bring their experience to a role and so they can almost say so much without saying anything. I think we had that obviously just because of our history.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1042996\" style=\"width: 865px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1042996\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-large wp-image-1042996\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/911-lone-star-316-helen-owen-robert-855x570.jpg\" alt=\"Rob Lowe as Owen, Chad Lowe as Robert in 9-1-1 Lone Star\" width=\"855\" height=\"570\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/911-lone-star-316-helen-owen-robert-855x570.jpg 855w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/911-lone-star-316-helen-owen-robert-434x289.jpg 434w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/911-lone-star-316-helen-owen-robert-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/911-lone-star-316-helen-owen-robert-234x155.jpg 234w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/911-lone-star-316-helen-owen-robert-570x380.jpg 570w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/911-lone-star-316-helen-owen-robert.jpg 2028w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 855px) 100vw, 855px\"\/><\/p>\n<p id=\"caption-attachment-1042996\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Jordin Althaus\/FOX<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Did Robert have any idea who Owen was when they initially met? I rewatched the scenes trying to figure it out because it could go either way.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I have not seen the episode yet. I\u2019m not sure how that\u2019s played out \u2019cause oftentimes things get a little bit reordered in the final cut, but when we were shooting it, I was under the impression that my character Robert \u2014 which also made it even that much more confusing Robert and Robert [<em>Laughs<\/em>] \u2014 was not aware he even existed.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>It seems like Robert could have known of Owen\u2019s existence, but maybe not known it was him right away and then figured it out. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Interesting. Like you said, he may have been aware that there was another sibling, but he was not aware in that moment that it was him. And you know, it\u2019s funny \u2019cause Rob and I, everybody says that \u2014 obviously we look somewhat alike \u2014 our voices are very similar and it\u2019s been funny when I\u2019m directing sometimes and I\u2019ll call something out and people will think it\u2019s Rob calling something out and vice versa because our voices are so similar, similar enough that when I call our father, I often feel I need to let him know that it\u2019s me because I can tell sometimes he\u2019s trying to figure out, \u201cWhich son am I talking to?

It would be amazing. I would love that. As you know, with the show, there are incredibly well drawn out characters and great actors playing those characters. So there\u2019s a lot of story to serve. It\u2019s not like they need another storyline, they\u2019ve got plenty of people to serve. But if they wanted me to be involved and it was authentic and it was motivated for Owen to revisit his estranged half-brother, I\u2019d be there in a moment\u2019s notice.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>I feel like if he visited Texas though, he\u2019d end up in the middle of a crisis, maybe a fire \u2026 How would he handle that?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I will tell you that that last line that I have where he\u2019s walking away and I say, \u201cHey, Owen, don\u2019t be a stranger.\u201d I was half tempted to improv, \u201cHey, Owen, I I\u2019m available for future storylines.\u201d [<em>Laughs<\/em>] \u2026 We don\u2019t know much about Robert. He\u2019s kind of this man of mystery and I wonder, too. When Tim called me and said, \u201cDo you want to act?\u201d And I said, \u201cYeah, absolutely.\u201d I kind of said yes before I knew even what he was proposing.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Then when he said, \u201cYou\u2019d be playing Rob\u2019s brother,\u201d I thought, \u201cBut who am I? I know this character\u2019s Rob\u2019s estranged half-brother, but what is his background?\u201d Then you ask those questions in wardrobe fittings: \u201cIs this guy middle class, lower class, upper class? Is he blue collar, white collar?\u201d All those things inform the way you dress. It\u2019s all left somewhat vague. So I think there\u2019s a lot of room if the gods would want for my character to come back in any future episodes. There\u2019s a blank slate for what he is, who he is, where he\u2019s come from, and how he might react. All I will say is I\u2019m open to any of it. If Tim Minear is writing it, I\u2019m in. I trust him implicitly.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>You get a little bit of a sense of who this guy is, but like you said, not too much.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yeah. Does he have kids of his own? What is his job? Is he a first responder? Wouldn\u2019t that be ironic if he turned out to be a first responder as well and it was kind of in the family. Rob\u2019s an actor. I\u2019m an actor. My daughters want to be actors. You just kind of can\u2019t help it when you\u2019re exposed to it. The other thing that was great about the episode is Robert Pine and I did a play together about 40 years ago. I just had such an amazing experience working with him all those years back. I hadn\u2019t seen him since. So seeing him on the set was really incredible. It was very emotional to be on a set where I\u2019m working with my brother for the first time and I\u2019m getting to work with Robert Pine, who I hadn\u2019t worked with for 40 years. It felt very special to me and something that I would definitely treasure and always remember.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>You\u2019re directing another episode. What can you say about that one?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I\u2019m doing the penultimate episode for this season and I think it\u2019s when the show is at its best, which is there\u2019s a little bit of everything: You\u2019ve got some humor and we\u2019ve got some personal relationship drama and an unexpected relationship that is very touching and also humorous to a degree. Then of course you\u2019ve got some crazy rescues, some crazy situations people have found themselves in and needing to be rescued and a great storyline with Judd [Jim Parrack] and Wyatt [Jackson Pace] where they start to bond a little more and Judd really decides to step up and really become the father that he perceives that Wyatt needs. And it has unexpected consequences that lead to an event that will then propel us into the season finale.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>9-1-1: Lone Star<\/em>, Mondays, 9\/8c, Fox<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
