Archie's Jason Isaacs Reveals the Secret Behind His Cary Grant Accent

Jason Isaacs has a long history of playing charming, yet difficult men, ranging from downright villains to more complex and flawed characters. It's a skill set that made him uniquely suited for the role of Cary Grant in the new biographical series Archie. While the world knew Cary Grant for the roles he took on in Hollywood, those closest to him knew a very different man. He could be controlling and downright cruel, but as Isaacs keenly stated during our interview, "hurt people hurt people." Archie showcases the full expanse of Cary Grant's life, starting with a young Archie Leach (Dainton Anderson) and progressing on to his adolescence through performances by Oaklee Pendergast and Theo Sharpe. Once Isaacs steps into his sharply tailored suits and debonair, there's so much more to his story to explore. It's here that we learn about his whirlwind of divorces as he chases after the rising starlet Dyan Cannon (Laura Aikman) who wants very little to do with him, at first. Their relationship, as flawed as it was, is the anchor for much of Archie's plot, and the source of most of the more dynamic and intriguing elements of the series.

Speaking with Collider, Jason Isaacs spoke about the process of finding Cary Grant's iconic Mid-Atlantic accent, the rare interview he was able to track down that allowed him to find the exact intonation of Grant's voice, and how he connected to Grant through the transformation of fatherhood. Isaacs also spoke briefly about voicing Enver Gortash in Baldur's Gate 3.
