The Oscar winner believes the Apple TV spy thriller's lack of glamour is the key to its success. "This is ordinary people doing heroic things," Gary, 67, told the Today show, before comparing the gritty, down-at-heel drama with flashier spy franchises. "I think (audiences) have a connection to it rather than being removed if you're watching say The Bourne Identity or Bond, with their casinos and tuxedos. These are people having problems with their marriage and alcoholic issues or going through a divorce or only seeing their kids at the weekend, and they go to the laundrette and do these things that we can relate to."
