Corey Cott and Aaron Lazar Talk FILTHY RICH and More on Backstage LIVE With Richard Ridge

Nothing can stop BroadwayWorld's Richard Ridge from bringing you interviews with your favorite Broadway stars! Yesterday, September 16, he chatted with the stars of FOX's Filthy Rich, Corey Cott and Aaron Lazar.

The pair talked about the show, which premieres on Monday, September 21.

"It's been a year and a half process, but it's here, it's arrived, and I couldn't be more pumped," Cott said about the show.

They went on to discuss what the process of working on the show has been like.

"From day one it's been an amazing journey," Cott said. "It's truly a rollercoaster of a drama that's just a blast."

"The most surprising thing for me is when we watched the first couple of episodes, I was surprised by how fast it moved, how many twists and turns there are and how crazy it was," Lazar said. "And we shot it, so if it's surprising me, it's going to surprise the heck out of everyone else."

Lazar went on to share that he started his television career as an extra in Sex and the City, so working alongside Kim Cattrall has been a dream come true for him.

They also both shared that it was easy for them to work together, both coming from the theatre.

"It felt like brothers getting to hang out," Cott said.
