VIDEO: FOSSE/VERDON's Sam Rockwell Was Attracted to Dance as a Kid

Sam Rockwell, who plays Bob Fosse on FX's Fosse/Verdon, stopped by LATE NIGHT WITH Seth Meyers to talk about his experience on the limited series.

Meyers admits that he knows about Fosse but that he didn't know about Gwen Verdon, to which Rockwell replies, "We're trying to sort of correct the record on that and give Gwen Verdon her due and some attention about that collaboration."

Rockwell goes on to talk about his background in dance saying, "There were some rough kids in my neighborhood, and to get away from them, I hung out with some other kids. And I got into dancing just to meet girls and stuff like that."

Spanning five decades, Fosse/Verdon explores the singular romantic and creative partnership between Bob Fosse (Sam Rockwell) and Gwen Verdon (Michelle Williams). He is a visionary filmmaker and one of the theater's most influential choreographers and directors. She is the greatest Broadway dancer of all time. Only Bob can create the groundbreaking musicals that allow Gwen to showcase her greatness. Only Gwen can realize the unique vision in Bob's head. Together, they will change the face of American entertainment - at a perilous cost.
