It does feel like youre a part of something cultural thats really, really cool,HollingsworthtellsGlamourfrom British Columbia.
Im just as big of a fan of the show as anyone else.
My wife is too.
Benjamin Hollingsworth in season six, episode three
We sit down and devour episodes.
When Brie and Brady broke up previously, my wife was crying.
Im like, Are you crying about your husbands onscreen girlfriend breaking up with him?
Benjamin Hollingsworth and Zibby Allen as Brady and Brie in season four
[Laughs] Yes, she sure was.
Of course, thats the least of his problemsthough it is quite a big one.
Then theres the fact that Mike proposed to Brie in the final moments of episode 10.
Marco Grazzini as Mike and Zibby Allen as Brie in episode 606
Instead of saying yes, she admitted that she slept with Brady, butshockerMike already knew and didnt care.
So will Brie accept?
Or will she talk some sense into Mike that this couldnt come at a more awkward time?

Glamour:What reveal shocked you the most this season?
Benjamin Hollingsworth:Brady and Brie having sex on a pool table.
What if its the pool table in Jacks bar?
I think this might actually work.
I loved it because Jacks bar obviously isnt going anywhere, and neither is that pool table.
Its kind of amazing.
Brady goes through 18 different emotions all at once there.
It was like acting gymnastics and a lot of fun.
We had these little scenes and little moments, but not something meaty like that.
It looked great visually, but I had to imagine there was some serious soreness involved.
I have two words for you: rug burn.
[Laughs]
Did you end up regretting this?
At what point did you think, Why the hell did I suggest the pool table?
No, I dont think I ever…its all for the craft.
Obviously Brie is not pregnantyetbut she slept with Mike and Brady back-to-back.
At one point at the end of the season, Bries parents hint that they want grandkids.
[Laughs] But gosh, wouldnt that be something?
I think if the baby comes out with a leather jacket, we know its Bradys, right?
So, if Brady is about to become a father…
Oh my gosh, this is so hypothetical!
I am there for it, though.
So even if the child was Mikes…oh God, that would be so hard.
And this is hypothetical, just reminding everyone.
Were not going to be making crazy news here about season seven in this piece.
I wont lose my job over a season-seven storyline that doesnt exist.
But with that said, I think that would make for some good drama.
I also was shocked, because it wasnt written that way.
How was it written?
It was written that she admits she slept with Brady, but then that was it.
The I know wasnt there in the script, originally.
Did I miss a revision or something?
They shot it two different ways.
Now with it set up like this, it can play itself out in multiple ways.
But holy shit, right?
ItsVirgin River.Internet slow, gossip fast.
I feel like it played like desperation.
It was Mikes last hope of not having her drift away.
I dont know if Brady wouldve had a similar reaction if the roles were reversed.
But anything can happen inVirgin River.
I dont know necessarily if it means all of a sudden Brie and Brady are a thing, also.
Zibby and I have such a fun time acting with each other.
Lets talk about Lark.
He moved past all that pretty quickly.
Were you surprised by that?
In fact, when I read it, I didnt buy it.
I was like, Guys, this is ridiculous.
He would never do this.
So Brady is really making an effort.
Brady and Lark are very similar in that way.
They find themselves in difficult situations and make some bad decisions.
But overall, I think they have a good heart.
She seems at peace with his answer.
I thought she knew, but now Im not so sure?
And then when confronted by Lark, he essentially says theres nothing to worry about.
Hes still built in the same moral fabric as he was before.
However, hes trying to overcome some of these knee-jerk reactions that he used to have to protect himself.
A lot of Bradys personality stems from the fact that he always had to be a lone wolf.
He wasnt a part of a pack.
He joined the Marines, and all of a sudden he was a part of this family.
But when the Marines finished for him, all that went away and he had to fight for himself.
He went down the wrong road.
So all that is a part of who he is.
I didnt want to just abandon that.
Im happy the writers didnt either.
Would she have stayed?
Or do you think Lark was set on leaving and taking his money?
Thats maybe the difference between her and Mike.
Mike is always kind of doing the stand-up thing.
Hes very predictable, dependable, reliable, all the -ables.
That has its place.
You really must have had a blast this season.
Brady had the most OMG moments of anyone.
They did such a great job of setting up so many different opportunities for season seven.
Well be back at work in March and find out where we go from here.
I loved [season six].
Thats the reality of life.
I feel like thats just on par.
Like, how is he going to lose this money this season?
Because hes so incapable of maintaining a good thing.
How did she get into his bank account?
So we know you start filming season seven in March.
What else is next for you?
I just finished a movie with Arielle Kebbel, whos onRescue: HI-Surfon Fox.
Its a really cute dog movie were doing together.
Thats the first movie Ive done with a dog.
Got to say, dogs are very high-maintenance.
They are always eating all the food across crafts service.
They are leaving hair all over the wardrobe.
They never know their lines.
Theyre very seldom on their mark.
[Laughs] No, I had a great time.
I love dogs, and this is very much about [animal] rescue.
And then, Im writing a couple of different projects too.
