Actor Michael Sheen recently participated in a unique interview for a new BBC special, where he engaged with a group of about 35 interviewers who are neurodivergent or have a learning disability. The special, titled The Assembly, aired during Autism Acceptance Week and aimed to create an open dialogue with no subject off-limits.
Sheen, known for his role in Good Omens and currently portraying NHS founder Aneurin Bevan in Nye at London’s National Theatre, expressed his excitement and apprehension about the experience. He welcomed the opportunity to engage in a fresh and challenging conversation, acknowledging the unpredictability of the questions he would face.
