“I cover my bald spot more often than I used to,” Scott Foley said humbly, adding that different things are attractive to different people.

The Talk: Scott Foley The Country House Review

Scott Foley is starring in the play The Country House, which opens June 3 in Los Angeles. Why did he decide to take this on? Foley said that he wanted to do this during his vacation, but his wife is less thrilled, because it cuts into their vacation time.

The play was written by Daniel Margulies, and it is being directed by Tony winner Daniel Sullivan. Blythe Danner, Sarah Swallow, and many more star in what might be described as a riff on Chekhov.

There’s even a scene that caused Danner to ask Foley about his choice of underwear. You can see Foley and friends in The Country House at The Geffen Playhouse in Los Angeles.

The play is about a family of actors, and Foley recently directed a lot of his family members in the upcoming film Let’s Kill Ward’s Wife. “Don’t ever direct your family,” Foley joked.

Foley said he does not want to work with his wife again, and Carnie Wilson agreed that it can be hard working with your spouse. Meanwhile, his four-year-old daughter recently completed a run in The Sound of Music at a community theater.
