What Hollingsworth Watches
Hollingsworth listed "Ozark," "Arrested Development" and "Severance" as three of his favorite series to binge-watch.
"I've always been a big 'Ozark' fan, and I love ending the night with 'Arrested Development' too. I've watched the entire series four times now," he said. "Ben Stiller, who directed 'Severance,' is a very talented director, and all of the actors are phenomenal in that one. 'Joe Pickett' is on Paramount+ and it is an incredible show."
Hollingsworth revealed that some of his favorite movies include the classic "Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid," "12 Monkeys," as well as "A Few Good Men." "I did the stage version of 'A Few Good Men' when I got out of theater school," he said. "There are so many great movies," he admitted.
"I'm a huge Brad Pitt fan, and I love all of the Quentin Tarantino movies," he said. "Aaron Sorkin is one of my favorite writers."
"The new 'Top Gun: Maverick' film reminded me of how much I loved the first one," he said. "Tom Cruise has still got it."
Favorite Ways to Relax and Fave Foods
To unwind and relax, he enjoys running in nature and playing hockey. "I love connecting with nature and being around it. It's a big de-stressor for me," he said. "It makes life simple, takes you out of the external stresses of the world, and it brings you back to your core."
His favorite cheat meal is ice cream. "I've been known to finish a tub of Häagen-Dazs in no time," he said.
