The actor recently opened up about his career while promoting his latest project.
Ahead of the August 2025 premiere of the FX series Alien: Earth, Timothy spoke in-depth with The Hollywood Reporter about his staying power, reboots, and more.
“I don’t have famous people problems, and yet I get to work with, you name them,” he said about his established level of fame. “It’s a sweet spot, and I may finally be ruining it with these next couple gigs. But at this point in my life? F--k it.”
“Every experience I’ve had revisiting characters or working with the same people again, I’m batting a thousand in terms of it being really gratifying,” Timothy said of his appreciation of reprising prior characters. “I highly recommend it. And I don’t have a problem with people remaking or rebooting things.”
“I mean, everybody goes to Broadway to see the same couple plays every few years. It’s such a dumb, shallow argument to say Hollywood has no new ideas just because they’re rebooting things,” he added.
The Emmy nominee shared that he is content with his place in Hollywood, almost 30 years after his first onscreen appearance.
“I like the jobs I’ve had, and I like the people I’ve been allowed to work with. I’d be happy to just work with them again in whatever capacity they’ll have me,” he told the outlet.
In addition to Alien: Earth, Timothy also has a few other high-profile projects lined up. Reprising his role as James Stacy, he will be part of the cast of The Adventures of Cliff Booth, which is a standalone film starring Brad Pitt in the title role based on his Academy Award-winning character in Quentin Tarantino’s Once Upon a Time in Hollywood.
On the television front, in January 2025, it was announced that Timothy would join the cast of the upcoming Apple TV+ series, Lucky, starring Anya Taylor-Joy, as the title character, according to Variety. Timothy is set to play Lucky’s father.
