Bryton James Talks Chancellor-Winters Drama

“The writing has been fantastic to create a very rich environment for drama because no matter what, if anybody disagrees with each other, it’s a little bit deeper because it’s family relationships,” the actor mused to Soaps In Depth. “And then Devon even has his significant other on the board, too. So any time Abby may disagree, it’s going to cause some problems, too.”

As for his alter-ego’s unwavering self-efficacy: “He has very strong beliefs. I know sometimes he’s a little stubborn and will go against his real feelings if he’s trying to be loyal to family. I think his loyalty to family perhaps sometimes outshines his… intelligence. But of course, Devon can admit when he’s wrong. Usually, his instincts have been right most of the time throughout his life, so he has a reason to trust them.

“He’s a little rough around the edges. He didn’t grow up in this world like the Abbotts and the Newmans. I think it’s fun, though, to play that. It’s fun to play that he’s a little hotheaded in these corporate environments. And it’s fun to have some pushback too. I love the stuff with Jason [Thompson, Billy Abbott].”
