For a while, it felt like David Anders was everywhere. After getting his start playing British antagonist Julian Sark in "Alias" alongside Jennifer Garner, he kept being cast in other (often villainous) roles for all of your favorite TV shows — including "House," "Criminal Minds," "Once Upon a Time," "The Vampire Diaries," and even "The Magicians." When asked about getting typecast, he told Complex, "We either have J.J. Abrams to thank or to blame for me forever being pigeonholed. You know what? I love to do it. It's a lot of fun. I think everybody has a villain in them."

In that same interview, Anders explained that what attracted him to "iZombie" and, specifically, the role of Blaine DeBeers was the show's more fun aspects, saying, "I've played the bad guy, I've played the heavy, but I haven't been allowed to play the humor to this point. I've been sarcastic in past work, but there's a lot of great funny lines that I get to say." Since the show wrapped, however, the actor seems to have slowed down, with less than a handful of single-episode appearances.

Despite that fact, Anders has kept busy, having continued to attend fan conventions and sharing other snippets of his life on his X account, which he has claimed is a way of sharing his personality with fans of his work.
