For any fans of the global phenomenon series, The Chosen, this episode will be a treat for you! I sit down with Kirk B. R. Woller, the actor who portrays, Gaius, the Roman centurion.
Kirk is a classically trained American actor whose career spans more than three decades and over 170 film and television credits. Known for his roles in Minority Report, Poseidon, The X-Files, and CSI, Kirk has built a reputation for thoughtful, emotionally grounded performances. Most recently, he’s captured the hearts of viewers worldwide as Gaius, the Roman centurion in The Chosen. His portrayal brings humanity and depth to a man torn between empire and faith, culminating in one of the series’ most powerful redemption arcs. Beyond acting, Kirk is a mentor and teacher of “The Woller Technique,” helping actors refine their craft through authenticity and truth. In this exclusive conversation, we discuss his life in film, the making of The Chosen, and how both the actor and the character are navigating themes of surrender, grace, and transformation.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
