Jason Bateman is living dangerously.

The actor-director enters this Emmy cycle with a problem most performers would envy: two acclaimed limited series, two wildly different roles and a directing-producing resume that keeps expanding even as he approaches the age when peers start thinking about slowing down. “Our tolerance for taking on more actually grows even as we start to approach the age when we’re supposed to [slow down],” Bateman says. “You gain so much knowledge through your experience that you just want to have the fortunate position of having a job that asks all of those things you’ve learned.”
