Drew Starkey recalls his last day on ‘Outer Banks’ set: ‘It was totally bittersweet’

Drew Starkey has revealed that he “cried for a solid two hours” after filming his final scene for Outer Banks.

The 32-year-old actor recently appeared on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, where he explained why he felt “sentimental” over the Netflix series ending.

“It was totally bittersweet. We spent seven years on that show and those are my best friends and I felt, the last couple months of filming, I thought I was fine,” Drew said, who plays Rafe Cameron in Outer Banks.

“I thought I was a sociopath. I was like, ‘I feel nothing, I’m ready to get out of here, I don’t care,’” he continued.

But Drew said it hit him later on. 

‘“The last shot of my last scene, right when they yelled ‘cut,’ I was just weeping. Like, constantly,” he said.

“I was just weeping. Like, constantly,” he continued. “I cried for a solid two hours and crew members kept coming up to me, I was like, ‘I’m good.’ And then someone would walk up and I’d [cry].”

“It was like all these memories flooding back. I started the show when I was 25. I’m 32 now. So it was such a sentimental time,” added the Queer star.

For those unversed, the fifth and final season of Outer Banks is set to premiere on Netflix on August 20.
