Dark, Denim and Dangerous!

Ian Harding is definitely a hands-off type of teacher in this new spread from Da Man magazine.

The 24-year-old Pretty Little Liars actor chatted about his leading lady Lucy Hale, how long Mr. Fitz will be around and hitting the stage again in the future.

On staying employed: “[I've only read] up to the fourth book, since Ezra disappears after the relationship is discovered. I didn’t want to see when and how I would become unemployed again! TV Ezra is far more fleshed out, seeing as, (for now…) he seems likely to stick around, whereas, in the book version, Ezra leaves one third of the way through book four. The TV writers have to give him more baggage than he carried in the novels.”

On his relationship with Lucy: “We get along extremely well. We even speak in ‘baby voice’ to each other between takes. It nauseates the crew. She’s a pro, yes, but she has never made me feel like an amateur despite her six-year headstart in the business.”

On his heart being back on stage: “I would love to. In fact, I might as well say that I will. I don’t know when and where, but I need to do stage work again. I miss it. I miss how challenging it can be. I need to have that muscle stretched again.”
