00:00I don't know if I have irrational fears, something that does kind of freak me out though, I guess it are like tiny little holes
00:06That's disgusting like a bunch of dots
00:23Thank you
00:24You're a Scorpio. Do you feel like that sign reflects who you are?
00:29I think when you first meet me, I'm definitely more Libra and I give off that kind of more, you know, patient
00:36Balanced well-rounded person and then as you kind of get to know me more and more I reveal a much more Scorpio side to me
00:44What's your most irrational fear? I don't know if I have irrational fears. I feel as though I have
00:52Very real fears in my life
00:55I'm kind of becoming, you know, more and more aware that I'm about to die one day
01:00So you might as well just do whatever it is
01:02That's scaring you wherever your fear is wherever your anxiety is that's probably where you need to go
01:08Is there a type of horror you haven't done yet that you'd love to explore?
01:12Just something totally different just any
01:15Thing, but horror. I love love and that's something that I haven't really explored much of
01:21How do you spend a day off when you're not filming and you actually have some time to yourself?
01:26Probably have like a hot bath
01:28Some Epsom salts
01:30Read a book
01:32Eat something really nice cook something
01:35Really simple. That sounds like a good day
01:45You once impersonated Shelley Duvall from The Shining. If another horror icon role came your way
01:59Who will you want to play? Maybe Catherine Deneuve and Belle de Jour
02:05Do you ever watch your own performances back or do you avoid that?
02:08No, I've never you know like sat on my sofa and like put a movie on and just like watched it
02:15What was your first reaction to seeing Jacob Elordi in his full Frankenstein hair and makeup?
02:20I think first and foremost I actually felt quite emotional and
02:25Emotional on Guillermo del Toro's part because I know
02:28What a deeply personal story this is for him and you know for them to finally get to that point where they had their actor
02:36They had that guy and he was in the makeup and in the hair and I couldn't help but think
02:40What a special moment that was for Guillermo
02:43I was also taken by how comfortable Jacob was in the makeup in the hair
02:48He really owned and he was he was very grounded in it and he did a great job
02:52Fans are eager for another tie-west collaboration. Is there anything you can tease?
02:56I don't think there's anything else coming
02:58I think the trick is to quit while you're ahead and the fact that we were able to make three movies the way we did
03:04I think it's just kind of something that I'll forever look back up with great fondness, but I think now we have to
03:11move ahead
03:13What was the inspiration behind your character Elizabeth Levenza's costume and what is your favorite look of hers?
03:28Honestly, I've never worked on a film with a wardrobe quite like Frankenstein and I really mean that the costume designer Kate Hawley is
03:37Nothing, but remarkable her and her incredible team behind her the level of detail and intricacy that they thought through everything
03:46So it was truly a masterclass in costumes, and I can't believe that I got to buy this
03:52You're known for working with directors who have a very distinct vision. What's one directing choice that stuck with you?
03:58Well, I think the sign of a great director is
04:02One that really just kind of leaves you alone. I think that those are the most confident directors
04:08I think that they I just give you your space to to do what it is that you need to do
04:14Describe each of these co-stars in one word
04:17Jacob Elordi and Frankenstein very kind
04:20David Coren sweat and pearl a real gentleman
04:24Alexander Skarsgård and infinity port. He's funny
04:28Kid Cuddy. He's cool
04:31Are you dressing up for Halloween this year?
04:34Yeah, I mean, it's only August. It's so hot. I can't even imagine dressing up in anything right now, but I guess maybe a pumpkin
04:42I'll do something, but I'll have to think about it. Maybe, you know, it won't be a pumpkin this year. Maybe I'll I'll be
04:49I can't think I can't think I I'll I'll be
04:54It's September's problem. Yeah
