Cristin Milioti talks about the preparation she did to get into character as Sofia Falcone while chatting with THR at 'The Penguin' premiere. Plus, she calls Colin Farrell an "incredible" scene partner.
00:00You know, a lot of people have been giving you a lot of praise for this role.
00:03What was it like to kind of step into this and maybe sort of shapeshift on screen?
00:08I mean, it was a dream. I've been dreaming of some, I mean, like it truly was, I hate the phrase, like a pinch me moment, but that's how it felt.
00:15Is that like, you know, I'm such a big Batman fan and I love Colin so much and I love this world so much.
00:21And so I was just thrilled. I was beside myself.
00:24And I think what Lauren has done is so gorgeous and brilliant and I was very excited.
00:28Yeah, well, Colin, of course, completely transforms in this role. What was it like having him as a scene partner?
00:34Incredible. He is an incredible actor and he's also a really beautiful human being.
00:39So it was really, like, incredible.
00:41I know you mentioned that you had gone out for other comic book adaptations as well.
00:47Can you share which ones?
00:49No, I don't think, I don't, I wouldn't want to share which ones because I just, I'm always like a little bit like, is that, I don't know.
00:55But they were meant to be who, everyone is like meant to get what they're meant to get.
01:01And I think I like really get why I, or I really understand why I didn't get those.
01:05I feel like very, I loved this project so much and I wouldn't have gotten to do this if I'd gotten the other ones.
01:10And what sort of research went into kind of getting ready for Sophia?
01:14Yeah. I definitely researched, like, what solitary confinement does to people, these sort of state-run hospitals, the type of environments they can be, you know, I did, I dove into that quite a bit.
