00:00It sounded so ambitious and so unlike anything I had heard that Marvel had ever done.
00:07I couldn't quite see it, but the artists involved were so incredible, and I was like, let's go.
00:19Like, it just felt like a dive into, like, an ocean of who knows.
00:23I'm Katherine Hahn, and this is the timeline of my career.
00:36Andy Anderson, Benjamin Barry, please come in.
00:42Hi, welcome.
00:44It was like a long audition process.
00:46I was still in Crossing Jordan.
00:47This was during the hiatus, I believe.
00:50It worked out perfectly.
00:50I had to do a couple auditions, first with the casting director, then with the producers,
00:55and then finally there was, like, a chemistry read with Kate.
01:00I can't remember whose office it was, but it was at Paramount, which was, like, a huge deal
01:05to have to, like, go through those hallowed gates for me.
01:11I felt like I was in, like, you know, one of the player.
01:15Like, I couldn't believe I was, like, driving through with my, like, Honda.
01:19Like, I found the space.
01:20Like, someone was, like, right here.
01:22Like, there's a space, like, for me.
01:24Like, the whole thing was, like, this is bananas.
01:27And I went in.
01:29I met Kate.
01:30I was, like, you know, when you first meet a star, you're, like, so out of body because
01:37you're, like, I've seen you so many times so many other places.
01:40And you're, like, oh, and she was so lovely.
01:44Andy, um, that wasn't the Chinese.
01:48It's Mike.
01:49Mike.
01:50Yeah, what do I do?
01:51What do I do?
01:52Talk to him.
01:53We started the audition and my cell phone rang.
01:57And I was, like, kind of ignored it.
01:59And then I thought I had turned it off.
02:01And then it happened again.
02:03We were doing the therapist scene.
02:04And I picked it up.
02:05It was my friend Patrick, who was, like, what the fuck is going on?
02:08And I was, like, I tried to, like, make a joke with him about, like, I'm sorry, I'm
02:11in the middle of a session.
02:12And I, like, hung up the phone.
02:14And they kind of, like, very politely laughed.
02:17But I tried to make it a part of the scene.
02:20Oh, my God.
02:21But I guess it worked, I mean, clearly.
02:24But that was, like, actor No-No 101.
02:26The fact that my cell phone was, like, on the couch next to me is, like, also an indication
02:30of how out of body I was at that audition.
02:32I think this whole plan sounds a little immature.
02:36Oh, God, I am so relieved.
02:41Me, too.
02:42I was thinking that the whole time.
02:44I mean, what kind of man is going to sit around his bathrobe all day picking his nose
02:47while his wife goes out and works?
02:49I don't know, Shep.
02:49That was the dreamiest because here was a big budget in Connecticut.
02:56It was the detail and the crafts just on a production level were just, I was in awe.
03:02You would go into that house and you would, like, I just remember the feeling of, like,
03:07opening up drawers and seeing, like, period silverware in there and everything that you'd
03:13possibly want.
03:15Like, I just felt, like, enveloped in the experience of being in that age and in that area and that
03:23neighborhood.
03:24And also the actors that I was around.
03:26I was so inspired by their choices, Michael Shannon, Kate Winslet, David Harbour, who played my husband, Leonardo DiCaprio, and then Sam Mendes.
03:36I just, he came from the theater.
03:38So it was a way of feeling like, oh, right, I can bring my whole, there's not, like, my theater self and my film and TV self.
03:48Like, I can have that experience as one.
03:51That was the beginning of that learning process for me.
03:54I didn't have to, like, tap dance and stand on my mark.
03:57Like, I could connect the both.
04:00And that was the same time I did Step Brothers, which was, like, a complete tone shift.
04:04And also, but also felt the same in a different way.
04:07Like, muscularly, it felt like I was able to have this kind of anarchic feeling while on camera that I didn't think I was able to have beforehand.
04:20Hi.
04:20Hi.
04:21I'm Alice.
04:22I'm Derek's wife.
04:23Hi.
04:24Is it true that you struck Derek in the face and he fell from the treehouse?
04:27Yeah.
04:28He asked me to.
04:29Oh, that's the most amazing thing I've ever heard.
04:30Um, I want you to know that tonight I am going to pleasure myself to the image of you doing that to Derek.
04:36Adam McKay wrote an incredible script and we would do it once as written and then we would go off.
04:42And sometimes it would have zero to do with any story that was on the page.
04:48And, I mean, Chauncey Riley and I, our story could have been so much darker than what was ultimately on camera.
04:58Oh, hi.
04:59My name is Jim.
05:00I want to suck my dick for money.
05:01No!
05:02It's just me.
05:03Oh, my God.
05:04Hi.
05:05What are you doing?
05:05This is the men's bathroom.
05:06Happy anniversary.
05:08It's our second date.
05:10What?
05:10In our bathroom scene, we had planned a murder and a cover-up as a way to, you know, it got real dark, some of those improvs.
05:19But Adam really did allow us to go there.
05:22I think that's why I keep using the word anarchy because it really felt that way.
05:26And the pleasure and the trust and the faith that he gave us as performers to be able to, like, jump off that cliff was so thrilling.
05:41And that feeling of, like, I just wanted it, I just felt very greedy for it and the work to come.
05:51Like, that was the feeling that I really wanted more of, was that feeling.
05:58That, like, you could do takes that were like, oh, and then, but that was because then you knew that there was something maybe on the other side that was going to be, like, you had to get through that thing that was shit city to find something that was, like, magic on the other side.
06:16And that was a real, um, real thrill.
06:20Do you know Joe Biden?
06:21Mm-hmm.
06:22He's on my celebrity sex list.
06:24Well, he is my celebrity sex list.
06:26Oh, trust me, you can do better than Joe.
06:28Oh, no, I don't think.
06:30It's crazy to think about Jen Barkley now, or at least, like, years after that show wrapped and, like, who we got to see in Washington, uh, emerged during that last administration.
06:42Yeah, she was kind of modeled on a bunch of different humans, but, but I would say would be the person that just didn't even give a shit about any party.
06:53Uh, it's just about money and power.
06:56So her loyalty was nowhere but just winning.
07:00Mike Schur and those writers were pretty prescient, if that's the word, um, in terms of what was around the corner.
07:09Just so crazy.
07:11There's still some of my dearest pals in the world are those women, and I think Mike and that writing staff, like, were able to write so brilliantly to each character's strength.
07:25It was like you would open it up, and it was like, of course.
07:29Like, it was so perfect for each person.
07:31And I remember, um, the dance parties that were, would take place in the hair and makeup trailer after every lunch before hair and makeup touch-ups that Amy would, would spearhead.
07:43She was such a fabulous number one on a call sheet.
07:45Yeah, the fact that, like, we're still dear pals is such a testament to that group of humans.
07:51They made me feel so welcome.
07:52Um, still no sex.
07:55Lost count.
07:56Six months?
07:57Well, that's a long time.
07:59You know, I feel like there's a lot of couples that probably go through dry spells.
08:02Not healthy couples, no.
08:04First of all, I saw myself so deeply in Rachel, and the making of it, which was kind of like a, I think a three-week period, six-day weeks.
08:12We shot it maybe a couple blocks from where I lived in Silver Lake.
08:17We ended up using my minivan because the car that they had rented couldn't fit the camera equipment.
08:22So, like, I would find, like, power bar wrappers and, like, crinkled water bottles in my back, in my, you know, the trunk for weeks after.
08:32And I'd be like, like, it was just such a, it felt the closest I had felt to, like, the magic of doing theater with an ensemble that I had felt since school.
08:43Like, it was the deepest dive in the shortest amount of time.
08:48Like, we just dove right into it, and it just felt like play.
08:53It was like this, it was the smallest.
08:56Like, Jimmy Frona, our DP, who went on to do Transparent and I Love Dick, he just was there to catch it.
09:04Like, we were there for him.
09:06He was there for us.
09:08So, it was just felt like it was so performance first.
09:12Like, it was, like, just felt like a shift.
09:14It was just a new way of working on camera.
09:18So, it just, all the crew and the cast felt like we were, the intention was set all together.
09:26And it was, so, it was a beautiful, beautiful filmmaking experience.
09:30They're the ones that tell you things like, oh, baby, I'm going to be the one that gets to see you for real.
09:37I'm going to help get you down off of this pole, blah, blah, blah.
09:41We call them Captain Savo.
09:42Captain Savo, that's hilarious.
09:47Internally, as an actor, it was a game changer for me as to what I could do on camera and what I was, like, capable of, I think.
09:58So, now I've got just crunchy, crispy old lady eggs.
10:05Just, it's like a...
10:07Yes, I definitely needed a guide since I was raised Catholic.
10:10I was a recovering Catholic.
10:11She hooked me up with Rabbi Susan Goldberg, who is incredible and still a friend.
10:16And a special, magical, brilliant being.
10:21And we, you know, I knew I never would be able to become a rabbi or know all of the knowledge.
10:29Like, I never would even pretend to be able to do that.
10:33But Rabbi Susan was a dancer.
10:35She's a mother.
10:36She's like a lot of other things besides rabbi.
10:39And so I was able to kind of absorb her stillness and her eye contact and her centeredness, which is, like, not my natural rhythm or my motor.
10:52It was presented to all of us as, like, a workshop over the summer in New York City, just to see, like, as an experiment, if it was possible, like, what it would feel like.
11:16We started hearing the music that Faith had written, and it was like, okay, there is something here that feels right, because after all that the show had gone through, and it felt very joyful, and it felt like words weren't possible, and it felt like there was the only way out was, like, through singing.
11:39It just made sense.
11:41Like, there was, like, you couldn't, talking wasn't possible.
11:45Like, words or just language wasn't going to cut it.
11:49And so we all just followed Joey and Faith's lead in diving into this grand experiment and wanted to leave it on this beautiful, you know, high note, no pun intended, but just, like, with a big number rather than, like, a downbeat chord.
12:10I will forever be so proud that this show was able to somewhat normalize and make visible and humanize the trans community
12:26for people that maybe had never had a chance to meet or see or just have an experience with a trans person, and that, to me, is just, like, you know, always storytelling is an empathy machine.
12:44I will forever, ever be proud to have been a part of something that did that.
12:49So, where are they now?
12:51Outside by the chicken coops.
12:53How are they?
12:54Don't answer that.
12:55I don't care.
12:55I love horror as a genre.
12:58I am a huge horror fan.
12:59I loved the scale of this movie.
13:02I knew it was so teeny tiny.
13:04I also felt, like, the emotional story in it so loud and clear.
13:09I love that it was, like, a Hansel and Gretel-type fairy tale.
13:12It was really cold, though, in Philadelphia.
13:16Felt like a very family in-house production.
13:19Like, he's a fiercely loyal person.
13:21So, like, that crew, like, a lot of those people, like, he had worked with, like, since Sixth Sense.
13:28Like, it felt like I was walking into a family that he'd worked with for years and years and years and years.
13:34Barely any sets.
13:35Like, it was, like, basically that house and then a couple of other scenes in a townhouse.
13:40And then the cruise ship, which was hilarious.
13:43We had a couple of scenes that we had to shoot of me on a cruise ship where we had to do it while it was de-boarding and before it was boarded again.
13:51So, we had, like, a very short amount of time to do it before it took off.
13:56So fun.
13:57I mean, I really wanted to.
13:59That was always a bucket list thing to be in a horror movie.
14:02Did she find some marijuana?
14:07Good morning.
14:08I Love Dick came about because Joey and I, I think between seasons of Transparent, we're thinking of something to do together.
14:15And there were a couple things on the table that seemed really interesting.
14:19And this one had been in the adaptation process with an amazing playwright from Chicago named Sarah Govins.
14:26The source material by Chris Krause is so gorgeous and such required reading, I think.
14:33I was so turned on by the idea of jumping into this because I knew it would feel so uncomfortable to jump into a woman whose whole being is just want, unapologetically, without shame.
14:51You know, without any sort of pause or, like, embarrassment or, like, you know, she embarrasses herself over and over again.
14:59Like, it's, you know, from the outside, it's like, oh.
15:01But, like, from the inside, she's just going for it.
15:04And I was excited about jumping into that.
15:06And to work with Kevin Bacon and the delicious Griffin Dunn, this amazing cast in Marfa.
15:15It was a really hard place to be in, uh, as an actor.
15:21And it was a real thrilling creative endeavor.
15:24I mean, I think any actor would say this is there is a part of every part that's aspirational.
15:43Every single one of them.
15:44Like, all of these.
15:45I wish I had her, her chutzpah.
15:48Carla was just fabulous to play.
15:50I mean, we would always joke, I felt like I was in Avatar getting ready for Carla in the hair and makeup trailer.
15:56Like, it took so long.
15:58But it was so fun.
16:00And to have that amount of confidence felt very powerful.
16:05It was really, really fun.
16:07It's because we love our kids.
16:10Because we love our stupid, selfish, ungrateful little shit faces.
16:13That's why.
16:14We love them so much that we would do literally anything for them.
16:19You know, I feel like it was, like, again, like, it was, like, an aspirational thing.
16:23Like, to have that amount of, like, fuck you, as, like, a mom was, like, who gets to do that?
16:29So it felt very much, like, for the mothers.
16:33And that was really fun.
16:35Having a baby is an immoral act.
16:37Overpopulation, climate change, rise of neo-fascism.
16:41Did you take your Valium?
16:43Yes.
16:43Fine.
16:44I loved this part so much.
16:47I wanted it with all of my heart.
16:48It was a big leap of faith for her to cast me because, you know, I didn't have a lot of big, huge stuff under my belt.
16:56And I knew this part.
17:00I just knew her.
17:01And I knew I could.
17:03I just knew her.
17:04I flew to New York and back in the same day to meet Tamara.
17:08We had rosé and a cheese and charcuterie plate.
17:12Wine was definitely spilled.
17:14We just chattered nonstop.
17:16I fell madly in love.
17:17I'm forever grateful for being able to be a part of it because this was one of the most special of my career, for sure.
17:25Well, this experience and working with Giamatti.
17:30Giamats.
17:31I love him so madly.
17:32And Kaylee Carter.
17:33It was, yeah, this was a really special one for me.
17:36It really is a biological bummer that we are told over and over again that it's possible to have kids, to have babies later and later when it's actually, like, quite difficult.
17:48And that our most fertile years are, like, our most money-making years.
17:53It's, it's, it's, sucks.
17:55I just kept thinking of all the women that had to go through it.
17:59And that Tamara was able to tell that story with humor and grace.
18:04It was, uh, it was like a real tiny thread hole in a needle.
18:10So, I was very impressed with the writing of it and all of it.
18:14Hey, remember, we used to, we used to drive this way every Saturday morning on the way to hockey practice.
18:22Do you remember?
18:22Yeah.
18:23Remember how freezing it was?
18:25It would always still be dark when we got there.
18:27You hated that.
18:28Oh.
18:29Remember, you were so happy when I quit.
18:31Oh, God, I was thrilled.
18:33First of all, it's Tom Parada.
18:35You know, I think his, his work always lends itself to such incredible adaptations.
18:41And I was curious that he was curious about this.
18:45There is something about this chapter of a woman's life being always kind of, like, shrouded in this invisibility.
18:54Like, you know, once she has kids and once, like, the kids leave the house, that, like, her life just becomes kind of, like, over.
19:02And I was excited about exploring that it's not, like, that there's so much more life and that a lot of that life includes her sexuality.
19:15I was excited about, about that and the duality of trying to raise a son in this age of internet porn.
19:28And that a kid is learning so much about sex and intimacy from their devices is also something that's, like, and then you throw that kid in a college and then you expect them to know about consent and what sex looks like and all that stuff was just, like, felt very fertile, no pun intended, as material.
19:52Look, it's the star of the show.
19:56Agnes!
19:58I'm sorry, what did you say?
20:00Oh, I brought my pet rabbit for your magic act.
20:04This is something I never saw coming.
20:05I went in for a general, like, I had no idea what it was for.
20:10Like, it was just to kind of say hi and with no expectation.
20:13And those usually lead to nothing or something, like, years down the line.
20:17Like, I had no idea, but I always knew that if I were ever to be in a Marvel sitch, it would, the best thing would be to be a villain.
20:25You know, those are always, like, in my mind, the coolest parts.
20:28And I had played Doc Ock into the Spider-Verse, which I love that movie.
20:33For this, they called me back, like, two or three days later with an offer for this show, this series, to meet with Matt Checkman, the director, and Jack Schaefer, the writer, and Mary Levanos, the producer.
20:45They had the whole series laid out.
20:47They had Agatha Harkness, the comics of her.
20:51So I knew then that what I was being pitched was a centuries-old witch that touches on a lot of, in a lot of different places in the Marvel Universe.
21:00And she had been so many things to Wanda and to a lot of other people in the Marvel Universe.
21:06But in this case, she would be, like, the antagonist to Wanda and would have her own theme song.
21:13And I was like, what?
21:15And that, it would take place over different decades as Wanda was kind of working through her grief.
21:22And once we got to, like, the rehearsal process and starting to work on the 50s episode, which we shot in front of a live audience, and we started to dig into the old sitcoms together, and then I started to have the fittings.
21:37Then it started to feel like something was being made that felt very singular and very special because even the, like, integrity of each decade, there was something that was boiling underneath, which felt, like, so fun.
21:59Like, I knew, like, because I knew where I was going, we all knew where we were headed.
22:05Like, that made it, the integrity of each decade, so much more fun.
22:11Like, it was really a special ride.
22:13And that Kevin Feige really did give us, like, such free reign and that this was his idea.
22:18Like, it was a very unexpected and, like, an incredible ride.
22:25So hard.
22:26So worth it.
22:28You have no idea how dangerous you are.
22:33You're supposed to be a myth, a being capable of spontaneous creation.
22:39Here you are, using it to make breakfast for dinner.
22:45We shot that episode full-on pandemic, like, 100 and something degrees, and it was a whole team that built her.
22:54You know, like, that was, like, costumes, you know, my amazing wardrobe person, Beth, she would have to type to my kids because I couldn't deal with my phone.
23:06Like, it was so ironic that this is the moment in which I'm supposed to feel, like, the most powerful.
23:11And I felt so helpless because I couldn't do anything.
23:14But it was actually, like, the first time I was, like, lifted up on those wires, saw all the humans that were, like, responsible for, like, getting it together.
23:27Like, I really almost burst into tears because it was such a journey, and I was filled with such gratitude of the collaboration.
23:38It was such a metaphor for making movies and making TV.
23:43It's, like, doesn't happen in a vacuum.
23:44It just really does take a whole circus, like, to put it together.
23:49So it was a really moving day, actually.
