00:00I've always thought you had the hardest job because in all three films a lot of
00:04your gig is reacting silently, right? You're reacting to watching this man
00:10fight for his life. I was wondering if you could take me through what that
00:14process is like and is there anything you tap into?
00:16I really appreciate, I think, the idea of getting to act in silences. Like I
00:22always really loved that challenge, what you can communicate without words and
00:29I think something that felt particularly interesting this go-round is also to
00:35work inside of ASL. I think the way that that also changed my idea of performance
00:40and getting to work with Mila. This is her first time acting and she's remarkable,
00:47but I learned a lot from her in terms of everything that you can express without
00:55words in the way that I have always known how to express myself. So I think that
01:00was an exciting new thing to find at this point in playing this this character.
01:07How does that feel that your first time out the gate you're serving as an example?
01:11Yeah, well I feel really happy about that statement, but I want to say okay I did
01:16teach her some things. You know I did show her how to express herself, but she also taught
01:22me a lot too. So really I think it was her mostly teaching me not the other way around.
01:28I would look at her facial expressions, I would look at how she showed emotions, how
01:32she expressed herself, how she showed her character's reaction, how things looked so
01:37real. And I learned so much from her on this film, so I just want to thank her for teaching
01:42me all those things. And she made it easier for me to feel comfortable during this whole
01:47process because you know sometimes you can feel like it might be hard and it's challenging
01:52if you've never done it before, but having someone with her, like her on my team, she
01:56would come over and explain things to me, tell me about the characters, and then I would
02:00say okay I feel a lot more comfortable and it's easier for me to go ahead and do it and
02:05know how to react. So thank you Tessa.
02:07Aww. This is so much more wholesome than I planned on it being this way.
