00:00I don't like liars
00:05Working with Steven he knows what to do with a camera like just a visual storyteller
00:09It's sometimes it's just a one-shot because that's gonna be the visual storytelling element of it. Would you kill for me George?
00:15It's an amazing script and it all came together really quickly
00:18It doesn't come alive really for me until I know who the director is
00:23And so when you know Soderbergh is gonna be directing it you you have a sense of how he's gonna shoot it and he always
00:28Invites you into that understanding
00:31If a situation presents itself, would you choose your marriage over everything else? This came along and
00:37I was just so relieved basically to get the opportunity to work with him again because she's unlike
00:43Any other character that I've really played in terms of my research. I worked with a psychotherapist and
00:50Some of the things she told me were basically this woman does not behave like a psychotherapist at all

01:02contentious character relationship
01:04To work through and every single scene has some kind of power struggle between us. It's not that kind of visit
01:11What kind of is it? Is it then Steven?
01:13No, we're trading podcasts and weird spy stories
01:17but it was very easy to get into the humanity of these folks because a lot of it was talking about the difference in culture between
01:22Like NCSC and mi6. It's a very dangerous line of work
01:27favorite part working with Steven and working with an ensemble cast like this Michael came it was file and
01:34Peter Sellers and being there if they had a love child, that would be George should we notify CIA?
01:40Of course, my character is suspected by everybody. So you have to sort of be like a glass of water
01:46You can't reveal too much or too little. It's you know and to allow the audience to feel what they want to feel
01:51Find the leak
