Mia Wasikowska takes questions exclusively from users of Uinterview.com about her new movie Jane Eyre.
-
Q: Hi Mia. This is Raven from San Francisco. Jane Eyre is such an iconic novel. Were you intimidated at all by taking on this role?
- Raven Keller - A: She’s a character that has lived for many generations, so when you think about how old the story is, it’s a real testament to her character; people still connect with her now. With an original character, the audience takes what you give them. With Jane, people already have an idea of who she is – they really know her character. So there’s an obligation to hopefully deliver so that people will connect and believe you as her.
-
Q: How did you prepare for the role?
- Raven Keller - A: I did a lot of research, and I read the books again and went through and underlined things I thought were important to remember. I looked at a lot of visual references as well. I like to really understand who they are. And I made sure I was comfortable with the language, because it’s not a language we really use any more – very poetic and lush.
-
Q: Also, could you please tell us what it was like working with Michael Fassbender?
- Kathy Horsfall - A: I think that we got on so well from the beginning, and when you get on with someone where you have to have that same kind of relationship in the movie – half your work is done. So, it really helped. And we also had a similar way of working, and we were able to counter the intensity of the material and the drama of the material with a lot of fun; we were able to use that and channel it into the scene.
-
Q: Hi Mia. It’s Kathy from Colorado. I was wondering if you could share some funny stories from the Jane Eyre film set.
- Kathy Horsfall - A: Oh, so many! We just had a lot of fun. Yeah, I can’t remember, but there was definitely a lot of laughing. It made it very easy.
