First, Rebecca Ford talks to Thuso Mbedu about her incredibly challenging debut film role in The Woman King, and how Viola Davis led the cast with not just strength, but humor. Then David Canfield talks to Billy Eichner about the long journey to Bros, and why he's always been ready to be more than Billy on the Street.
