Nina Hoss is one of our most respected stage, film, and television actors working internationally. She is known for her collaborations with director Christian Petzold in films such as "Barbara" and "Phoenix," as well as "Tar" opposite Cate Blanchett, the celebrated series "Homeland," and her latest "Hedda," opposite Tessa Thompson. On this episode, she talks about what drew her to Nia DaCosta's bold new reimagining of the Ibsen's classic. She gives us a peek into her process, talks about the "journey of filmmaking" she and Petzold embarked on together, environment as communication, how "The Cherry Orchard" in Brooklyn "landed at the right time," finding enjoyment in "checking out the possibilities," why she sometimes rehearses in German when she's acting in English, and much more.
