This week, Krista takes a look back at her 2020 conversation with Amanda Seyfried. At the time, Seyfried had recently starred as Marion Davies in Mank, David Fincher’s film about the screenwriter Herman J. Mankiewicz. Just a few months after this conversation was recorded, that performance earned Seyfried her first Oscar nomination for Best Supporting Actress.
In the years since, Seyfried has hit a new stride in her career – earning wide-spread critical acclaim for her portrayal of Elizabeth Holmes in The Dropout including an Emmy win last year and a Golden Globe win this past January.
In this interview, Seyfried discusses her experience preparing for Mank, shares why working with Fincher is such a singular experience, and explains how it made her think differently about her own approach to the work.
