Emma Stone reveals she was 'terrified' while shooting Poor Things and felt she was 'failing' her director Yorgos Lanthimos
Emma Stone revealed that she was 'terrified' about 'failing' in her role as Bella Baxter in the 2023 film Poor Things during a joint cover interview with director Yorgos Lanthimos for Variety.
However, the Cruella star remarked that she was able to voice her concerns to Lanthimos, with whom she collaborated on the 2018 feature The Favorite, and that his style of working helped her regain her confidence. The Academy Award-winning performer then opened up about what attracted her to the role of Baxter, a young woman whose brain was replaced by that of her unborn child following a suicide attempt. The filmmaker also recalled scheduling 'weeks and weeks of just playing games, laughing and being comfortable with each other' in order to build a rapport among the cast members prior to the start of filming.
