Mikey Madison On Being Cast In Sean Baker’s Mysterious Competition Title ‘Anora’: “I Was Floored” — Ones To Watch
Mikey Madison says she was 'floored' by invitation to star in Sean Baker's mysterious Cannes Competition title 'Anora' — Ones To Watch.
It was definitely the most preparation, physically and emotionally I’ve ever done for a character, because Sean likes to mix professional actors with newcomers, and I wanted to be so confident and sure of who I was that I would fit into that environment in an honest and truthful way.” I worked with a dialect coach, and then I got to New York early before filming so that I could meet lots of women from the same area that my character was from, talk to them, take little pieces of their voices and meld it with what my vision was for how she would speak. Playing Atkins meant that Madison was one of the few cast members who knew about Tarantino’s plan to rewrite history and spare Sharon Tate from her real-life fate in the film’s violent climax.
