On working with Steve McQueen: “I’ve been saying to my agent for years, if someone like Steve McQueen asked me to meet him, or audition for him, please make sure that that happens,” she says. But she was adamant that she wasn’t into “just doing another war movie. We’ve kind of had our fill of that. As soon as [Steve] started to explain to me that it was going to follow this mother-son relationship and that we were staying back home with everyone else… I was completely hooked.”

On whether she has considered the political implications of the film: “I haven’t.” Then she backtracks: “Well, that’s a lie. I’m fully expecting this to start a conversation in the way that it should and in the way that, in particular, [Steve’s] work does, and always seems to, because he executes it so powerfully and so brilliantly. But to be honest, to hear from you, someone who has a finger on the political pulse and making that point, like, that’s going to be an essential, uncomfortable conversation, I think, for a lot of people to have.”
