Jeff Hiller
from Back To One Hosted by Filmmaker Magazine
It is extremely hard not to love Jeff Hiller's character Joel, opposite Bridget Everett's Sam, on the hit HBO series "Somebody Somewhere." Their friendship is sweet, revelatory, and concerningly codependent, all at the same time. On this episode, he talks about how he got good at auditioning while wondering if he'd ever play someone with an inner life, "or a name." He tells the story of landing "Joel," the surprising connections he shares with the character, the secret ingredient that makes his chemistry with Everett work so well, and much more. Back To One is the in-depth, no-nonsense, actors-on-acting podcast from Filmmaker Magazine. In each episode, host Peter Rinaldi invites one working actor to do a deep dive into their unique process, psychology, and approach to the craft. Follow Back To One on Instagram
