Olli Haaskivi
from Back To One Hosted by Filmmaker Magazine
You know Olli Haaskivi from his work in series such as "Winning Time", "Manifest", and "The Sinner," and films like "Motherless Brooklyn", "Nancy" and of course, this Summer's blockbuster "Oppenheimer," where he played scientist Edward Condon. On this episode he shares his experience of working with Christopher Nolan on that film (which he says seemed less sprawling than some student films he's worked on!), why he felt the freedom to bring his ideas and "all of himself" (spoiler: Nolan is not afraid of actors!), and how all this affected the work in the moment. Plus he talks about his "this IS the job" approach to auditioning, something post-strike that he'd like to see implemented about the work, why you can't get to the great stuff "without risking that it might all go off the rails," 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
