Sunita Mani

from Back To One Hosted by Filmmaker Magazine

You know the multitalented Sunita Mani from "Glow," "Spirited," "Mr. Robot," or "Save Yourselves!" And now, just this year, she has roles in so many projects (like "The Wild," "Death of a Unicorn," "A Nice Indian Boy," "Government Cheese," "His and Hers," "The Roses") that one wonders how she has to time to do it all. On this episode, she takes us back to where it all started, improv comedy, and explains how being willing to fall down and get back up has served her work. She details the "emptying out" process that she needs to do before a new role, the benefits and drawbacks of learning on sets rather than in a classroom, the lack of regret in turning things down, why new underwear is so important for her latest role, 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
