In honor of his new netflix show 'Maid,' NickRobinson spoke to his friend ChloeGMoretz about the emotional toll of taking on more complex roles.
, adapted from Stephanie Land’s bestselling memoir of the same name, is a meticulous and agonizing look at one woman’s struggle on several fronts, from trying to eke out a living for her and daughter, to extracting herself from an abusive relationship with the father of her child.
ROBINSON: Yeah, we shot it in Victoria B.C. which is on Vancouver Island. We went up there in August of 2020 and it felt like entering a different world. Shops were open and indoor dining was happening. There was this weird culture shock at first. We were there for eight months. We couldn’t have visitors or see friends and family. So, that was its own challenge. I’m from Seattle and the show is shot in the Pacific Northwest, so it felt like being home.
MORETZ: Did you rely on the book much? Or did you stay away from it and focus on what was in front of you?urce material before. I’ve always regretted it because no matter what, there’s always going to be something there that you can use. I wasn’t familiar with the book before the show, but after I read the first draft of the first script, I got the book. With Stephanie Land, the author, it’s really her story and everything she had to go through to provide for her daughter.
MORETZ: From watching your career, it’s been nice to see you make these shifts into heavier material. How has the transition been? I feel like I’m going through the same thing.
