Why Julia Stiles (MissJuliaStiles) chased down Hustlers role
Julia Stiles was determined to be a part of filmmaker Lorene Scafaria’s, even if it meant working in craft service.
Since I was starting out as an actress — yeah. It’s also the first time, recently, that I was in a film and still thinking about it days and weeks after. So, we were going to get together; we were both working in New York, and we could only get together on the weekends. But, we both have young kids and didn’t have babysitters, so I was like, “Well, what if we have a playdate?” So, I brought my son to her apartment in Queens, and he proceeded to destroy her living room while we talked about point A to point B. She was really open, and I told her I wasn’t going to imitate her.
I think Lorene handled it really well and with nuance because you do meet Doug, who’s an otherwise good guy. He’s the outlier where he didn’t really deserve to have what happened to him, but for the most part, when you say “Wall Street guys,” I think of the ones who were throwing trash at them in the champagne room. That line really stuck out to me and resonated where she just says it point blank, “I don’t really feel bad for them. It’s just a taste of your own medicine.
Can you talk about working with a Lorene and what perspective she brought that male directors might not offer? Or, are female directors virtually no different than most male directors which makes their low employment numbers all the more baffling? Oh, it was so fun. We were staying at the Sheraton in Tacoma, Washington, but we made it like the Shangri-La. I never even been to the Shangri-La, so I don’t know what that means.
