8 Nov
Summary
- Deutch's decade-long journey to play Jean Seberg in Linklater's film
- Mastering multiple dialects and accents for the complex role
- Deutch's admiration for classic Hollywood and actors like Katharine Hepburn
Zoey Deutch, a rising star in Hollywood, has taken on the transformative role of iconic actress Jean Seberg in Richard Linklater's upcoming film "Nouvelle Vague." The project, which Linklater had been developing for over a decade, required Deutch to immerse herself in Seberg's world, mastering multiple dialects and accents to portray the complexity of the character.
Deutch, now 30 years old, has been preparing for this role for the past two years, studying French intensively to capture Seberg's unique speech patterns. The actress also drew inspiration from classic Hollywood, particularly the performances of Katharine Hepburn, as she continues to evolve her craft and seek out meaningful, challenging roles.
As "Nouvelle Vague" prepares to debut on Netflix, reaching a wider audience, Deutch remains grounded about the industry's fickleness. She has adopted a healthier perspective, acknowledging the cyclical nature of fame and focusing on the work itself. Deutch's dedication and passion for her craft are evident in her performance, which is poised to be one of the most transformative of her career.
