The White House stars Greta Gerwig, Jodie Turner-Smith, and Adam Smith and is based on Don DeLillo’s novel of the same name. "But their characters met on this kind of equal footing and that's sometimes when chemistry happens because they're so generous and they're giving each other so much that they can stay in that moment.Blonde and three other Netflix movies to premiere at the Venice Film FestivalĪpart from Andrew Dominik’s movie, Noah Baumbach’s White House, Bardo, False Chronicle of a Handful of Truths, and Athena are also in the mix. "They hadn't worked together before that scene," Bert added.
"There's not a moment where you're kind of like, 'Ah, I'm gonna go to the toilet' or something. "You see the magic that happens because that's a long scene and you are gripped," Bert said. "They're these incredible actors of their generation."īert said that there was "palpable relief," in being given the luxury of directing two talented actors who could just sit down at a dining table and still hold viewers' attention. "They're contemporaries," Bert said of the stars. Steinfeld received critical acclaim and an Oscar nomination for her role in the 2010 film "True Grit." Pugh is known for her work in films like "Lady Macbeth," "Midsommar," and "Little Women."
Kate Bishop only has one proper fork in "Hawkeye." Marvel/Disney+Īlthough Steinfeld and Pugh are newcomers to the MCU, the stars are well-known in Hollywood. While the two eat the macaroni, Yelena confirms that Kate's done, that way she can add hot sauce to it. So, they incorporated that into the dialogue. "I'm like, 'Oh that's a big choice, because you've now gotta eat that for multiple takes.' And she's like, 'I'm in, I'm in it.' And she did."īertie said that Pugh "loves hot sauce," but Steinfeld's not as much of a fan. "Florence was like, 'Well, hot sauce has gotta go on the mac-and-cheese,'" Bertie recalled. The directors said that the character's decision was Pugh's idea, and the "Midsommar" actress had no problem eating the meal during the multiple takes that occurred while filming. "We were looking for something that we knew Kate was gonna throw as a weapon," Bertie explained, adding, "The hot sauce won the day because it was really catchable."Īside from being used as a weapon, Yelena takes the condiment and puts it on her "really tasty" boxed mac-and-cheese that she cooked. When Kate realizes there's an intruder, she reaches for the closest item - a bottle of hot sauce - and throws it at Yelena, who masterfully catches it and gives a cheerful "Hi!" "The new layer that we brought to was that it became such a focus of that scene and there was a lot of improv and it kind of really, really makes that scene." "So, of course, that had to be in there," Bert added. The director said that sometimes they find themselves "playing catch up" on all the tiniest details, but superfans always make the connections because "they live with these characters." "A lot of the time our jobs are made easy because we have incredible writers on these shows and that's something that was in there, that they would sit down and have this conversation," Bert told Insider in an interview on Thursday. The directors said that this Easter egg was part of the scene from the onset, thanks to the writers. " Hawkeye" directors Amber Templemore-Finlayson and Katie Ellwood - better known collectively as Bert and Bertie - unpacked Kate Bishop and Yelena Belova's mac-and-cheese dinner scene from the latest episode and revealed how the stars improvised while filming.Įagle-eyed fans who tuned into Wednesday's episode probably noticed that Yelena's meal choice was a callback to her younger self telling her mom she wanted mac-and-cheese for dinner in "Black Widow." The directors said that Florence Pugh loves hot sauce and came up with the idea to put it on the pasta.
