Willa Fitzgerald Interview: Strange Darling, Scream TV Show Cancellation & More

I walked away from Fantastic Fest 2023 calling Strange Darling my favorite film of the festival. Had it received a 2023 release date, it would have been one of my top films of the year. Now it’s August 2024 and nothing has changed. I’d be utterly shocked if Strange Darling didn’t land in my Top 10 of 2024, and I’d also be shocked if I didn’t close out the year calling Willa Fitzgerald’s work in the film one of my favorite performances of, not just 2024, but of recent years. Fitzgerald and Kyle Gallner headline the movie as The Lady and The Demon. It’s a story loaded with brilliantly crafted twists and turns from writer-director JT Mollner and the team, so we’ll keep the plot synopsis simple; the two have a one-night-stand and it kicks off a murder spree. I’ve been itching to get Fitzgerald on Collider Ladies Night since Strange Darling’s world premiere screening in September 2023, and now the time has finally come. With Strange Darling now playing in theaters, she joined me for a Ladies Night chat which, yes, included some Scream TV Series talk, but also heavily focused on her exquisite work in Strange Darling. 00:00 Dicey Questions 16:01 Introduction 16:38 Titanic 18:13 Studying at Yale 23:51 Scream 33:33 The Fall of the House of Usher 38:18 Strange Darling 46:36 Stranger Darling SPOILERS 01:01:39 What Is Willa Proud Of? #actor #acting #interview #scream #movie BREAKING NEWS, REVIEWS & MORE: https://collider.com SUBSCRIBE:    / collider   FOLLOW US ON SOCIAL   / collider     / collider     / collider
