The star of 'The Great' on Hulu talks transforming into the empress, working with Nicholas Hoult, and a possible Season 2.
Just as Catherine adjusts to her new role as empress, Fanning also took on the “extremely exciting and nerve-wracking” task of executive producing for the first time. That involved going to meetings, pitching her ideas, and voicing her opinions behind the scenes. “It was new territory for me in every aspect,” Fanning says. But, like her onscreen counterpart, she emerges wiser on the other side—without the pet bears, glass-smashing, and bloodshed along the way.
Yeah, we had a lot of screen tests beforehand to get it right. Obviously, the pilot was done before Hulu picked it up. So in the pilot I'm like,"Oh my wig looks a little bit different!" I can see that. But it's good cause Catherine is coming from a whole new country. Russia has really transformed her and that transformation throughout the episodes is very subtle, but it's also so key. Makeup and hair and costume, they were all very aware of that.
My favorite scenes to do on the show were when Nick and I were going back and forth, like if it was at the breakfast table or like the long scene at the end that we had, and just battling it out. We would challenge each other completely too. I think that we work in a very similar way. And I don't know if that's because we both were child actors or like just being comfortable on a film set in that way. We're so comfortable around each other and, and not embarrassed.
