Jon Voight

Back To One - A podcast by Filmmaker Magazine - Tuesdays

Categories:

With incredible performances in films like “Midnight Cowboy,” “Coming Home,” “Deliverance,” and “Runaway Train,” Jon Voight has earned himself a spot in the acting Pantheon. At 84, he has never stopped working. Seven seasons of “Ray Donovan” being a recent highlight. On this episode, he talks about how he “starts slow” when developing an approach to a character, letting “things drop into my psyche.” He pinpoints directorial characteristics of John Schlesinger (director of “Midnight Cowboy”) that worked well for him, details a scrappy fight scene with Jonathan Rhys Meyers on his latest film “Mercy,” reminisces about working with Cassavetes on “Love Streams” the play, and much more! “Mercy” is Select Theaters now, On Digital May 19, and On Demand June 2. Back To One is the in-depth, no-nonsense, actors-on-acting podcast from  Filmmaker Magazine. In each episode, host Peter Rinaldi invites one working actor to do a deep dive into their unique process, psychology, and approach to the craft.  Follow Back To One on Instagram
