Michaela Watkins
Back To One - A podcast by Filmmaker Magazine - Tuesdays
A Groundlings and Saturday Night Live alum who has evolved beyond her improvisational prowess, Michaela Watkins continues to surprise us. “The Unicorn,” “Search Party,” “Transparent” and “Casual” are some of her television highlights. And I loved her in movies like “Afternoon Delight,” “Person to Person,” and the important and inspirational “Brittany Runs A Marathon.” We talk about the vital role she plays in that film, and what, if anything, has changed in regards to meaty roles for woman. Plus she talks about being Jill Soloway’s muse, and the importance of embodying a WHOLE person.
