Here we are, a few years ago, in Spielberg’s ‘Empire of the Sun’ and recreating that epic scene last night! 😆😆😆

Christian’s work in ‘Amsterdam’ is phenomenal. The whole cast are brilliant. But he’s funny, like we’ve never seen him before. A truly lovable character. This is such a beautiful, stylish film, which reminds us love and kindness are everything. It’s a rich tapestry of friendship, art and soul and history, yet it’s incredibly timely. Kudos to Disney for making an original film which ponders the dictatorship of America by corporations in a sweet, entertaining package.
Absolutely beautiful and powerful performance from @nyashahatendi123 . Everyone should run to @geffenplayhouse to see this unforgettable play, #MasterHaroldAndTheBoys. Special mention for #JohnKani such a blessing to have seen this work.
Huge thanks to @amaracwest and @musicisunity for making this world a special place. Please check out their work for foster youth and support if you can.
Spent an uplifting week working with the NY staff of the SAG-AFTRA Foundation.
So encouraging to know that during the worst of times the acting community have a home to go to where they can be in a creative, imaginative, productive community.
Bravo to Ciaran, Becca (pictured here), Jen, Lana, Blaire, Gloria, Alexa, Shannon, David, Danny, Anna, Ryleigh, Yolanda, Clay & Starr. If you’re in New York use the Foundation’s Self tape and VoiceOver studios, take a class with a Casting Director, go to a panel about #TheBusiness side of acting or go to a screening and episode of the #Conversations program. It’s all free for #SAGAFTRA members @sagaftrafound
Congratulations to #KateHudson on her Oscar nomination! Kate brings so much joy to #SongSungBlue in her interpretation of Claire Sardina. A performer who makes a life for herself in Milwaukee in the 90’s. If you haven’t seen it don’t delay it’s a fun, surprising, feel good movie. Congratulations Kate ♥️ you can watch our Conversation at https://youtu.be/vu1r_z8Qm_c @sagaftrafound YouTube channel
I spent a joyful afternoon speaking with @gabrieldomingues.jpa who came to @sagaftrafound to teach a #Masterclass. He reminded us to have fun in our work and follow our passion. The world he created in @thesecretagentfilm is so rich, diverse and deep; gathering so many interesting faces and characters to create the world of 1977 Recife, Brazil. I want to follow Marcelo and shimmy my way through that carnival crowd. Bravo Gabriel .

#jessieBuckley’s phenomenal performance in #hamnet movie is carnal, guttural, visceral and unforgettable. It reaches out of the film and moves you in the way you want every film to do so. #chloezhao co-wrote and directed in such a way which defies every actor not to beg to work with her. It was absolutely exhilarating to hear the cast and filmmakers (Chloe, Jessie, Joe Alwyn, Jacobi Jupe, Noah Jupe, Liza Marshall, Max Richter) discuss their process making this beautiful film. Thank you @baftaus and @focusfeatures
