![]() I was so nervous, but somehow I could concentrate in that very moment, and Lana directed me and we tried some stuff. I was in the middle of another project, and it was so exciting just to talk to them. It was beyond my imagination that, one day, I would work with these guys. I was a big fan of The Matrix and I wanted to work with these people. ![]() RIEMELT: For me, it was all about the name. And once we were actually signed on and give more details about the project, it just seemed like a dream come true. The travel was something that attracted me. The concept of it was really amazing, with eight people from around the world, shot in live locations. Also, there was the fact that it’s a Netflix show, and Netflix is known to have very unique and interesting and gritty stuff. And then, the rest of the season was emailed to me, and I was so off the mark with my predictions. ![]() I very confidently told them about what I understood of the show, where it was going to go, what they meant, and what their intentions were, and they very politely nodded along. And then, because I wasn’t able to fly to London for the second round of auditions, they went onto Skype with me to see what I was like, as a person. So, I did the audition based on the understanding that I had of the scenes. Like the audience, I was utterly and completely clueless. Also, they only emailed me three episodes from the season, so I didn’t even know what the entire story was, where it was going, or what sensates are. Even the fact that we were being considered for such a project and that they were looking at relatively newer actors, at least in my case. Of course, the Wachowskis are a very big name. When this project first came your way, what was it that originally appealed to you about it and ultimately intrigued you enough to sign on for the show?ĭESAI: It was a variety of reasons for me. It was nice because you had that creative freedom, going into playing the character again. With this season, she gave us the liberty to use whatever tone we wanted. In the first season, she directed us more and tried different tones, in performing each scene. And then, with this season, Lana gave us more freedom to do what we wanted to do within the scenes. There’s a deeper understanding of what your director and writer, and in this case they’re the same people, expect of you from the character, and there’s a better understanding within you, for what you want to do with the character. That’s why I always like shooting a film, after I shoot the film. TINA DESAI: For me, it was easier to go back into the second season because you’ve played the character through a season, and then when you watch how it actually comes out in the edit, my understanding of the character improves. We traveled to 17 places in the world, and that was fun. It was tough, but also lots of fun, traveling to all of these different places. That represents how committed we had to be, in the second season. When we started the second season, we had to jump off of a platform on a rig, just to show our will to cross a certain line or to overcome our fears. I felt like we tried to reach even higher and they tried to challenge us more, and pushed the boundaries, in every way. Being together, so intensely, for eight months is really challenging. I usually do films, and you do two months and then forget about it. MAX RIEMELT: For me, it was new, in the way that I’d never gone back to a project with a character. Did it feel any different, returning for Season 2 and doing a second season, after having a season to find your footing, or was there a whole new set of challenges for this season? No one had ever tried anything like this before, when this TV series started. The characters that performers portray in movies are sometimes misinterpreted as a representation of their true selves.Collider: This show was a huge undertaking. He thinks that because of his excellent and realistic performances, viewers often mistake him for the character and assume that he is just like that in real life. Max was a gay police officer in the German drama film "Freier Fall" in 2013.įurthermore, Max has never expressed his opinion on this matter and instead interprets it as a compliment. Many of his fans have accepted that he is gay, hiding it from the media. People who have seen that movie and his gay role might believe he is not straight in real life, but they need to understand that actors often play characters who are not in real life. The LGBT love tale was shown in the film. In the 2013 German movie Free Fall, Max plays Kay Engel, a police officer. There are misconceptions that Max Rielmelt is homosexual due to the parts he has played throughout his career.
