“They told me, us maybe, that we didn’t have to play the games, but we could if we wanted to. I did want to play them because I really wanted to get everything I could out of this moment. I wanted to obviously do justice to the source material. But I also knew my character was original.

I mean, I got to hop on Twitch and YouTube just to watch the players who had hours invested into it but also to see the world and to see what certain environments would look like. Of course, with this amazing design team of our sets, Howard Cummings and his crew, it’s just every day was amazing for us. It was all so detailed and vast. I mean, what a rich experience for an actor to get a true to that game playground to explore

Under the Bridge, then you know she gives a harrowing performance as Cam Bentland, a no-frills cop in Victoria, British Columbia, with an emotionally charged past. As a law enforcement officer who takes it upon herself to investigate the death of 14-year-old Reena Virk, it's a mentally draining role that requires a certain kind of headspace—one that I imagine any psychologist would urge their client not to wade in for extended periods of time.For better or worse then, Gladstone got a crash course in compartmentalizing her Under the Bridge filming experience when she for the world premiere of Martin Scorsese's Killers of the Flower Moon at the 76th annual Cannes Film Festival last May.
