We spoke w/ Natasha Lyonne and Benjamin Bratt about 'Poker Face' and the inspiration for their characters.
From creator/writer Rian Johnson, the Peacock mystery-of-the-week series Poker Face follows Charlie Cale , who suddenly finds herself in the position of needing to hit the road in her Plymouth Barracuda. Trying to outrun some very dangerous consequences for her actions leads her to a series of encounters and strange crimes that no one is more perfect to handle, as her ability to always be able to determine when someone is lying never fails her.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY Collider: Natasha, you and Rian Johnson came up with this together and built this role for you. What were the must-haves that you were insistent on this character having? Was there anything with the structure of the show or the setup of this that you were worried wouldn’t work, or did it all just feel like it really worked for this story and this character?
Benjamin, you’ve described your character as the dutiful soldier, which is easy to see as a fitting description of him. What do you think he’s up to, when we don’t see him? Do you think he has any kind of regular life, when we don’t see him murdering people?
