What's the first thing that “Station Eleven's” Mackenzie Davis and Matilda Lawler talked about when they met? Pens.
, is an intimate HBO Max limited series about the apocalypse. In it, a global flu pandemic wipes out nearly everyone, but a troupe of Shakespeare devotees re-creates civilization by performing the Bard’s plays. It’s also the story of Kirsten, a preteen, orphaned actor who grows up performing with the troupe. But Kirsten is such a big role it took two actors to play her: Matilda Lawler, now 13, as the girl, Mackenzie Davis as the adult.
The two of you don’t have many scenes together, yet you’re playing the same character. When you met off-camera for the first time, what did you discuss?I love felt tip; I have a brand that I’m very loyal to. Matilda, I believe, loves a roller ball.When we hung out in L.A. a few weeks ago, I was like: “Oh, my God, did Matilda think that was such a little-girl present? That I gave her a bunch of pens at the beginning of the show?”I think pens are cool, and it’s nice to find like-minded people.
“Matilda originated the character, so it was already on film before I stepped in,” Davis says of her young costar. “She had a lot of say in who the character was.”
