Glass Onion’s Jessica Henwick And Madelyn Cline On Quit Vibes And Wild Turkey [Exclusive Interview]


It is! Madelyn, Whiskey is a very different kind of character, I’d say. She’s big into influencer culture. Did you go to social media at all to do any research?

Cline: Totally. Yeah, I did some research on the YouTube, Instagram.

Henwick: The YouTube?

Cline: The YouTube. I went to –

Henwick: The worldwide web?

Cline: The Instagram. Oh, God. And then also just kind of stealing from people that I’ve seen in real life and just taking pieces that I felt would fit. Whiskey is a little bit of satire, for sure. So, that was really fun to play with.

For both of you, did either of you develop any backstory for your character that wasn’t in the script, just to help you connect with the character?

Henwick: I think you have to, yeah, that’s part of the job.

What are some examples of that?

Henwick: I discussed with Kate [Hudson, who plays Peg’s boss, Birdie] the fact that Peg has quit several times and the next day she goes back into work and they both act like nothing has happened, and they never discuss it.

Got it. What about you, Madelyn?

Cline: Oh God, I feel like I did have a backstory for Whiskey and I have it in a notebook somewhere, but I can’t remember.

Henwick: Drunk, question mark?

Cline: Drunk, question mark? I don’t know.

Henwick: What do you think Whiskey’s favorite brand of whiskey is?

Cline: Wild Turkey 101.

Henwick [to Cline]: What’s your favorite brand of whiskey?

Cline: You know …

Henwick: Wild Turkey 101?

Cline: I’m not an amber fluid kind of girl.

Henwick: Fact.

Cline: That’s not my thing. I’m a wine girl. I know Wild Turkey because one of my best friends drinks it, like strictly that and whatever, the rest is history.
