Regina Hall may only be in One Battle After Another for eight minutes, but she steals every second in a performance that many critics are saying stands out among the film’s large ensemble. Paul Thomas Anderson’s electrifying action-comedy has already won awards from the National Board of Review and The New York Film Critics Circle , and Hall is expected to be side-by-side with the cast during its awards campaign.
On this episode of the Awards Tour Podcast, host Jaqueline Coley sits down with Hall to talk about the first time PTA told her about the role, the Blackness of the film, and the exhaustion of Deandra. Check out the full interview above, and reserve your tickets for the 70mm IMAX re-release on Fandango today.
