Otiia kua ia kahore tirohanga i runga i ngaru-ranei te ora-i te katoa. Ko te mea i mau mai i na nui te hari ia he inaianei te tahi mea e ia ki te uru i roto i. fifi ia ki te korekore tino taimaha. whakaaro ahau i te matawaenga matua mō te Jim ko, i roto i taua huru, tenei mea i aroha ia ia e kore e noa rite a muri ake no te kahore he whai kiko ana. Ko yeah, i matou nga Malloys i runga i te wai. i matou he rota o to tatou iho ngaru, i he whakaongaonga. Otiia i aua tānga ano tatou i roto i te hau Santa Anita, na i reira ko he rawa, pupuhi tiketike rawa. Ko reira dicey! [katakata]

He aha i rite reira ki te tākaro tama Jennifer Garner a? He aha ngā kitenga i koe hanga e pā ana ki a ia?

Jen Ko te pro teitei. Ko ia tētahi e whakaatu ake ki te mahi rite ki te haere. Ko ia he taua marama kanapa. ko he taua tūranga rerekē ki te tākaro hoki ia tenei. whakaaro ahau te iwi e whakamahia ki te kitenga Jen rite te herehia, wahine ataahua, me te Nireaha i runga i mata, a ko te tino tenei e kore e tūnga. kore ko ia wehi ki te haere ki reira.

Ia tino mahara ana e pā ana ki tona fakaengāue. whakaaro ahau e taea e te tangata faatura e.

[katakata] It is a true story, yeah.

That’s tremendous!

I was a lot younger then, whakaaro ahau. This comes back to Jim in the film. I mean, I had just reached a point in my life where you have to stop worrying about what other people think and what you think what other people think, this idea of success and what success is, and what being an upstanding citizen means. Ko ahau noa he tangata ati, i mahi ahau i roto i te pūtea. i kino ahau toku ora. i kino ahau te wahi i haere ahau. I hated every part of it and knew that I had to do something radical—and nohopuku. I titiro ahau ki raro, i te oraraa o te iwi, me te whakaaro, "Wow. E kore te mea tenei te mea e hiahia ana ahau toku ora ki te kia. But I’m here and I’m doing it and I’m trying to fit in.” I had seen Elizabeth, te kotahi tuatahi ki haa- Blanchett, a reira tino meinga e hiahia ana ahau ki te meinga te kaiwhakaari. Then when I had gone to see Ko te Age Golden, it was this strange sign that I was still unraveling because that came 10 years later. It harkened back to everything that I had thought, dreamed, wished, and hoped for when I was younger. It was a real moment of awakening. Not to get cosmic or whatnot about it, but checking in with yourself and how you feel about your life and where it’s going, I thought, “I really hate myself at the moment.” Acting was what I always wanted to do. If you’re gonna do it, you’ve got one chance to go off and do it right now. And I did. I walked out at lunch and I just never went back.

You got your start in theater. You got a lot of acclaim for War Horse. Then you were the recipient of the Heath Ledger Scholarship in 2014. Do you feel like that gave you a big boost?

yeah, absolutely! It was one of the main reasons that I was able to come out to Los Angeles. It’s very difficult as a foreigner to come into this country—not to get too anti-Trump about it at the moment, although I absolutely am anti-Trump—particularly as an actor. You have to tick off so many boxes. You have to have a certain amount of acclaim. You have to be at the top of your field, etcetera, etcetera. Winning that scholarship propelled me into a field, which made it possible for me to work here. Without that, the opportunity might not have come up again for a couple of years. So it really acted as a launching pad for me to get out here to Los Angeles and start meeting people and kick things into gear. It was a great initiative. I’m very thankful for that.

As much as that scholarship is a once in a lifetime thing for you, Me te mea na maitai mo te whānau Ledger, rawa. tapahia mahi o Heath i poto, engari ka taea e ratou faaamu i te whakatupuranga hou.

Ko te he taua kaupapa whakaongaonga, me te mohio ahau te tikanga o te reira i te rota ki a Kim [Pukapuka kaute] ko tona hapu.

E noho tonu koutou i roto i te pa ki Kim?

kua ki i te ia, e kua oti ahau ongo'i he e pā ana ki. [katakata] pono ka tae ahau i roto ki a ia. ko Heath taua he kaiwhakaari ranga me te taata. Ko reira he taua mate fakamamahi. Ia tino ko te mori o te tumanako i roto i Ahitereiria i roto i ngā o te ahumahi. e tonu tatou titiro ki runga ki te iwi rite ia, Cate Blanchett and Jeffrey Rush, and what they’re doing. It makes you wonder, “How am I able to get out there and do amazing work and continue [Heath’s] name and carry on his legacy?"

You’re at an important crossroads right now because you’re brand new and the slate is clean. The first steps will dictate everything that follows. How do you feel at this current juncture?

I feel really excited! I’m very passionate about the craft of acting and the kind of impact you can actually have. I love the process of collaboration. When I came out to the States, I was hoping and wishing and waiting to be an actor, but kind of diversified and started writing. I was going to be directing my first feature film when [Ko te Iwi o Palos Verdes] came through for me. Right now, there are things I’m not allowed to talk about. I have a couple of projects coming up, which should put me out of auditioning again for a while. I feel very fortunate. I’m excited about the future.

I don’t want to put you on the spot, but can you talk about American Crime Kōrero?

yeah! I wouldn’t have been able to if it weren’t for the trailer that was just released. On January 17th, I’ll be in Ryan Murphy’s American Crime Kōrero and the Gianni Versace world. I play a fairly significant role in that series. I can’t say who I play or what goes down, but that’s next for me.

Keir and I met at Sundance Lab, i te mea he kaupapa whakaturia ake e te Sundance Institute. te Kua haere te reira i runga i mo te tekau tau tokorua i teie nei. Ko te whai wāhi hoki ki te toi tango tūponotanga, me te hanga ihirangi me te ako i ia atu. It’s run by Robert Redford and I took part in this film called Animals American directed by Bart Leyton. tutaki ahau Keir roto i taua kaupapa, a ka matou hoa. I tika ahau whiwhi piki inoino i te kore o ngā tūranga e i haere mai i roto i, ngā hoki te iwi i roto i toku rōpū tau. Ahau e kore noa tino i hiahia ki te tākaro, ka kore ki te tākaro, te tatau i muri taata te taata throwaway i roto i te kura nui ranei. Ko te tika e kore wahi e hiahia ana ahau ki te haere. So I started writing and wrote Pisces, i whakaputaina e Nancy Grant me Xavier Dolan roto i to ratou tama o Manual kamupene. Ko te kaupapa-tatou pono mīharo koperea runga 35mm kiriata. I whakaturia te reira i runga rite te tohu o te ariā mo te āhuatanga e ka kia e ahau te arata'iraa i roto i te heke mai. Mahi ki Keir ko he wheako nui, me te te e ia he kaiwhakaari mahana. Ko reira pai ki te mahi tahi i roto i taua, no te whakaaro ahau ko matou e rua inoino. Now flash forward a year and he’s doing Atypical on Netflix and I’ve done this film, and there’s American Crime Kōrero. It’s all about the work at the end of the day—good work. That was a great stepping stone, just speaking for myself as a filmmaker. I’m very passionate about it.

I was sort of curious about the Malloy Brothers. They made music videos for artists like Avril Lavigne and The White Stripes at the height of their fame. What are those guys like?

They’re incredible guys. They have such an interesting dynamic as brothers, which was a lot of fun to play with. They each have their own perspective on what’s happening in a scene. They had different opinions, but at the end of the day, they were there to tell an incredible story. They were a lot of fun. We became like one big family. This was my first feature out here in the States. Actually, it was my first feature, full stop. It was an exciting process because we were all learning together.

Just circling back to what we talked about earlier in the conversation, was it really rattling when you moved out to L.A.? Your character in the movie goes through a seismic lifestyle change upon arriving in Palos Verdes. Is that something you can possibly use as an actor?

I had never experienced anything like it. My first time in L.A. was when I actually moved out here because I had never been. I jumped off the plane and it was like, “I’m just gonna have to make this work,” which is something I’d been used to because I moved from country to the city and that city to another city in Australia, I lived in Melbourne for a little while, and Brisbane. I was so used to moving and I really like that process. I enjoy growth and change and pushing outside of my comfort zone. I think it’s something I’ll continue to do in life. I love Los Angeles and I don’t see myself leaving, but there’s a part of me that also wants to know what it’s like to live in New York or São Paulo. I love the idea of living in different places, different cultures. Ko yeah, it was a strange feeling coming to L.A. Seeing the Hollywood sign for the first time was very overwhelming because you grow up with that. You dream about it in Australia and what Hollywood is, and it’s tough! [katakata] I didn’t know anybody here, but it didn’t take me too long to settle in. L.A.’s been very kind to me and I know L.A. can be a difficult city for some. I just made sure that I was in the company of good people—not just in the industry, but in general. I love every second of it. I’m just constantly surprised and excited by everything that’s happening.
