Even More ‘KATE’ Interviews

After sharing some of the most recent ‘Kate’ interviews Mary did with the likes of GQ & Men’s Health, I wanted to add a few more here in case no one has read them. The first one is with The Hollywood Reporter where she talks about the film and hoping she’ll someday get her own Huntress spin-off (or series) & possibly appearing in Jurnee Smollet’s Black Canary film. As always, be sure to click the links provided to read the interviews in full.

On possibly appearing in Jurnee’s HBO Max Black Canary movie:

ā€œIf it came together in the right way, it would be so much fun,ā€ Winstead shares. ā€œI know that Jurnee [Smollett] is doing a Black Canary movie, which Iā€™m so excited for. Sheā€™s amazing and sheā€™s going to kill that, so I canā€™t wait to see where that goes. I donā€™t know if thatā€™s going to involve Huntress or not, but I love that character and I love the version that we were able to create inĀ Birds of Prey.

Which role was quite difficult given your skillset at the time?

I would say Gemini Man was harder for me because that was my first big step up in the action realm. I did a lot with Scott Pilgrim, which was also really hard. But I trained a really long time for that as well, and then had a bit of a break. I did action films, but I didnā€™t have as much stuntwork to do in them until like ten years later. And then I jumped into Gemini Man training, but I didnā€™t have as much time as I wanted to have to really feel like I was nailing it. So I did it, and while I hope I did it well, I was a bit stressed out from wanting to get it right. (Laughs.) And with all the gun work and choreography, and especially being there with Will Smith, I was just a little intimidated. But now, with Birds of Prey and Kate, I feel like a much different person in the action realm than I did with Gemini Man.

On when she plans to return to acting now that she’s a brand new mom to 3 month old son Laurie:

Iā€™m just starting to look at stuff now, but I donā€™t really know when Iā€™ll actually end up back on set. So Iā€™m not rushing. Iā€™m going to just do it when it feels right, but I am just now starting to read things at least. Iā€™m giving five minutes here and there to at least open an email occasionally. (Laughs.) So yeah, Iā€™m excited about what this new version of life will look like when it happens.

She also did another great interview with TatlerAsia and her co-star Miku Martineau. Here is the first question on what drew her to the role of ‘KATE’:

“I was instantly drawn to the idea of Kate when it was first brought to me and I knew that Jojo (Jonathan Eusebio, the stunt coordinator) and his stunt team were going to be involved so that instantly piqued my interest because I worked with them on Birds of Prey and I loved them so much and the idea of getting to continue that relationship is exciting. I was a little hesitant about doing more action because I was a bit tired and also kind of seeking a break, but then I read the script and it was so good, and Kate is such a great character. Itā€™s something that felt more challenging than anything Iā€™d ever done before on so many levels, physically as well as emotionally. Just going as far as the film goes was something that was really exciting for me and I couldnā€™t pass up on the opportunity.”

Mary on her love for Japan:

ā€œI love Japan. We didnā€™t get to spend very much time there and itā€™s probably the ultimate place that Iā€™d like to go back to as soon as I can travel abroad again. Iā€™d like to spend more time in Tokyo but also explore beyond the city. It was just an incredible place to be.

ā€œI ended up going to a little piglet cafĆ©. Where else in the world can you just sit on the ground and have little piglets crawl all over you and cuddle them? (laughs) Itā€™s just the most unusual thing to do there that you canā€™t do or see anywhere else. And the food, the sushi, you just canā€™t stop eating. Itā€™s a beautiful and unique place thatā€™s unlike anywhere else. I only got a tiny taste of Japan and it wasn’t enough.”

Brand New ‘KATE’ Interviews

Now that we’re about two weeks away from the Netflix (and limited theatrical run) debut of Mary Elizabeth Winstead’s upcoming action film KATE, a couple of brand new interviews have been released. In the first interview with Comicbook.com, Mary talks about what drew her to the film and if she’d ever take on the role of Huntress again. You can watch that interview by clicking the link above. (Each video interview is around 4 minutes long).

This is what she had to say:

“I’m down for anything, really,” Winstead shared with ComicBook.com about how she’d like to see the character return. “I think Huntress is such a fun character, I don’t know if there’s any plans in the future to continue that version of Huntress, because there’s a few different versions out there, in the comic books there’s different versions, so I don’t know if that’s what’s in store. But I’m happy I got the chance to do at least one iteration of her and if that iteration continues then I’d love to be a part of it, but we’ll see what happens.”

In the following interview, Mary talked about how much she enjoyed working on such an action heavy film and that she kept her character’s shoes:
