Interview: Emma Stone and Yorgos Lanthimos (Poor Things) and Emily Blunt (Oppenheimer)

The collaborators behind Poor Things talk to Rebecca Ford about the origins of their wild new project, and what it took to create a character as unique and uninhibited as Stone's Bella Baxter. Then Katey Rich talks to Emily Blunt about picking back up with promotion on Oppenheimer now that the actors strike is finished, and how she's learned to manage her expectations around the movies she makes — even one that winds up as massive as this one.
