MAY DECEMBER Interview w/ Natalie Portman, Julianne Moore, Charles Melton & Director Todd Haynes

“Twenty years after their notorious tabloid romance gripped the nation, a married couple buckles under pressure when an actress arrives to do research for a film about their past.”

“May December” is a thought-provoking movie, Todd Haynes brilliantly directs this polarizing story that’s told through subtle, yet powerful performances and a witty screenplay by Samy Burch. The more I think about it, the more I love this film. It was a huge honor to sit down with Natalie Portman, Julianne Moore, Charles Melton, and Todd Haynes to discuss the movie.

“May December” streams on Netflix December 1, 2023.
