I made a call to Tony Gilroy, who was the showrunner and writer of Andor.

Fresh Air
Stellan Skarsgård doesn’t believe in bad guys

I was in the middle of doing them.

Stellan Skarsgård doesn’t believe in bad guys

I had done the first episodes and I hadn't done the second season.

And I also owed Denise Villeneuve, who was going to do Dune II.

a phone call and I talked to them and I said I cannot remember anything any lines and they said don't worry we'll fix it and they said take it easy come in and do what you need to and

Fresh Air

I did.

And there's a lot of actors that are actually using this technique, which is an earpiece and a prompter.

Fresh Air

But I found it rather difficult if you wanted to be precise in terms of rhythm.

Fresh Air
Stellan Skarsgård doesn’t believe in bad guys

Yeah, I think.

And of the rhythm of the scene.

Fresh Air
Stellan Skarsgård doesn’t believe in bad guys

And to me, rhythm is very important because you use it as a tool, the way, the rhythm you make in the scene.

Fresh Air
Stellan Skarsgård doesn’t believe in bad guys

And I had to...

Fresh Air
Stellan Skarsgård doesn’t believe in bad guys

I had to have the guy, the prompter, put his lines on top of my fellow actor.

Fresh Air
Stellan Skarsgård doesn’t believe in bad guys

Yeah, that's true.

Fresh Air

He has to speak at the same time or she has to speak at the same time as the other actor for me to be able to put the cue where I want.

Fresh Air
Stellan Skarsgård doesn’t believe in bad guys

So I'm listening to him and I'm listening to the fellow actor and then I react to the fellow actor's line.

Fresh Air
Stellan Skarsgård doesn’t believe in bad guys

I don't react to the prompter, but I take the text from the prompter and say it.

Fresh Air
Stellan Skarsgård doesn’t believe in bad guys

So it's quite complicated in terms of simultaneous work.

Fresh Air
Stellan Skarsgård doesn’t believe in bad guys

It's kind of complicated but it's feasible and we did it.

Fresh Air
Stellan Skarsgård doesn’t believe in bad guys

So I don't think there's any trace of the stroke in my work.
