We spoke w/ Emilia Schüle about 'Marie Antoinette,' those Dior dresses, and her most challenging scene to film.
The upcoming PBS drama series Marie Antoinette follows the titular queen as a young woman, newly arrived in France to marry a young prince she barely knows. The intensity of the court of Versailles initially proves overwhelming for the newly-arrived Marie. There is the strict social hierarchy, the conniving members of the French court, and of course, the pressures to produce an heir with a husband who won't even make eye contact with her. Enough pressure to make anyone crack.
EMILIA SCHÜLE: I mean, it was definitely daunting and a lot of pressure. I remember I was happy to have the part for two days, and then I just realized that I have so much work to do, and it's a really big job and a lot of weight on my shoulders. But then I just prepared as much as I could. And then I do know that at some point, you just have to let go and have to have fun because you will not have amazing results if you're in your head.
And then I just realized that I have to trust all the work that I've done with my acting coaches, and the scripts and the vision that Deborah Davis has of Marie Antoinette. Then I had to depart from all the knowledge that is out there and just create my own Marie Antoinette.SCHÜLE: Yeah, I added this thing that whenever she feels canceled that she has to– she feels herself if she touches things, like fabric, or an apple.
SCHÜLE: I mean, there was a moment where I was almost killed by a horse. It back-flipped, and luckily the horse didn't fall on me. It fell next to me, and it rolled on me for a tiny second. I was just very, very lucky. Apart from that, there's one scene where she's underwater, it's this nightmare, and I realized that I'm not feeling too comfortable underwater, especially having a wig and a big gown. It kind of really discomforted me.
You mentioned earlier this kind of outburst that she has during couple therapy, and that kind of made me think throughout that her struggles are so rooted in the excess of Versailles, but there's such a relatability to them that feels very contemporary. I wondered if you could speak a little more to bridging that gap?To this day, yeah.
