We chat with GigiAndNate star Marcia Gay Harden (mgh_8) & director Nick Hamm (realnickhamm) about what it was like to work with the monkey who played Gigi, and which themes they hope resonate with the audience:
Nick Hamm directs Marcia Gay Harden in Gigi & Nate, a story about a family overcoming tragedy with the help of a capuchin monkey. When Nate becomes paralyzed due to a tragic accident, his mother Claire seeks out an unconventional service animal - a primate by the name of Gigi. As Nate and Gigi bond, the community begins to question the roles of animals in people's everyday lives, while Nate and the rest of the Gibson family must fight to retain the one thing that is giving them hope.
Nick Hamm: When I was told about it, I didn't want to do it, as Marcy will testify. And I think when she was told about it, she didn't want to do it. Because you never really want to investigate your professional life when you're working with an animal. Because it's really difficult. It just doubles up everything.
Marcia Gay Harden: Yeah, I had to push her out of the way from my clothes. She was very adept and very intelligent, and she quickly grasped what it meant to be an actor in all the perfectly great ways. But also in some of the diva ways - she was demanding her close-ups. I was like, "Will you be in your trailer, Ms. Gigi?"
Were you guys able to work closely with the family to develop the portrayal of Nate and Gigi's story?
