I auditioned for four or five years and didn't get anything after that.

You need those people to also have power and authority, and in a way that has been the story of my career.

That was cool, because they've all [ George Clooney and Josh Brolin and Scarlett Johansson] worked with the Coens. They were much more at ease with them at the outset, and they were all kind of familiar with the shorthand that the Coens had.

I'm just excited to be a part of the movie [Star Wars]. It's always the particulars that are the most exciting.

Each time demands its own kind of film.

I had an audition process that went on for a long time, and I got to spend a lot of time with the guys who are directing the film. Getting to be around them and being around the world a little bit has been the main experience so far. I did my audition on the Millennium Falcon for one of my screen tests, which was pretty cool.

One of the big takeaways from that experience [in Blue Jasmin] was just what a thrill it was to act with somebody like Cate Blanchett operating on that caliber. Because what she was doing was very powerful. T

I think that having had [Steven Spielberg's] confidence in me probably made me a little more immune to feeling as bad about myself in the face of rejection. I also was just so young - I was unaware enough to not take it too seriously.

Image
It was pretty fun [auditioning on the Millennium Falcon], because I enjoyed the material a lot. Last year I read for the directors, then came to England and did a test on the Falcon, then came back and did a couple more screen tests in Los Angeles.

I've definitely been spoilt. Every movie I've done, it's always the same criteria: finding a great story, and finding a great part to play.

Like I've known Francis [For Coppola] for so long I think, Oh, Francis. And then you see his name on something with The Godfather, and you go, Oh, yeah. He's also that. The person you knew of before you met the actual person.

You do need these people to go out on a limb for you, thinking you're right for a role rather than having box office numbers.

Image
Let's say [Warren Beatty] wants you to speak louder in a scene. He won't stop playing the role and say to you as a director, Will you speak louder on the next take? He'll say it as Howard Hughes: I can't totally hear you. Why don't you speak up a little bit? To kind of keep this rhythm going.

I've always felt whatever the opposite of disillusioned is. I guess illusioned with movies and with people in movies and things like that. It's all exciting to me.

[The Yellow Birds] is based on a novel written by Kevin Powers, who is an Iraq War vet. I play a soldier who promises my friend's mother I'm going to keep him alive. But when we go overseas to Iraq, he gets killed. It's about what happened to him, my reckoning and dealing with that as I return home from the war.

[Warren Beatty] will sometimes spend hours on a very small detail to make sure he gets it right. After the kind of work that he's made, he certainly doesn't have to be doing that.
Alden Ehrenreich

Even when Warren [Beatty] cast me, it had been two years between films at that point.

I'm glad to be an actor to be employed by people who are now 12, probably. I look forward to that.

When I worked with anybody like Woody Allen, there's the name, and your understanding of who they are before you meet them, that stays in your head a little bit.

An era that I specifically like is sort of late 50's, early 60's. I guess mid 50's too. I like these types of films that deal with post WWII America and this more complex leading man that kind of emerges from that.
