[Warren Beatty] is voraciously detail-oriented.

I really want to be a part of those movies that say something good to a lot of people.
Alden Ehrenreich
Image
When you work for the Coens, they are so fun and so organized. They treat everyone with such respect. And the character I got to play was so fun.

Each film and each character is a completely new set of challenges. It doesn't feel like you can rest on something you may have done well in the past.
Alden Ehrenreich
Image
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.
Alden Ehrenreich
Image
I've had that experience many, many, times - when you don't get roles. I'd developed a good muscle for shaking it off.

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

I talked to Woody Allen for half an hour or something. It was pretty incredible. He really went into lots of detail about the story [in Blue Jasmin] and what actually happened. Just talking to him is very surreal.
Alden Ehrenreich
Image
Woody Allen is kind of the one example I don't have. Because the way he works and the amount of shooting time that I did on that film, I didn't really get to know him, so he kind of stays as Woody Allen to me.
Alden Ehrenreich
Image
I had one line. My two larger scenes had gone fine, and then on that day I screwed up that line over and over and over again. And every time I screwed it up, they can't use the whole thing because they're only using the one shot [in Blue Jasmin]. That was my last day.

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