Bradley Cooper opens up on his career’s best work withMaestro
Cooper is set to play the role of a conductor in his upcoming filmMaestro. In conversation with a Focus Features awards season roundtable, the actor shared about his character in the film. He plays the character of a legendary conductor and composer, Leonard Bernstein. Cooper is also directing the film.
While talking to Todd Field, actresses Cate Blanchett and Nina Hoss, he opened up about the biographical drama film that delves into the relationship between Leonard Bernstein and his wife Felicia Montealegre.
Blanchett told Cooper in the video,
“I can’t wait to see your film about Bernstein.”
A Star Is Bornactor said,
“Having worked on a project in the same world [as ‘TÁR’], the level of respect that I have for that world and that podium is the most terrifying thing I’ve ever experienced. And it’s so odd because so many people — I don’t know if you’ve come across this — but people that I have in the last five years have said, ‘Well, what is it that conductors even do? Aren’t you up there sort of doing like this?’”
Cooper added,
“And my answer is, ‘It’s the absolute hardest thing you could ever want to do. It is impossible.’”
Cooper said to Field and Blanchett,
“Not only did you make the conducting look easy, but the rehearsal. The rhythm of the rehearsal and the way you wrote and filmed it was just so appetizing on every level as a viewer. It was truly mind-blowing…There’s no one else who could ever play that role [of Lydia Tár].”
Cooper had earlier collaborated with Cate Blanchett in Guillermo del Toro’s filmNightmare Alley.
