How did you prepare to play the character Jurek Walter ?
"I said to Tim at the beginning and I've said this many times, but it was that kind of wanting to find a stillness, and I thought the paradoxical element of him meditating in that space as a visual would be like, 'woah, that's a bit disconcerting,' but also for him personally. You know, because he's gonna be here for a long time, and he knows that he needs to practice patience. And in order to practice the art of patience for him, he needs to meditate."
"So, he knows that his overall objective is to escape. He needs to get out of this box in order to carry on doing what he's doing. But the only way he can do that is by waiting patiently to find the right thing. So was that kind of element of stillness that we wanted to bring into the character."
