- In the thrilling western HOSTILES, actress Q'orianka Kilcher was reunited with Christian Bale and Wes Studi for the acclaimed film which was shot in remote New Mexico locations. Born to a Peruvian indigenous father and Alaskan born mother in Germany, Q’orianka was raised in Hawaii and, at the age of 14, was cast as Pocahontas in THE NEW WORLD. Her co-stars were Colin Farrell as Captain Smith, Christian Bale, Christopher Plummer, and Wes Studi. For her portrayal, Q’orianka was awarded the Best Breakthrough Performance of 2006 by the National Board of Review.
Q’orianka says that she always wanted to make a western and lobbied for the part, only to discover that director Scott Cooper had her in mind for the role of Elk Woman. How did she fare in the faraway locations, riding horses in ever changing weather and becoming ill miles from civilization? Find out in this conversation with producer/host Rob Word in this newly edited interview from January 16, 2018.
HOSTILES has been called “the best western since UNFORGIVEN.” It’s easy to see why as the film, written and directed by Cooper (CRAZY HEART), delivers in every area. Besides the exceptional cast, which also includes Rosamund Pike, Adam Beach, Jesse Plemons, Timothee Chalamet, Ben Foster and Stephen Lang, the locations are breathtaking and the situations ring with fierce gut-wrenching authenticity. It’s an unsettling modern classic that stands alongside the great western films.
During the interview, Q’orianka compares working with two honored filmmakers, Terrence Malick and Scott Cooper. Both have the creative freedom to deliver beautiful works of art. She also discusses her philanthropic work.
