Elle Fanning was beyond focused when it came time to play Michelle Carter, the teen who was convicted of involuntary manslaughter for encouraging her boyfriend, Conrad Roy III (played by Colton Rya…
“She was a huge ‘Glee’ fan. I had seen the show, but I watched a lot of it on set. Reading the pilot, in the last scene she’s singing ‘Make You Feel My Love,’ mimicking Lea Michele’s grief. Lea’s grief was real in the show; she’s also mourning her real-life boyfriend,” Fanning tells“I’ve never met her, but I know every mannerism that she does in that scene. I have a legal pad of notes. I wrote down every time she blinked, every time she moved her hand with each word to mimic the emotion.
The balance between fantasy and real life was something that Fanning, who has been acting for more than 20 years, can relate to. “I’m an actor, I live in fantasy! I’m creating characters and living in other worlds, so I could relate in a sense — especially when you’re young, I think you’re always trying on different outfits and masks and figuring out who you are. That was very relatable,” she explains. “I think the toughest part of this project was to balance the fiction and reality. That’s a theme throughout our show — balancing fantasy and reality.
Co-creators Liz Hannah and Patrick Macmanus knew from the start that they wanted “Glee” to be a part of the show and were thrilled to get the rights to show footage through their partnerships at Hulu and Disney. They also were blown away by Fanning’s commitment. “Elle studied that video non-stop. She’d come on set and then go home and watch it for three hours,” Hannah says. “It was super important for Elle that she was physically correct in how she was mimicking her. So it was definitely daunting for Elle and for the challenge that we gave her and the bar she cleared, which she tends to do.”optional screen reader
