Magnetic. Incandescent. Transfixing. There are many adjectives that describe Cate Blanchett, cover star of VF’s new Awards Insider special issue—just ask Alejandro G. Iñárritu, who directed her in 2006’s Babel. “She’s like these Renaissance portraits, where the light comes from inside,” he tells VF’s David Canfield. David somehow managed to look directly at the best-actress nominee for this illuminating profile, in which Blanchett unpacks Tár and muses about the new politics of casting. If Carol were made now, “me not being gay—would I be given public permission to play that role? … I don’t know the answer to that.”
Elsewhere in HWD, Rebecca Ford previews Ali Wong and Steven Yeun’s new series, Beef; Josh Wigler breaks down an especially brutal episode of The Last of Us; Chris Murphy analyzes Ben Affleck’s day as a Dunkin’ drive-thru cashier; and Savannah Walsh notes the big theme running through Sunday’s Super Bowl movie trailers.
