‘The New World’ Cast Interviews

Visually magnificent, The New World’s trailers have been creating as much of a buzz as the film’s equally gorgeous cast. 15-year-old newcomer Q’Orianka Kilcher is already being touted as the new “It” girl and co-star Colin Farrell’s fresh stint in rehab is overshadowing his work on the film.

In fact, Farrell was unavailable for interviews when the press sat down to talk shop with the prime players of the film at the Four Seasons Hotel in Beverly Hills. Ditto on the media shy writer/director Terrence Malick, leaving remaining stars Christian BaleWes Studi and  Kilcher to hold down the fort and talk up the historical epic. Their new roles? Film promoters!

Christian Bale
“…Everything with Terry [Malick] just seems to kind of slide like sliding into warm water. He doesn’t make big exclamations. It just kind of happens…” [Full Interview]

Q’Orianka Kilcher

And I found out that they were actually looking around on a worldwide search for eight months and I couldn’t believe it. I was like, “Me? No, no, no, no!” [Laughs]. They’re pulling my leg or something…” [Full Interview]

Wes Studi
“…People are either going to love it or not. I’m sure that’s true of any film that’s made, but I think many people can simply say, “It’s not my cup of tea.” It’s absolutely gorgeous…”[Full Interview]
