ELIZA DUSHKU BULL EPISODES MOVIE
So you have to sort of find the right financiers for a movie that want to tell a story that’s important.ĭEADLINE: Did you think of packing it in by, say Year 10?ĭUSHKU: Honestly, sometimes, sometimes. They’re giving filmmakers the tools to shoot scenes and then they critique them, and we were really lucky to have some Sundance love.ĭEADLINE: So, talking about that rough ride, where was the love harder to find, so to speak?ĭUSHKU: (Laughs) Look, this is a business, and as we all know these art movies - whether it’s Frida or Basquiat - they’re not typically a Marvel movie in terms of the return. They bring incredible mentors, and Redford himself is up there. They do exactly what I was talking about. We had taken the script to the producer/writer/director labs and wanted to do it right.ĭUSHKU: Yeah, it’s a tremendous resource. We worked on the script with the help of the Sundance Institute. We had different other cast involved at different times. We partnered with Ondi Timoner, the director and co-writer, and optioned the material from Mapplethorpe’s foundation, and it was a long, rough ride.ĭEADLINE: How so? I mean, I’d assume one of the hardest parts would be getting the foundation on board.ĭUSHKU: For us, there were a number of challenging factors.
Even people that don’t love the movie, they love Matt Smith in the movie.ĭEADLINE: In that vein, I know Mapplethorpe was not a film that came together quickly, but how did you get involved in your first run as a feature producer?ĭUSHKU: Well, the first time my brother brought me the script from the original writer was 14 years ago. And in another sense, everything was supposed to happen for us to get to Matt Smith playing Robert Mapplethorpe. So I feel like the universe was looking out for me in that. However, I feel like this field that I’m studying now, holistic psychology, is about combining all of these - you know, your mind body and spirit - and it’s exactly what I’ve needed and where I’ve needed to be. The year has been in some ways just extraordinary in a beautiful way and it’s been in some ways extraordinary in a really challenging way. I’ve become good at sort of compartmentalizing even if some people see that as a good thing, some people see that as a bad thing. and expand across the country, and after a year of, well, a hell of a lot, how are you?ĭUSHKU: I am well, thank you. I sat down with the frank Dushku recently to talk about the making of Mapplethorpe, where she’s at now and how the current Boston-based Lesley University student got there this year.ĭEADLINE: So, as Mapplethorpe is about to open in L.A.

The actor also detailed why as a once expected series regular, she suddenly was written out of the Amblin Television-produced series after just a few episodes in its first season after presenting her concerns to the network. Walking a legal line, the op-ed laid out as much as Dushku could what really happened with Weatherly. “I didn’t leak the story, but I was not comfortable with the false narrative that had been propagated, as I wrote about in the Globe piece,” Dushku told me this week. Restrained by a non-disclosure agreement as a part of her settlement, Dushku nonetheless penned an op-ed in her hometown paper the Boston Globe in December 2018 delivering her side of the story. Coming less than a year after Dushku herself spoke out about being sexually assaulted by a stuntman on True Lies when she was 12, the Bull situation originated from The New York Times publishing information from a leaked probe of ex-CBS boss Les Moonves’ behavior and the overall culture at the company.
