‘It was such a thrill to collaborate with Margaret Qualley, legendary cinematographer Matty Libatique , and the rest of our extraordinary crew to tell this story about what it means to be human,’ said Wilde in a press release.
After honing her skills directing music videos, Wilde seems to really be stepping into her own behind the camera.
‘I think that comes from understanding your “why”‘ she told People. ‘I recently got to interview Nancy Pelosi. One of the best things she said was, “When you know your ‘why,’ you’re capable of anything.”
‘Now I feel that I’ve really hit a certain pace, a certain rhythm, where I understand my process,’ the actress said of working as a director. ‘I’m still learning so much every day. It feels like a pivot, but one that is healthy and allows you to appreciate every experience you’ve had.’
‘It sort of sounds obvious but when you plug into that it’s really motivating. I find that now with directing, I really understand what I do that other people don’t do. You find your why, your specific skill.’
