Elle Fanning & Nicholas Hoult on The Great Season 2, the Slapping Scenes, and Season 3

[Editor’s note: The following contains some spoilers for Season 2 of The Great.]
From creator Tony McNamara, the second season of the Hulu original series The Great sees Catherine (Elle Fanning) succeed in her coup against Peter (Nicholas Hoult), taking the Russian throne for herself. But that’s definitely not the end of the battle, as she finds herself up against her court, her team and even her own mother (Gillian Anderson), and she must decide whether she might actually love the husband turned prisoner who is also the father of her child.
During this interview with Collider, which you can both watch and read, co-stars Fanning and Hoult talked about why making The Great is such a harmonious experience, whether they miss playing their characters between seasons, all of the slapping going on, having all of the Peter lookalikes on set, looking at acting similarly to a sport, and how curious they are about where a possible Season 3 could go next.

I have seen multiple interviews of them sitting in the exact same spot and Nick looks super tired😆, but Elle still seems so vibrant. She's a different breed because ik I'd feel and look dead after so many interviews

[@jordymaas565]

That's because he's had a gutful since episode 6 season one & she's raking in the dough as executive director. get the picture....

[@kekelottas]

@@jordymaas565 I wasn't judging anyone, calm down😒

[@Dr.Chakrabarti]

Theyve done atleast 2 or 3 interviews in the same outfits so they must be tired after doing so many interviews in the same day. And also these questions are kinda generic and boring, there isnt much they havent said already. There is so much detail in the show that a smart interviewer would ask about that hasnt already been asked before. 🤷‍♀️

[@kekelottas]

@@Dr.Chakrabarti yeah I totally agree, again, I'm not judging Nick for being tired. I tried to show I wasn't judging by saying that I'd also be tired, but I also wanted to praise Elle because I seen a lot of comments crapping on her for talking so much

[@Junksaint]

They're both incredible actors already with tons of Hollywood experience, some people just like the interviews more than others. It's not exactly why he became an actor lol

[@lorrainewellbrock1168]

Elle is so amazing. She keeps eye contact with the interviewer like she's talking to the audience. So professional. We Stan a seasoned queen. 💅❤️✨

[@nurhadirahathilah996]

Nicholas is so awkward and cute and introverted at the same time. Love him as Peter!

[@delia1985]

Totally deserves to win an Emmy I hope they campaign this hard.

[@brxsncz]

the great was such a masterpiece. i know that's a lot to say but it was very-well written and all of the characters are everything. if this doesn't get tons of nomination, i'll be devastated and the fans as well. but wait, imagine nicholas hoult as the next james bond and elle fanning as his bond girl then i will never recover from it when it happened.

[@Merjan2003]

He would be an incredible Bond, Idk why I've never thought of this before!

[@jeanfrancoisdutremble9022]

that show is awesome it beat all netflix crap

[@darlamae9876]

Nicholas is sooooo handsome

[@ekekwejennifer1851]

Great show really. Love em both!

[@kikiu1062]

I think Nick is really tired lol

[@Merry-ov7oo]

I couldn’t help wondering if Nicholas Hoult and Elle Fanning were supposed to appear to be in bed together for this interview, in character (so to speak). Anyway, it was lovely to see them, and to see them so easy with one another. What a charming show this has been. A perfect tale to help take us through a bit of this insane phase of our world.

[@leeannnegro5740]

Nicholas sitting position. He's awkward there hahhaha but I love them both. They're beautiful.

[@dr.strangelove.miguelaleja2825]

A WAW AWESOME.,

[@user-qf6si9vz7p]

Мы забыли, вы там говорили, где она там не было нигдемин сестрой к ясно это, а то она это рассказали. Где это всё ничего в этом эпизодах не было, а где вы это взяли, не знаю я в восторге от того, что это самое классное получилось 2 сезон, который надо запомнится о нашей памяти? И я хотел бы сказать, что там была любовь у них, и там всё-таки был настоящий роман, и здесь вообще здесь ни причём была, не знаю, кто из них куда, как. Как там, где появился и в каком эпизоде, я не знаю, но не во 2 сезоне. Она на 1 плане, где вообще там Кэтрин, она главная была и была на великой княгини Екатерины 2, ну где там вообще не было.

[@angelachanelhuang1651]

What do you mean the Hoult name went to Prince Harry?

[@starshiptrooper2354]

First

[@tashamiel]

Elle should just let Nicholas do the talking. she's always, like, babbling in every interview 🙄

[@amisha25211]

Ummm that's coz he isn't so interested in speaking coz he's very tired and bored of doing these interviews throughout the whole day and naturally introverted

[@tashamiel]

@@amisha25211 yeah probably.

[@Sunlit_Reading]

She’s the lead and a producer on the show…this is her time in the sun and should be celebrated.
