“This was special to me because this was the most present that I’ve ever been in a project,”\u00a0Ali shared. “And so, the responsibility of that and having to keep up with [co-star Viggo Mortensen<\/a><\/strong>] and not let the film down in any capacity, not let down Dr. Shirley<\/strong>, try to dig and find the deeper truths all the time.”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

“So, it was special because, one, the story was important to me, the character’s important to me and I was working every day, all day, and that was new,” Ali told Kennedy. “But, I love being an actor, I love getting to wrestle with these characters’ intentions. I feel like, life is complicated, and we have the opportunity to play complicated people and shed some light on people’s journeys and experiences. And so, it’s just all special to me, and I’m honored to be here.”<\/p>\n
