Have you ever wondered what it would be like to have a real conversation with Max Caulfield?
I’ve always thought Max was a wonderful fictitious entity, until I sat down with Hannah Telle.
Hannah Telle: “It started back at the beginning of 2021.
But then I had to audition…”
GR: So your return was never a guarantee?
So I went in for a three-day audition and then I didn’t hear anything back for several months.
GR: How long did it take before the pressure of reprising this role start creeping in?
HT:“I was so thankful, but I was also nervous.
But I knew I had to do it, there was no way that I wouldn’t do it.
She can’t just go moping around, being sad and distraught because she’s in a professional setting.
Even when she’s around Safi and Moses, they are her colleagues.
She has to be more outgoing and stronger and mature.”
GR: And yet, Max is still hella silly.
I’m glad that this quality of her personality wasn’t weathered away over time.
Honestly, that’s how my mind works too.
Is tapping into that difficult?
HT:“I have a really strong relationship to the lore of Max and Chloe.
So there’s a lot of heavy emotions tied up with that relationship with Chloe.”
GR: What is it about the Life is Strange experience that most closely resonates with you?
Like, if I saythisto this person, how will they react?
And then maybe I should rethink that and say it in a different way.
That cognitive awareness of how what you’re doing is affecting other people.
I found that really enlightening, and I take a stab at employ that in my own life."
So I just want to think more before I speak.
I love that part of Life is Strange."
GR: Are there any moments you particularly loved working on Life is Strange: Double Exposure?
HT:“All of the cat content brought me so much joy.
So that was just so thrilling and fun, and I really felt like I came alive.
That was the highlight of my acting career [laughter].”
