Episode notes

Mark Strong, the acclaimed actor who last graced the stage a decade ago, returned to Broadway with a Tony-nominated run in Oedipus—a modern retelling set on election night. The experience reignited his love for live theater, proving how stage discipline sharpens his screen craft. He thrives on the dynamic balance between the raw energy of a live audience and the focused intimacy of film, with upcoming roles in Cry to Heaven and Apple’s Neuromancer on the horizon. Strong also noted a striking difference in audience engagement between London and New York, with Broadway crowds offering more visceral reactions. As the Tony Awards approach in June 2026, he’s already looking ahead to his next challenges.
