Episode notes

In Tuner, Leo Woodall transforms from piano virtuoso to safecracker after a debilitating hearing condition, while Havana Rose Liu’s character becomes his unlikely muse. Both actors trained intensively—Woodall from near-zero, Liu refining her skills in just two months—to deliver authentic, emotionally charged performances. With music producer Marius de Vries guiding every note, they immersed themselves in conservatory life, even enduring physical strain to nail every chord. Their dedication earned praise for realism, and for both, the journey became deeply personal—Woodall now composes film scores, Liu found healing through the piano’s keys.
