Harry drives me mad sometimes. It can feel like there’s not enough time for us,” she confessed in an interview with the Daily Mail in 2018. When asked about their secret to a long-lasting marriage, especially with someone who’s lived in …

Published by Daniella Wilson

The world is about to see a lot more of Sandra Hüller. The acclaimed German actress, Oscar-nominated for Anatomy of a Fall, whose long line of European arthouse triumphs includes Jonathan Glazer’s The Zone of Interest (2023), Maren Ade’s Toni Erdmann (2016), and Hans-Christian Schmid’s Requiem (2006), is about to have a very big year, starring alongside Tom Cruise in Alejandro G. Iñárritu’s hotly anticipated dramedy Digger, and together with Ryan Gosling in the sci-fi feature Project Hail Mary from Phil Lord and Christopher Miller. But before you think Hüller has gone Hollywood, she is returning to the terrain that made her reputation. Markus Schleinzer’s stark black-and-white period drama Rose finds Hüller once again pushing herself to extremes.

Hüller plays a scarred, taciturn soldier, a woman who has long lived disguised as a man. She arrives at a small village to claim a long-abandoned farm, …
