We are honored to welcome Joaquin Phoenix back to the show! His new film Napoleon (directed by Ridley Scott) is in theaters now and sat down with us at the junket in Paris to dive into his preparation and creative decisions that went into playing the historical figure. He shares some wonderful stories of working with Ridley Scott on Gladiator, why he thinks it took so long to get the call to work with Ridley again, and how Napoleon’s hat was like his best friend.
