New Prime Video movie Hedda made me ask myself some difficult questions, but none as tricky as what I asked its cast

If you've already been lucky enough to read my Hedda review after seeing the new Prime Video movie (which released in select theaters on October 24 ahead of its streaming release on October 29), you might know what I mean when I say it's terribly fun, but terribly serious.

An adaptation of the famed Henrik Ibsen play Hedda Gabler for the modern age, Hedda sees Tessa Thompson star as our leading lady, embroiled in both a plot to get her husband George (Tom Bateman) the work promotion he wants, and a love triangle with George's rival Eileen (Nina Hoss) and her new lover Thea (Imogen Poots).
