Chloe Grace Moretz Chats The Peripheral With HUNGER
Chloe Grace Moretz sat down with Hunger for their newest issue. The young actress is featured in the new issue to promote her new series, The Peripheral. Highlights from her interview are below.
On her new series: “The Peripheral was my first foray into television. It’s eight, hour-long episodes all-in — which is like shooting eight movies back to back. It’s a behemoth, to say the least, but it was perfect. It’s filled with so many twists and turns and really exciting action sequences, so it has something for everybody. But for me, at the heart of it, it’s about strong interpersonal relationships. The relationships between the characters are so dense and so beautiful that you want them to win against all odds.”
On the pandemic forcing her to take a break: “For the first time, I didn’t have to think about what I was doing next month or what I was going to do in a week. I know that’s obviously a very privileged thing to say, and I’m very aware of that. But for me it was a time of introspection. I lost my father during the pandemic, not due to Covid-related issues, but there was a big amount of change in a really transformative time period. After that happened I had to go to London to start filming [The Peripheral]. And I think that working again came at the perfect time in a lot of ways.”
