Nordrum compares experience to football team

The actor describes the production atmosphere as similar to being dropped into the national English football team where everyone passes him the ball without being weird. He notes that the film features an all-star ensemble of British actors including Daisy Edgar-Jones and George MacKay. This project marks his first-ever work in an English-language film.

Filming took place in United Kingdom

The windswept adaptation was shot entirely in the U.K. while the story is based on Jane Austen's beloved novel. Nordrum admits he feels a little daunted by the scale of the production and the talented cast around him.

Director Joachim Trier receives praise

Nordrum states that director Joachim Trier deserves his current position completely after winning an Oscar five years ago. The actor says he learned a lot from Trier who is described as playful yet smart. Nordrum feels it was the first time someone valued what he did in his career.
