Miranda Otto on cults, soft drinks and working with family
The actor is chilling to watch in her role as a cult leader in The Clearing, the antithesis of the warm, friendly woman in real life.
Miranda Otto reckons she’s met “at least six” babies named for her Lord of the Rings character, Eowyn (pronounced Aye-oh-wen).
“That character meant a lot to a lot of people,” she says. “It’s much more than me, of course. It’s Tolkien, it’s that whole world, it’s Peter Jackson and the films. I’m just a small part of that, but I am the face they attach meaning to.” The films, she says are “a part of film history,” a project she feels “super lucky to have been part of.”
