ROOKS: ACTOR SPOTLIGHT ON ELEANOR LANGTHORNE
November 11, 2022
"...On developing her character, she says, “For me it really started with analyzing the script. What are Nissa's relationships with the other characters? How does she view them, and how do they view her? What drives her? What is she afraid of? What is her deepest desire? Things like that. It's interesting playing a character with powers too. It's fun to imagine how that would influence your perspective on things.”
In case it’s not clear, Eleanor really takes her craft seriously. She’s an actress through and through. “For me, it's the love of the art. I have always just loved acting so much. It's so rewarding to use your imagination and really explore a role.”

"What’s a typical day in the studio like for you?
Right now, I actually have it really easy. We’ve been recording all of the vocals in a home studio for a few months now, and it’s been great. Kristy records me singing and I can work at my own pace. We can really take our time, work however long we want and however late we need to in order to get the sound we’re going for. I never have to compromise when it comes to how I sound; if I’m not happy with what I’m turning out, I can keep going until I am. Plus having snacks easily accessible makes it a pretty good gig.
What’s the toughest part of the industry for you?
There’s definitely an expectation that as a part of the industry, you’ll stay active on social media. I think that part has been particularly hard, especially over the last year with the pandemic. It’s difficult when you’re stuck in quarantine and not really doing anything to have the energy to make regular posts. Like, how can you share things that are new and exciting with people if you’re just doing the same thing day after day?"
