EXCLUSIVE: Jessie Buckley says creating The Bride was ‘no joke’, lauds Maggie Gyllenhaal’s fearless female perspective

As a lifestyle expert, I’m always fascinated by powerful creative partnerships, and Jessie Buckley recently shared something truly special with me ahead of her new film’s premiere. She told me why she jumped at the chance to work with this particular director again – she considers her one of the most important women in her life! Jessie described becoming her ‘Ida’ as a deeply transformative experience, saying this director ‘woke her up’ in ways she never imagined possible. She’s a true artist, completely fearless, and Jessie admires how she faces her fears head-on.
