Our guest this week stars in what many throwing fits hosts are already calling the best show of 2026 as the new face of HBO Sunday night, this boardroom baddie stays getting commas and apostrophes, period. She's back at the terminal where her stock positions are just like her height, short. And she may not be a gay man, but she's getting off these trades. If you see this M effort coming, grab the popcorn and invest the best. Because here to talk season four of HBO's industry pecking CEOs and what she refuses to spend money on. My Hollow. My.

[Interviewer 2]

Holla.

[Interviewer 1]

How are you?

[Myha'la Herrold]

Oh, my God, what a joy it is to be here.

[Interviewer 1]

What a reunion.

[Interviewer 2]

I know.

[Myha'la Herrold]

I'm so glad.

[Interviewer 2]

From Zoom to the studio.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Yeah, seriously. That's right. It was Zoom the first time you.

[Interviewer 2]

Were filming in the UK.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Oh, my God. When the heck was that?

[Interviewer 1]

2021. It was before season two.

[Myha'la Herrold]

I was not even born before season two. You know what I mean? Like, I was sentient then.

[Interviewer 2]

Is any part of you surprised that we're, like, on the cusp of season four?

[Myha'la Herrold]

No, no, no. Honestly, I always knew. I always knew, I always knew. I always thought. I always said, the show is amazing and it's a good run forever. That was, like, my hopeful, my creative mind being like, this show is that good. It should run as long as whatever. Yeah. But to be more specific, it does feel like it crept up on us, because I feel like this is the fastest turnaround we've ever had.

[Interviewer 2]

Thank God for the fans.

[Interviewer 1]

Like, yeah, as little time. As little time spent in Cardiff as possible. Or do you love Cardiff? I don't know.

[Myha'la Herrold]

I love Cardiff, where I blink twice.

[Interviewer 2]

If you're being held hostage.

[Interviewer 1]

There is. There is this collective mood among the Day one industry fans that finally people are seeing what we've all been believers in for six years now. Does the cast and crew feel that way as well?

[Myha'la Herrold]

I definitely do. I feel like, again, like, I always thought this show was brilliant. From the first time I read the pilot episode in 2019, I was like, this is one of the best shows ever. So as our audience grows, I'm just feeling, like, so much pride and gratitude for other people feeling the way that I have always felt about this show.

[Interviewer 2]

They're catching up.

[Myha'la Herrold]

They're catching up. And it's never too late, Never too late to come to the party that is industry. Yeah. Yeah. I'm just excited. I'm happy. Come to the Christmas party. Yeah. Oh, my God. You don't have to pull up into one of those.

[Interviewer 1]

What do you mean?

[Myha'la Herrold]

Oh, I thought you're talking about Mickey's Christmas parties, which are insanely famous.

[Interviewer 1]

Oh, the. I meant on the. On the show one through three.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Yeah. We love a Christmas episode on industry.

[Interviewer 2]

I mean, come on, it's the holidays, right?

[Myha'la Herrold]

Yeah.

[Interviewer 1]

There's something about Christmas and British people that just sets them off. They're up, obsessed, extra insane.

[Interviewer 2]

White like the snow, I guess.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Yeah. Seriously. I think it's weird, but immediately you.

[Interviewer 1]

Knew that you guys had captured lightning in a bottle.

[Myha'la Herrold]

I. Well, I don't know if it was like, you. Wow. Can you hear my stomach? I don't know if I thought weed captured lightning in a bottle. I just had so much faith in the scripts. Mickey and Conrad are geniuses, and I, like, I want to hesitate to say it just because they don't need any more smoke blown up their collection. They share one at this point as well. But, like, they are just really good at this show. They write so beautifully. I have yet to find a rival of them.

[Interviewer 1]

Wow.

[Myha'la Herrold]

In my personal opinion, at least on anything I've done, no shade. But, like, I just think they're really great.

[Interviewer 2]

Damn. The source material is there for you to just cook.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Yeah, yeah. And it starts there. Like, for me, it always starts with the script.

[Interviewer 2]

Like, on the page.

[Myha'la Herrold]

It's on the page. Okay. It starts on the page.

[Interviewer 1]

Before we get to.

[Interviewer 2]

Oh, yeah.

[Interviewer 1]

Into blowing smoke up their collective singular asshole we to do.

[Interviewer 2]

Got to do fit check. You came through suited and booted.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Yeah, I did. It's. Is.

[Interviewer 2]

Would you say that this. Is this something that Harper would wear?

[Myha'la Herrold]

I think. Yeah. So I really, like, took. I. I took Harper inspo off this season for the press tour because I was like, when else am I going to wear a suit? Never. Really. I don't really do a suit. I love, like, some girly, stupid sexy.

[Interviewer 2]

Yeah, triple S. Stupid sexy.

[Interviewer 1]

What about your th. Brown?

[Myha'la Herrold]

My thumb. Oh, Thon Brown is good. Thon Brown's really great. That feels so singular to me, Thom. Brown feels like its own universe. It doesn't count as a suit to me somehow. But yeah, no, I went. I went. Harper inspired. With a little extra swag.

[Interviewer 1]

What do we. Where do we pick this up from?

[Myha'la Herrold]

This is from one of my favorite vintage shops of all times called a Brio in Williamsburg run by Julian and his fabulous team.

[Interviewer 1]

Stuff to the kills.

[Interviewer 2]

I know.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Yeah, it's like men's suiting. That's what they do.

[Interviewer 2]

No shortage of tailoring up in that.

[Myha'la Herrold]

No, it's really, really incred. And thankfully, luckily for me, Italian men in the whatever, 60s, 70s, 80s were all really small. So they're malnourished, the pants fit. The suits are just oversized enough.

[Interviewer 2]

What's the brand like? What's the.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Yeah, the brand is. It's just men's fashion. This is some Italian ass. You know, I don't know what it is, but I love it.

[Interviewer 1]

Think of how many Italian women were sexually harassed by a man wearing that suit.

[Host]

A lot.

[Interviewer 1]

Saying a lot of cat calling. That's what that's what made them so skinny.

[Interviewer 2]

They're burning calories. Cat calling women.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Oh, my God. I staged the suit before I wear it.

[Interviewer 1]

Okay, yeah, you're recontextualizing. It is no longer. That's no longer happening.

[Myha'la Herrold]

No more essays. Bladder. No, A bladder. The blad blad. It's literally called the bladder suit.

[Interviewer 2]

Wearing it is not an endorsement of the behavioral wear.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Absolutely not.

[Interviewer 1]

Exhibit my hollow. Got that bladder drip.

[Myha'la Herrold]

I hate you guys so much. Honestly, sometimes I do. Got that bladder drip. And that's growing up.

[Interviewer 2]

Yep.

[Interviewer 1]

That is. That's.

[Myha'la Herrold]

That's mature adulthood.

[Interviewer 1]

What is. What about the shirt?

[Myha'la Herrold]

I don't know. Something else from that. I don't even know what the.

[Interviewer 2]

Full of full.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Oh, yeah. Let's just assume it is. But it's like really nicey kind of silky off white cream moment. You're flowing with a burgundy. Is that red?

[Interviewer 2]

Yeah, maroon.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Maroon polka dot tie that we've tucked into the shirt to sort of emulate an ascot.

[Interviewer 1]

That's called styling, baby.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Okay, Styling. We have the.

[Interviewer 2]

Oh, there she is.

[Myha'la Herrold]

The red satin ysl.

[Interviewer 2]

Oh, yeah.

[Myha'la Herrold]

On the toesies. To match the tie, not touch it. The sling backs. No, these are more current. These are. These actually gag. Are Harper's shoes. These are from the show.

[Interviewer 1]

Wow.

[Interviewer 2]

Did they make their way off set, like surreptitiously?

[Myha'la Herrold]

No, literally. Guys, when we wrapped, Laura, our costume designer and also the producers were like, whatever you want from the wardrobe, let us know and we will send it to you.

[Interviewer 1]

Like, Mickey Khan's already stolen everything for the men's section, so whatever you want, literally.

[Myha'la Herrold]

No, it was actually crazy. And I was like, for free. And they were like, just make a donation to this charity. And I did.

[Interviewer 2]

Oh, wow. That's totally worth it.

[Myha'la Herrold]

I had to pay for the. What's it called when it's overseas?

[Interviewer 1]

The tariffs.

[Interviewer 2]

Oh, yeah, yeah. The duties. The duties.

[Myha'la Herrold]

The duties. Pay those duties.

[Interviewer 1]

Harper's swag. Because of it. And we're going to talk about kind of where she's at in season four. Her swag is like immediately very big and rich. Powerful.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Elevated.

[Interviewer 1]

Yeah. Versus where she was in season one, which was like, she was wearing like, hand me down, you know, vintage, like the wrong.

[Myha'la Herrold]

It was not good.

[Interviewer 1]

It was good.

[Myha'la Herrold]

It was giving Primark is what I was giving. Low key in season two as well.

[Interviewer 2]

Oh, damn. So this is character development that we like to see.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Yeah, this is character development that we like to see. The. What we've called Harper's hero suit, which we do see in the trailer. That gray. It's three pieces is Big Shoulders. Big Shoulders? Yeah. Big Shoulders is a suit that Laura had made for me. She picked the fabric and she did the tail. She designed the entire thing.

[Interviewer 2]

Oh, wow.

[Myha'la Herrold]

It was based off a couple different suits that she loved, but she made it just for me. And she made it so that the. The pieces would all be transferable to other outfits.

[Interviewer 2]

Modular.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Interviewer 1]

That's called budgeting.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Okay.

[Interviewer 2]

Bawling on a budget. Honestly.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Well, listen, I feel like Harper's like, I'll buy a nice watch and one night suit and then I'll figure, you know, I'll figure it out. The rest of it I'll mix and match because I don't think she's too fussy, but she's got money and taste for sure. Yeah. So this is the season in which we really saw her. Her money and her taste as well.

[Interviewer 1]

What about the jewelry?

[Myha'la Herrold]

This is a good question. The jewelry. I'm wearing this watch, which is also vintage.

[Interviewer 1]

Oh, that's nice. That's beautiful.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Isn't it nice? It's cracked, which is really sad. And Klein this and.

[Interviewer 2]

And Klein Calvin.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Calvin's little.

[Interviewer 1]

For the work.

[Interviewer 2]

For the working woman.

[Myha'la Herrold]

For the working.

[Interviewer 2]

That's like a New York working woman brand from like the 90s.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Okay. And I'm really obsessed because also it's giving sort of mixed metals. I don't know if it's intentionally like that or if it's just worn on the side.

[Interviewer 2]

Ask and you know, it doesn't matter.

[Myha'la Herrold]

I love it. And it matches my. My ring. Oh, my wedding ring. My. My engagement.

[Interviewer 2]

Congrats on one year, by the way, my man.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Thank you.

[Interviewer 1]

Have you wearing it for a year. Was that also kind of hidden?

[Myha'la Herrold]

No, this was this. This big thing I was not wearing for the year. I was wearing just this tiny band.

[Interviewer 1]

A big old rock, though, was stayed at home.

[Myha'la Herrold]

The. The big rock was actually kind of recent, which nobody really knows this, but when we got married in January of last year, we just had silver. We had matching silver bands because I was like, I don't really know what I want. I don't really care. I just want to be married.

[Interviewer 2]

Right.

[Myha'la Herrold]

So we had matching silver bands at the wedding. And then I got a little credit to shop at a jewelry place. And I was like, let's go upgrade our share.

[Interviewer 1]

Let's dial how we blame.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Yeah. So both of us. I got this band. I think it's gold and some diamonds. And his is like, what. What happens to the rock before it becomes a diamond?

[Host]

Oh, okay.

[Myha'la Herrold]

So we Are still kind of matchy that way. And then kind of recently he was like. Because his intention was always to get me something big and sparkly and beautiful.

[Interviewer 2]

You deserve it.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Thank you. But we just hadn't found the right thing.

[Interviewer 1]

And the residuals had to come in.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Yeah, that. That $11.03 had to come in. And when it finally did, yeah, we found this one. And it was the first ring that I put on my finger that I felt a. Like an emotional. And also in true. My hall of fashion. It was at a vintage market.

[Interviewer 1]

There you go.

[Myha'la Herrold]

So deal hunting. Yeah. So, yeah. So this is kind of recent.

[Interviewer 2]

Looks great.

[Interviewer 1]

How do you feel wearing it?

[Myha'la Herrold]

Are you actually like a bad ass motherfucker? I love this shit.

[Interviewer 1]

Are you actually scratching people's faces with it and like, no knocking tables, okay.

[Myha'la Herrold]

No, no. I'm really careful. I'm a. I'm a careful baddie, but I cautious. I'm a cautious baddie, but I'm obsessed. I never thought I was going to be like a blingy kind of person, but like, look at that shit.

[Interviewer 2]

Love will do that to you.

[Myha'la Herrold]

I mean, love makes you want diamonds and it does.

[Interviewer 1]

And it's balanced. It's balanced with like the more kind of like, you know, restrained suit and restrained style.

[Interviewer 2]

Got a good rig.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Yeah, absolutely. I'm never taking it off.

[Interviewer 2]

That's. I think that's the rule.

[Myha'la Herrold]

That's the point. I did recently try to take it off to show something to my mom. She was like, don't take that shit off. We were like in the street and I was like, what? Like, don't take it off. Don't be stupid. What if.

[Interviewer 2]

And not in the street.

[Myha'la Herrold]

I know I'm in all places. I don't know about these things.

[Interviewer 2]

Right. You're getting used to.

[Myha'la Herrold]

It's new to me.

[Interviewer 2]

Right.

[Interviewer 1]

Facial piercings. We got the septum, we got the hoop. Do you have. You always had both?

[Myha'la Herrold]

Oh, yeah. We had the same conversation the last. The first time.

[Interviewer 1]

Did we?

[Myha'la Herrold]

We had the exact same. You were like the facial. Pierce the nose, the septum. Do you. Yeah. Okay. Still. Still going strong.

[Interviewer 1]

You're consistent. I'm consistent too.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Yeah, right?

[Interviewer 2]

Yeah. If nothing else.

[Myha'la Herrold]

And my ear jewelry is all this. Oh, this might be new to you guys. I have a conch.

[Interviewer 1]

Okay.

[Myha'la Herrold]

In there. And what is this one called? Cartilage top Cartilage.

[Interviewer 2]

Those are newish.

[Myha'la Herrold]

I do have them on season four of Industry.

[Interviewer 2]

Okay.

[Myha'la Herrold]

But since we last spoke, I think those are new. And then this one, I guess is kind of new. It's a little butterfly in my ear.

[Interviewer 1]

You leave anything in for industry, right?

[Myha'la Herrold]

The septum comes out for industry. Harper's not that cool.

[Interviewer 1]

Harper. I thought she, like, turns her septum up. Or is that in the what? Yeah, maybe I'm.

[Myha'la Herrold]

I did that while I had it pierced with a. Like that U shaped jewelry.

[Interviewer 1]

Yeah, the bull ring.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Yeah. But now I just have the who, and I just take it out when we shoot. But that's interesting that you remember that.

[Interviewer 1]

It's like, oh, I'm too punk and I'm in the corporal boardroom.

[Host]

Yeah.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Let me turn it up.

[Host]

Yeah.

[Myha'la Herrold]

No, I think they thought that the septum was too much.

[Interviewer 2]

Put that thing down, flip it and reverse it exactly.

[Interviewer 1]

Bra, panties to complete.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Panties. Oh, no. Bra. Never a bra.

[Interviewer 2]

Never bra.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Why? What's the.

[Interviewer 2]

Burn them.

[Interviewer 1]

Burn them.

[Myha'la Herrold]

I don't need one. I don't need one. Gravity does not apply to me. And then the panties, I think, are some, like, brown regular degular.

[Interviewer 1]

Not vintage.

[Interviewer 2]

Good.

[Myha'la Herrold]

No, those are new, regular and clean, to be clear.

[Interviewer 1]

Okay. My hollow.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Yes.

[Interviewer 1]

We are so excited for Industry Season 4. What is your elevator pitch on Industry Season 4? For anyone that hasn't gotten into the show just yet, or maybe they're like, okay, I liked it. Like, why should I get, like, you know, dive in.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Ah, okay. Season four of industry, first of all, is a cinematic experience. It is eight hours of movie. It is a broad. The broadening world of finance meets politics meets news media meets power meets power. It's a really sexy show. I think this time around, it's got a sexy sleekness because our characters are a little older, so the things that they get into are a little grown. They get into grown people shit and.

[Interviewer 1]

Into other grown people.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Other grown people. And they're also their shit. And I would say you come for the. If you don't know anything other than there's a lot of sex and it's crazy, and there's finance and there's money come for that. And stay for this time. Stay for the heartfelt relationships. They're in there. If you. If you stay committed and you look hard enough.

[Interviewer 2]

Yeah.

[Myha'la Herrold]

If you squint, they're in there.

[Interviewer 1]

This might be. Someone said that this actually, there's no, like, real love story except the relationship between Harper and Yasmin.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Yeah, I agree. I agree.

[Interviewer 1]

I mean, that. That, I think, is front and center the season, you being back on screen with Ken, which. How. How stoked were you when you realized that you're gonna have significant screen time again with Ken? Who plays Eric Tao?

[Myha'la Herrold]

I mean, I was like, thank God, guys. He is. No, he's literally. Ken is, I think, one of the most underrated actors and human beings of potentially all time.

[Interviewer 2]

Agreed.

[Myha'la Herrold]

His roster is ridiculous. What he is capable of doing. Yeah, come on. He is such a genius of an actor. And what he does in this show particularly is next level shit. Absolutely next level shit. And working with him is so symbiotic. And he was the person I came into the show, sort of. He was kind of like my mentor in the show, but also in life. Like, I sat next to him every day for whatever, eight hours a day on that desk, acting my butt off. But also I was like, hey, man, I'm new to this and I'm insecure and I'm feeling imposter syndrome. He was just like giving me Zen Ken.

[Interviewer 1]

Zen Ken?

[Myha'la Herrold]

Yeah, he was Zen.

[Interviewer 2]

That's a brand right there.

[Interviewer 1]

What did he. What did he actually. Did he say anything with that stuck with you? I mean, in terms of just like getting as somebody kind of new to this Six years ago.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Yeah. Yeah. Literally there was one day where I was like, I don't know, I'm feeling insecure about my choices. I don't know if I'm doing this, whatever. And he was like, this is your world, this is your stage. What you say goes. None of this happens without you. We're all here just to support you. And he was like, so dead ass about that. And I was kind of like, haha, I know you're being nice. And he's like, I'm so serious.

[Interviewer 2]

That's awesome.

[Myha'la Herrold]

I mean, that thing when he's like, you're a world killer. When he said that to me, I was like, oh, my God, thank you. I really needed to hear that.

[Interviewer 2]

Yeah.

[Interviewer 1]

Remember this feeling?

[Myha'la Herrold]

Very much that, like, I know we're playing pretend, but like, all of that sentiment, really, I really get that from him as like a. As. As I was and still sort of am like emerging and entering the business. And him having been a veteran and having done such great stuff, like, it really means the world to me that he's supporting me so much. Also, sometimes you just have like incredible chemistry with someone, like working on screen, off screen. But like, we just have really good chemistry and working together is so inspiring.

[Interviewer 1]

You and, you and Ken. Okay. But also you and Marissa, I mean, you guys have like, the chemistry is fucking untouchable. What parts of your on screen relationship with Yasmin carry over into your real life relationship with Marissa, Bella, or vice versa?

[Myha'la Herrold]

Well, I Mean, Marisa and I have all the things that Harper and Yasmin have that aren't toxic.

[Interviewer 2]

Okay, okay. The positives.

[Myha'la Herrold]

We are completely untoxic friends.

[Interviewer 2]

Thank God.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Yeah. Seriously. But also, like, again, and I think this is just, like, the curiosity of how this all happened to work. Marisa and I left school. Well, she was dragged out of school to do this show. We were, like, fresh into the marketplace with almost no experience at all. And both of us young women in. In this show in particular, doing a lot of pretty intense firsts, and then going on to do other projects, films, sort of broaden ourselves in the industry. And coming back to do season two and season three, like, it's such a unique experience. What happens.

[Interviewer 1]

Yeah.

[Myha'la Herrold]

To you when your life changes from, like, one thing? And we've had really parallel experiences, and it's like, we always say, it's so comforting. And I don't know that anybody. Like, it's rare that this happens, but there's only one other person on the planet who knows exactly my life experience in this particular thing.

[Interviewer 1]

You guys can check it and be like, girl.

[Interviewer 2]

Yeah.

[Myha'la Herrold]

And I don't have to explain myself.

[Interviewer 2]

Right? That's all you have to say?

[Host]

Girl.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Yeah, girl. Like, it's crazy. Also, we got engaged within a week of each other.

[Interviewer 2]

Wow.

[Interviewer 1]

That's right.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Which is really insane. And then without knowing. And then, I mean, like, I got married, and she wasn't married yet, but she knew that I was married. Like, she. I was like, hey, girl, let's do the show. And she's like, you fucking got married. I was like, ah, sorry. But, yeah, I mean, we support each other beyond. Like, nothing makes me more happy than her success. And I'm so fucking jealous of her. She's such a good actor. Like, it inspires me so much. She challenges me in, like, a good, healthy way. I'm like, I want to be that good. I want to be able to do those things that you're doing. We make each other better. And on a creative level, like, it's just really. It's a really important relationship to me. And I love her dearly, I think.

[Interviewer 2]

I mean, it comes through for everyone who loves the show. I mean, that's. Even with Ken, like, we're talking about.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Yeah.

[Interviewer 1]

It's very.

[Interviewer 2]

It's tangible. Right?

[Myha'la Herrold]

Yeah. Well, I think it's also, like. I mean, we will have been doing this show for seven years, like, four seasons over seven years. So much has happened to all of us. Babies have been born. People have been married. Like, your life is Lifing. And also we like each other.

[Interviewer 2]

Like, how rare is that in the business?

[Myha'la Herrold]

Girl? It's kind of rare. It's kind of rare. No, I'm kidding. I've been really blessed to. To really enjoy everyone I've worked with, but it's not a promise. And you're certainly not going to be best friends with everyone you work with. And, like, we're best.

[Interviewer 2]

They're co workers, you know, for the most part.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Right. Yeah, we're. Firstly, we're co workers, but not with me and Marisa and not with me and Ken. Like, firstly, now we have the end with the boys with Mickey and Conrad. Like, we are besties first. Family.

[Interviewer 1]

Family.

[Myha'la Herrold]

We are family. But Mickey and Conrad do sign my check.

[Interviewer 2]

So, yeah, they are the bosses.

[Myha'la Herrold]

They're the bosses. My family, but also my bosses.

[Interviewer 1]

Backing up real quick, where is Harper Cernet as we enter season four? Like in the. In the early days of season four? And how did you. Like, where did you. How did you position yourself to play Harper coming into season four?

[Myha'la Herrold]

Yeah, coming into season four, Harper has just created this relationship with Autumn Austin and we don't know it until we get into it a little bit, but she has her own. She's meant to have her own fund, like, under the branch of Autumn Austin. However, it ends up sort of feeling like a separately managed account.

[Interviewer 2]

This is on. Meant.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Yeah, meant to be. But she's, in her own words, dealing with catastrophic levels of oversight. But she has her. Her whole. Like her account has all these people and she's trading on her own and she's putting forth her own, like her shorts and her lot, whatever. Honestly, I don't know what the fuck they're called.

[Interviewer 2]

I just read the line.

[Myha'la Herrold]

She's doing stuff and she's getting off these.

[Interviewer 1]

Getting off this trade.

[Myha'la Herrold]

She's getting off this trade and she's meant to be the boss of getting off the trade.

[Interviewer 2]

Right.

[Myha'la Herrold]

So she's at a real high point and probably the highest we've ever seen her in terms of her money and her agency and her power and her leverage. But she is having issues with this catastrophic levels of oversight. So she's frustrated that it feels like she's hitting a sort of ceiling that she thinks she's not supposed to hit. So that's where we find her.

[Interviewer 1]

And she's reacting to that and she's pissed.

[Myha'la Herrold]

She's. Yeah, she's pissed off. It's pissing me off. Yeah, she's annoyed. She's pissed and she's annoyed. But she's Also, like, problem solving.

[Interviewer 2]

Right.

[Myha'la Herrold]

And she's like, I'm running this one position on Siren, and I think it's really going to work. But the issue is that Otto Masten's like, whoever manager guy is not trying to let her run this position. But she feels a high conviction for this particular thing, which is extremely risky, that no one else trusts, which is her whole bag.

[Interviewer 1]

It's kind of what happens when you work for a fascist every time.

[Interviewer 2]

Yeah, typically. Typically, in my experience.

[Interviewer 1]

Speaking of which. Speaking of which, we see. We see a lot of Mick and Con directing this season. How are they as directors?

[Myha'la Herrold]

They're the best. I love working with them as directors. They really. They really get in their bag when they're direct.

[Interviewer 1]

Are they like Good Cop, Bad Cop, or are they, again, singular mind, singular butthole.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Yeah, definitely still singular butthole. But I think Mickey. Mickey feels like the sort of frontman of the band, and KH feels like the sort of visceral sort of heartbeat.

[Interviewer 1]

The rhythm.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Yeah, he's the rhythm. He's the rhythm. And Mickey's up there like, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. In the front.

[Interviewer 2]

He's a yapper.

[Myha'la Herrold]

He's. Oh, my God, Mickey, I love you. I'm sorry. Yeah, they're. They're very symbiotic, though. They work as a pair. And I've always appreciated when they direct because it feels like I don't have to ask somebody to ask somebody to ask them if they want to try this thing. They're just right there, and we're like, can we try this thing? And it's so much easier that way, and it's just faster. And also, like, this show is their brain. The show is their heart, their gut. And when they direct, it's exactly as they imagine it and is like. Like the most perfect version of the show.

[Interviewer 2]

Is there more pressure then for you to perform? Because it's like, I want to execute the vision from the. The hive mind.

[Myha'la Herrold]

No, no. I mean, I. That pressure to perform is there constantly. Like, of course. I think I actually feel more ease because I. Now we know each other so well that, like, we have a shorthand, and I know exactly what they're looking for. And when I try something or say something, they're like, oh, cool. And they know exactly what I'm gonna give them.

[Interviewer 2]

Right.

[Myha'la Herrold]

They know how to set the stage or, like, create an environment to get exactly what they're looking for because they know how I work.

[Interviewer 1]

At this point in your time with the show, when you're reading the scripts for Industry for The first time. Do you still think that Mick and Connor some sick or are you used to it now?

[Myha'la Herrold]

Like, when they're like the sickest they've ever been?

[Interviewer 2]

Oh, what are you. Are you shocked? Are you beyond shock at this point? Like, nothing surprises you? Are you like.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Oh, yeah, no, nothing surprises me. I mean, on first read, I'm always like. Like mouth agape, like, oh, my God.

[Interviewer 2]

I gotta do this.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Oh, my God. Yeah. Okay, well, there's one I gotta start.

[Interviewer 1]

Working on my lower back.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Dude. Dude.

[Interviewer 1]

Which one of them. Which one of them do you think came up with your pegging scene in the season premiere?

[Interviewer 2]

Everyone has seen it, hopefully.

[Myha'la Herrold]

I mean, I feel. I don't know. I don't know. I mean, it's always a joint slay from them. I feel like this was. This was like, oh, yes, we have to do this. We love it so much.

[Interviewer 1]

It's a by gag. Were you satisfied with the size of the rig originally or do you want to go bigger?

[Myha'la Herrold]

I didn't see the original size of the thingy because apparently when it came, it was way, way, way too small.

[Interviewer 2]

Oh. Oh, right.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Oh. And they were like, no, it has to be bigger. And then it was like, oh, that's like too big. And then there was a happy medium, which I think is really like a happy large. Yeah, it just was what it was, you guys. It was what it was. I know them now and I looked at them and I was like, like, honestly, kind of you. But also like, in a good way, like, this is insane.

[Interviewer 1]

That's their. What they say is that when they're writing, they trying to just one up each other and like, gross the other person out and.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Yeah.

[Interviewer 1]

Do you. Do you see that process happening, like in real time or. Or as when you see. You see the results of that in the scripts?

[Myha'la Herrold]

Yeah, definitely. I think it's. Yeah, definitely in the scripts. And then when we get on the set, I'm like, guys, we're doing the dildo thing.

[Interviewer 2]

Yeah.

[Myha'la Herrold]

They're like waiting in anticipation to see how I'm gag. They're like, this is so fun.

[Interviewer 1]

One of them is crazy penis envy.

[Host]

That's all.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Oh, my God. I think both of them have crazy penis envy of me in the show.

[Interviewer 2]

Yeah, for sure. Of Harper, without a doubt. That's why it makes sense when you're watching because you're like, oh, yeah, this is. This tracks 1. No matter how crazy it is, you're like, oh, yeah.

[Myha'la Herrold]

No. And it, like, it lives in the world.

[Interviewer 2]

Like, this is the world we live.

[Myha'la Herrold]

In, you know, that's. That's the world of industry.

[Interviewer 1]

It's about power.

[Myha'la Herrold]

It is about power.

[Interviewer 1]

How jealous.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Huge power.

[Interviewer 1]

Huge giant, strapped up power.

[Interviewer 2]

Throbbing power.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Black power.

[Interviewer 1]

How jealous are they of all your Tom Brown and Mew Mew.

[Myha'la Herrold]

How jealous are they? Yeah, I think they would never tell me they were jealous of me and my fitness. It's.

[Interviewer 1]

But you pull up on set and they're like, oh, I got Burberry on again.

[Myha'la Herrold]

No, I. No, they, they. Well, actually, what did I say to them? There was one time I rolled up to set and I was like, God, you always put that on. And they were like, yeah, because now they're taking pictures.

[Interviewer 2]

They give a. Oh, yeah.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Like there's photographers on set now. We have to put that on.

[Interviewer 1]

Were they not putting on before? I feel like they were trying.

[Myha'la Herrold]

At least they were definitely trying. But now it's like a whole level of annoying where they always have that on for real. But it's. It's like I think, think sort of their dream that they would never say is they want to end up on that like fits of director fits page.

[Interviewer 1]

Oh, of course.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Like they want.

[Interviewer 2]

I thought they already gave an interview, but either way. But I get what you're saying, but like that's important.

[Myha'la Herrold]

That's the goal.

[Interviewer 2]

That's the number one priority. That's the only reason why they're directing Emmy.

[Interviewer 1]

That's the only reason why they're directing more episodes this season.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Yeah.

[Interviewer 1]

Like, hey, we're directors.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Yeah. So they have like this very specific style. It feels like they could go on a hike or they could direct an episode of industry.

[Interviewer 1]

Right?

[Myha'la Herrold]

Yeah.

[Interviewer 1]

Tough question. Who dresses better?

[Myha'la Herrold]

Oh, yeah. Yikes. You guys are trying to get me in trouble. For real.

[Host]

Absolutely.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Me.

[Interviewer 2]

Oh, okay. That's a Harper answer.

[Myha'la Herrold]

It's. Yeah, it's. It's not honest.

[Interviewer 1]

Do you dress better than both of them?

[Myha'la Herrold]

No.

[Interviewer 1]

Really?

[Myha'la Herrold]

I don't know. I. I like men's clothes. Like, I just love. Yeah, I love men's clothes and I love men's styling and I think both of them have a great sense of style. Cons is quieter than Mickey's quiet luxury. Yeah. Kind of. The full issay soon is like not that quiet, but.

[Interviewer 1]

Yeah, but. But the row.

[Interviewer 2]

The row.

[Host]

Yeah.

[Myha'la Herrold]

I am so annoyed by the row. Why is it so expensive?

[Interviewer 1]

It's so expensive.

[Myha'la Herrold]

It's like really?

[Interviewer 2]

Cuz the Olsen's got to eat. Or maybe I guess not eat in their case, but you know what I mean?

[Myha'la Herrold]

Whatever. It's just like annoying. Like I Love that striped little T shirt. But I. No matter how much money I make, I can't justify spending 13. Nobody can $100 get sold out every time. It's like, oh my God. And I'm still looking.

[Interviewer 1]

Why don't you ask? Yeah, but it's the people that you are portraying on screen, they're the ones buying the row because they.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Yeah, well, them, they're annoying.

[Interviewer 1]

Why don't you get Laura, the costume designer just put Harper Stear Season 5 in head to toe row.

[Interviewer 2]

Honestly.

[Interviewer 1]

And you get to walk off set with that.

[Myha'la Herrold]

I don't know if they would send. I don't know if they would send it because she like we tried to get some stuff and they were like, no, like here's a discount code.

[Interviewer 1]

So this is. I remember season one. They had a tough time getting close, getting companies to send clothes.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Possible.

[Interviewer 1]

How is it now?

[Myha'la Herrold]

It's still tricky but I think it's because we're definitely like in a recession and I feel like companies are more selective.

[Interviewer 1]

Sure.

[Myha'la Herrold]

In terms of like borrowing whatever. But also I think they're trying to get us to buy this. They want people to buy the stuff. So they're like, we won't let lend it to you, but you can buy it with a discount code which is like we just don't have the budget for that.

[Interviewer 2]

I wonder if Kit has this problem.

[Myha'la Herrold]

What problem? Which problems?

[Interviewer 2]

The problem of getting free gear.

[Myha'la Herrold]

He has problems. That's not fair. I don't know. I don't know. I mean I will say like the partnerships that Laura got this time, like she was working with this one. I don't know, it was vintage or secondhand or something. But this like sourcing something and I had like Chanel this. I mean these YSL shoes were brand new. They sent them to us and I got to keep them. So shout out YSL for being the homies for real.

[Interviewer 1]

Thank you eaint.

[Myha'la Herrold]

We love you.

[Interviewer 2]

Thank you, Anthony.

[Myha'la Herrold]

So I don't know what that partnership was, but there was some tea there.

[Interviewer 1]

I think that in the early days again when you didn't, you only had tasteful precient like ourselves that were evangelizing show brands. I remember Con Micron said this that they didn't want to be have the associations with finance bros. Yeah, like Hermes didn't want to send ties because like we're not a finance bro brand and.

[Interviewer 2]

Finance bro's behaving extra badly.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Yeah, well, I mean, yes. Like we still have the issue of like if there's any drugs being done In a scene or if there's any sex or violence. We have to take our watches off, right?

[Interviewer 1]

Really?

[Myha'la Herrold]

We all have to take our watches off. Yeah.

[Interviewer 2]

Or can't do a bump off a Rolex.

[Myha'la Herrold]

No, no, absolutely not. And it's crazy. Sometimes it's crazy. Like we'll be in the middle of the scene. They're like, give me the watch. And I'm like, I've been wearing it the whole time. They're like, well, you can't wear from now on. No, it doesn't matter because they'll get sued. Insanely sued.

[Interviewer 1]

Crazy.

[Myha'la Herrold]

So it happens with certain. Like a. Certain. Like you can't wear this Bottega bag because you're about in the two scenes later on the same day you're gonna punch someone.

[Interviewer 1]

Like, you can't be bumping in Bottega.

[Myha'la Herrold]

No, it's just the brands don't want to be associated with violence. Drugs, hedonisms.

[Interviewer 1]

That's all the good stuff.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Yeah, I know. They'd rather.

[Interviewer 1]

So he put this on.

[Interviewer 2]

They'd rather disemploy child labor behind the scenes.

[Myha'la Herrold]

It's way better that way.

[Interviewer 1]

Yeah, just keep it hush hush quiet.

[Interviewer 2]

Thank God you don't have.

[Interviewer 1]

Do you have guys, Finance bros coming up to you in their puffer vest, Mini micro puffer vest, being like, yo, love the show, yo.

[Interviewer 2]

That trade was crazy.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Not as much go, Harper. Honestly, not as much. They're like. But I just like.

[Interviewer 2]

Right.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Yeah, they're autistic. I just avoid them like the plague. Like the only real times I've interacted with like finance people has been like, I accidentally ended up at lebane on like, do you know what I mean? And I'm like, oh, it's accidentally. And I'm like, why are all these straits here? They're ruining the vibe. It just, you know, it happened one.

[Interviewer 2]

Time, one of those nights that got away from me.

[Myha'la Herrold]

But it's those environments that I don't like them in. But in their natural habitat on Wall street and go off queen.

[Interviewer 2]

What's a typical, like fan interaction for you?

[Myha'la Herrold]

Like, usually people are like, oh, my God, I love you. I love industry. Harper's my queen. You're so great. Thanks. And then they leave.

[Interviewer 1]

Oh, that's nice.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Awesome. And tame. Or take a picture.

[Interviewer 1]

Is that New York? Is that like New York? Because in New York it's like, we're pretty.

[Myha'la Herrold]

New York is chill.

[Interviewer 1]

But la, are people like, yo, it's. What's collab?

[Myha'la Herrold]

Nobody gives two shits about me in la. Nobody knows who I am in la. No.

[Interviewer 2]

[Myha'la Herrold]

Nobody really bothers me like that. Like, no. I don't really get recognized in a way that is uncomfortable or in the amount. Like, it doesn't happen that often.

[Interviewer 2]

Well, get ready because it's gonna happen.

[Myha'la Herrold]

My friend.

[Interviewer 1]

Gonna say, I mean, you're six. We're six years into you being the face of the best show on hbo. And. And you've obviously been in a bunch of other movies and other projects. What's the most diva ass thing about you? Besides just.

You must be impossible to get dinner with.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Yeah, I make it work, babe.

[Interviewer 2]

Okay.

[Myha'la Herrold]

I make it work.

[Interviewer 2]

Sure.

[Interviewer 1]

Are you better with money? Since filming four seasons of Industry.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Okay. Does that not transfer?

[Interviewer 1]

Yeah.

[Interviewer 2]

Is that a transferable skill?

[Myha'la Herrold]

Okay, no, but. But my dear, my dear business manager, thank God to him. I love you, Josh. Passionately. He. We had a, like, end of year call and he was like, hey, I just wanted to let you giggle. I'm so annoyed.

[Interviewer 2]

I'm waiting for the call.

[Myha'la Herrold]

End of your call. And he was like, like, hey, I just wanted to let you know here's where we're at for end of year, and I wanted to let you know from season one, you have quadrupled your savings.

[Interviewer 1]

Oh, nice.

[Myha'la Herrold]

And I said, how the is it possible I spent so much money, I feel like I'm constantly hemorrhaging money. But I think it's broke mindset. Like when you grow up with not a lot of money and then you get a lot of money, but you feel like you have to hoard it. Even though your expenses increase, like the more money you make, the more money you spend. It's just inevitable facts.

[Interviewer 1]

I mean, matcha ain't cheap.

[Myha'la Herrold]

It's fucking nuts. To be fair, I'm taking the train. I have some friends who are like, you take the train. I'm like, yeah, what do I look like to you? I'm taking the damn train.

[Interviewer 1]

It's faster.

[Myha'la Herrold]

It's way faster.

[Interviewer 2]

Way better.

[Myha'la Herrold]

It's way better. I don't care if that guy's smoking crack near me. I don't care if that person threw up. Like, I'm taking the train.

[Interviewer 2]

Are you.

[Interviewer 1]

Are you a fair evader?

[Myha'la Herrold]

A fair.

[Interviewer 2]

You hop the turnstile?

[Myha'la Herrold]

No, I've only done.

[Interviewer 1]

Well, you could go under pretty easily.

[Interviewer 2]

Yeah, you just walk right.

[Myha'la Herrold]

I could walk right under. I'm so annoyed, but I. I'm like. So I feel like, like I've done it a couple times, but I feel like I'm the kind of person who would like do it and then get caught and I'd be like so annoyed that I would miss my train. Cuz I'm getting like a $100 ticket.

[Interviewer 2]

I'm arrested by the NYPD.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Like, I'll pay for it now. And it's like, no, it's too late. You know what I mean? So it's just like not worth the stress. I can walk under though. And my man can walk over.

[Interviewer 1]

Oh my God, that's right. Yeah, step right over.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Steps right over.

[Interviewer 1]

As an adult, what's the brokest you've ever been? And like, what was like you, your broke ass behavior looking like at that time pathetic.

[Myha'la Herrold]

So the brokest I ever was as an adult. I filmed industry season one and I came back and like I had just. Just decided to move out and be on my own and not have roommates. And I moved to the East Village and two weeks later we locked down for Covid and I locked down until I think maybe September. From March to September, and I ran out of money. Money.

[Interviewer 2]

Damn.

[Interviewer 1]

Sure. Yeah.

[Interviewer 2]

You like, were you like on eviction's doorstep? No pun intended or no, but it.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Was like, girl like, you can you. You gotta figure something out. Right.

[Host]

So.

[Interviewer 1]

Because as an actor, like you had nothing.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Well, there's no others. I was like, I can't get an only fans because I have all these identifying tattoos. Like, it's just not possible for me anymore.

[Interviewer 2]

A sweet pea.

[Interviewer 1]

Little. Little reference to season four.

[Myha'la Herrold]

A little references shout out Sweet pea. Yeah. I. I was running out of money and so I was like, oh, I could get a sublet and. And then maybe I would have to go home. But going home felt really tragic and I didn't want to do that. I wanted to like, stick it out. Yeah. So I asked Ms. Lena Dunham, my fairy God director, if it was okay because she told me I could. Was it okay if I stayed at her house? Oh, for free. She wasn't there and she let me stay in her house for free.

[Interviewer 2]

Hell yeah.

[Myha'la Herrold]

While I got a sublet and so I didn't have to go home.

[Interviewer 2]

Wow. Because going home would have been like accepting defeat in your mind at that point.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Point maybe there was a hint of that that I wasn't addressing because I don't really believe that. I think post covet. I really don't believe that. I think stay at home as long as you can. Stay at home as long as you can.

[Interviewer 2]

Stack.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Don't do it. Like, just don't. It's not worth it. But I think there was a part of me that was like, when things open up again, I want to be here. I don't want to go home and feel complacent or I don't want to go home and put pressure on my mom. You know what I mean?

[Interviewer 1]

It's kind of like a. Like a girls arc almost a girls arc. Staying 100.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Her crib was awesome.

[Interviewer 2]

I have no doubt.

[Myha'la Herrold]

It was so much pink and, you know, really sculptural things everywhere.

[Interviewer 1]

Is there anything you still. Now that we're good, money's looking good.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Yes.

[Interviewer 1]

Is there anything you refuse to spend a lot of money on now still the row clothes. Are you like.

[Myha'la Herrold]

No, no, no. I spend so much money on clothes. That's like my. My pat. My lifeline, my passion, my hobby is spending money on clothes.

[Interviewer 2]

I knew we liked each other for a reason.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Oh, my God. I love shopping, food and clothes and that's it.

[Interviewer 2]

What. What else you are matter?

[Myha'la Herrold]

Why would I not put delicious food in my mouth? That's the one thing I won't skimp on anymore.

[Interviewer 2]

Thank you.

[Myha'la Herrold]

As long as I live, I'm going to buy good food. And this is such a privileged thing to say. And I recognize that. And I also think, like, the. The food crisis in the world is horrible. I also feel like all the seats on a plane should be business class. I don't think it's fair that the coach seats are squishy. It's not fair.

[Interviewer 1]

I think it's social airlines.

[Myha'la Herrold]

I think it's able to list. If I was a president, that would be my first thing.

[Interviewer 2]

Wow.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Every food.

[Interviewer 2]

Business class.

[Myha'la Herrold]

All the food is organic, and everyone gets business class.

[Host]

Okay.

[Myha'la Herrold]

I love that. But I think the. The only thing I won't spend big money on. I do have a hard time buying myself a business class flight because for work, like, contractually, that's just how I get moved around. And I'm really grateful for it because usually it means I'm rested.

[Interviewer 1]

It's the only good thing. One of the best.

[Myha'la Herrold]

One of the best perks of working, but also, so I have a hard time being like, oh, I'm going on vacation. I'm gonna buy a business app. Ask. It's so exciting what you do when.

[Interviewer 2]

You went to Jamaica.

[Myha'la Herrold]

I flew this. I. I flew business class. But also, it was my mom's birthday, and she has a really hard time playing business class, so I bought all her tickets together.

[Interviewer 2]

There you go.

[Interviewer 1]

How is that? Oh, that's. That's for mom.

[Interviewer 2]

Yeah.

[Myha'la Herrold]

It was a gift.

[Interviewer 1]

How was the.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Do you know what's ins. Before you answer, do you know what's insane? I'm allergic to weed.

[Interviewer 2]

What? How is that possible?

[Interviewer 1]

Are you 14? What are you talking about?

[Interviewer 2]

Like, I get so sleepy and hungry and I have crazy thoughts. You're like, that's just me to hide.

[Myha'la Herrold]

No, I get really. Like, I'm a little bit allergic. My mom is also allergic to weed. But, like, I get high for, like, I've tried it my whole life. I'm from California, and I really want to. I want to enjoy it, but the feeling of my face on my face as I start to get high is the scariest thing that's ever happened to me.

[Interviewer 2]

It's an allergy.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Yeah. Yeah. Well, I'm high for three days. Oh, yeah.

[Interviewer 2]

Dude, that. Talk about a way to save.

[Interviewer 1]

Awesome.

[Interviewer 2]

Yeah.

[Myha'la Herrold]

It's so bad.

[Interviewer 2]

Hashtag blessed. How's the food?

[Myha'la Herrold]

So much.

[Host]

How's the food?

[Interviewer 1]

In Jamaica, they really care about their, like, ingredients. Panic and eating healthy and eating right.

[Myha'la Herrold]

The food was fantastic. Yeah. I love. I love shout out goldeneye. Yeah, it was.

[Interviewer 2]

Shout out your mom. That's a good birthday.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Shout out my mom. Shout out goldeneye.

[Interviewer 1]

Shout out you for going to Jamaica in a time of their need.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Yeah, well, it was an interesting thing. We had the trip planned for ages, and I was like, is this the time to go and, like, be a tourist? And I called the resort, but they were like, we're still welcoming guests, and this is one of the best ways you can support us, because tourism is one of their biggest streams of revenue as a country. That's their economy. So it was amazing. They were so gracious, and obviously there was not a lot. There was not as much offerings, like the food and, you know, because.

[Interviewer 2]

Thank you for your service, by the way.

[Interviewer 1]

Well, one of the only countries. One of, if not the only country, where mushrooms are federally legal, bro.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Yes.

[Interviewer 1]

You learned something.

[Myha'la Herrold]

No, no, I'm not. I am not. I learned this while I was there as well.

[Interviewer 1]

Well, take this off first.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Right now, and Klein is so chill.

[Interviewer 1]

But, yeah, they were there.

[Myha'la Herrold]

There's, like, a gray area in the legality of mushroom magic mushrooms in Jamaica, which I found so interesting, but I was like, I can't fly with these on the plane. Right, right.

[Interviewer 1]

No, no, no.

[Interviewer 2]

Not coming back.

[Interviewer 1]

I feel like the. The mushroom dealers in Jamaica were telling me it's completely legal.

[Interviewer 2]

That's what they would say to you.

[Interviewer 1]

That's the joke.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Well, they were sell. It was, like, being sold at places, so I was like, this must be legal.

[Interviewer 1]

It's, like, in the hotel gift shop.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Yeah. Like, it's also. It's like, don't say anything. You know what I mean?

[Interviewer 1]

[Interviewer 2]

Oh, yeah.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Bonding in a, you know, like, in.

[Interviewer 1]

A guided, spiritual, safe environment on her porch or something.

[Interviewer 2]

You guys have any trauma to work out together?

[Myha'la Herrold]

Because, of course, who doesn't have trauma with their parents?

[Interviewer 1]

Do you bring that into the character of Harper?

[Myha'la Herrold]

Huh? That one's kind of hard because my mom and I are tight. And Harper. And Harper and her mother are not. No, but we do Have a moment in the season where. Where she's dealing with parental trauma and issues and it. It's hard not to imagine, like, what if something bad happened in my mom or. You know what I mean? So sometimes I can imagine that. But really for me, it's like when you just imagine that the thing is actually happening to you in real time, that does it for me. I don't. I don't love like equating. I'm not like method or anything. I don't love equating like real life stuff because then I get concerned that I'm going to attach some of that to my actual relationship, which I don't want to do.

[Interviewer 1]

Oh, you don't want to. You want to leave Harper Stearns at the door?

[Interviewer 2]

At the door.

[Myha'la Herrold]

It's not like, sneak. Sneak. He. He is very stylish, and he Loves a suit. But I think I only say like, I take credit for that. And I think he would also say that because. Because when we met he was like, still like just an athlete and he just own sweats. An athleisure guy, but not even like, it's nice. Like, oh, I've just have trash. Yeah, it's bad. I have skinny jeans, these sweats, and like graphic T shirts and that's it.

[Interviewer 1]

Like, bro, it's not 2011, what are you doing?

He really. Okay, this is like so not fair. I'm sorry, love. I'm sorry. He like, is upset. They're good. He looks great in them. I feel bad for saying this. I love you so much, but these fucking corduroy pants. He's like obsessed with, with these corduroy pants and he just thinks they're the. And I'm like, bro, they're not always.

[Interviewer 1]

The cuz they're cords or cuz they're just.

[Myha'la Herrold]

[Interviewer 2]

You're like, I didn't pick these out. They can't be your favorite. What the hell? There you go.

And no matter like what I'm feeling or what he's feeling or how angry I am, eventually I forget what the hell we're fighting about. And so then it's all fine. I'm looking at him like, oh, I Just love you. Like, why are we fighting? It's so stupid. And what a waste of time.

[Interviewer 2]

So you emulate having a podcast?

[Myha'la Herrold]

[Interviewer 1]

[Myha'la Herrold]

Yeah, who cares?

[Interviewer 2]

So the lines of communication are always open out of necessity.

Absolutely. And I think just keep talking is also, like, communication is important, but also being honest.

[Interviewer 2]

Like, yeah, I've heard.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Yeah, honest. Honesty is the best policy. Just being honest, being open and remembering, like, for us too, is remembering that like. Like we always have each other's best interest at heart. Like, we. We love each other like, above all the rest of it. So whatever else is going on is like, oh, but I just remember that, like, you do love me and I do love you and we want the best for each other. So let's like, sort of lock back into that and then we can like, problem solve.

Or, oh, is that person thinking this? Or, oh, did I? And it's like, man, shut up.

[Myha'la Herrold]

But this.

[Interviewer 1]

You got a lot. You got a lot. You got a lot of irons in the fire.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Yeah, yeah. I have some other things that I want to do and make. And if the thing that you want to make is not out there, like, go make. You know, there you go. Make it. Do your darndest to try to get somebody interested in making it. But this film in particular, I'm really passionate about and I'm really proud of conceptually. So, yeah, I'm pitching that around. So my goal for the year is to get that made.

[Interviewer 2]

How long have you been working on this?

[Host]

That.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Honestly, like, I'm not a writer who's like, I'm gonna sit down and write something, but it's not.

[Interviewer 2]

Is it, like, a life's work, like a culmination, or.

[Myha'la Herrold]

This was like a spur of my mom. I was helping my mom move from California to here in New York, and I found this box of letters, and it inspired something. Oh, wow.

[Interviewer 2]

So this sounds fascinating.

[Interviewer 1]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Interviewer 2]

Okay. Fingers crossed. I can't wait to sit my ass down. Can't wait to sit my white ass down in the theater and watch this movie. Watch in maybe 2027 at this.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Yeah, yeah, yeah. That'll be good, too. That's enough time. Yeah, right?

[Host]

Yeah.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Yeah. For sure.

[Interviewer 1]

Mahalo. Would you rather have to give up acting, writing, directing, and work in finance or only eat British food for the rest of your life?

[Myha'la Herrold]

No, Neither. I would take finance, bro. I'm sorry. Really mean, like, British cuisine or just stuff that happens to be made over there?

[Interviewer 1]

British blood pudding.

[Myha'la Herrold]

I can't eat anything. I would just have, like, probably boiled beef, jellied eels.

[Interviewer 1]

Potatoes and jellied eels.

[Myha'la Herrold]

What does that mean?

[Interviewer 1]

And mash.

[Myha'la Herrold]

They. It's like, mashing stuff. I love y', all, but you gotta stop mashing.

[Interviewer 2]

Yeah, they were. They were globally mashing for a while there.

[Interviewer 1]

So you'd work in finance?

[Myha'la Herrold]

Yeah, I guess.

[Interviewer 2]

So do you know enough where you could make money, like. Or can you fake it?

[Myha'la Herrold]

To be fair, I think I could do Yasmin's version of finance. Oh, yeah. Oh, sorry. I think charming enough, I think I could charm the pants off anybody. I also. So I will work my gender to. I will work it right. I know how that happens. I did it today. I did it earlier today. I Had something for me that I want him to do because I think he thought I was cute.

[Interviewer 2]

Wow.

[Interviewer 1]

Talk about your husband.

[Interviewer 2]

Yeah.

[Myha'la Herrold]

No, we were doing interviews on the street, and we were trying to get finance people to talk to us, which is very hard. I think they're, like, NDA'd up the walls.

[Interviewer 2]

They can probably get fired. Yeah, for sure.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Immediately fired. And it was on camera, but I got men to do it.

[Interviewer 1]

I'm just a girl.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Yeah.

[Interviewer 2]

[Interviewer 1]

So you work in accounts?

[Myha'la Herrold]

Yeah. Like, front office.

[Interviewer 1]

What Robert did person? Yeah, like, seasons two and three.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Is that what he did? What did he do?

[Interviewer 2]

Something like that.

[Interviewer 1]

It was like. He was just, like, charming the people that held the money, you know?

[Myha'la Herrold]

Yeah, absolutely.

[Interviewer 2]

What do you do with drugs? That's what he did.

[Myha'la Herrold]

He did and he did.

[Interviewer 1]

He did his clientele.

[Myha'la Herrold]

He. Yeah, that too. I don't think I could do that.

[Interviewer 2]

I hope he's doing okay. Whoever the character Rob is, I hope he's doing all right.

[Interviewer 1]

Yeah, I mean, he's investing in mushrooms in California.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Oh, right.

[Interviewer 2]

Yeah.

Damn. We gotta call him.

[Interviewer 1]

What is your guilty pleasure? Trash TV that you like to watch Prestige TV with industry and whatnot.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Let's talk.

[Interviewer 1]

Let's get into the gutter.

[Myha'la Herrold]

I love prestige tv, but I also love a new show that I'm watching right now that I. I can't recall the name of. It's like, is it reality? What's that place in Florida, Palm Beach?

[Interviewer 1]

The Palm Beach Housewives.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Basically on Netflix. I love it. Oh, yeah.

[Interviewer 2]

They psychos.

[Myha'la Herrold]

I love it. I. I mean, I'm only on, like, the second episode, but Mondo and I are eating it up. It's so good. I love that one woman. Romina. Go off, girl. You're gonna make it in Palm Beach.

[Interviewer 2]

They're just crazy women.

[Myha'la Herrold]

They're just, like, trying to make it in Palm Beach. They have money and they. It's all about, like. They were talking about being socialites, which I didn't think anybody could be anymore. I didn't know you could, like, be a socialite, but do whatever you say.

[Interviewer 2]

Your heart to, you know?

[Myha'la Herrold]

And so that's what they're trying to, like, be socialites.

[Interviewer 1]

So they're old.

[Interviewer 2]

They're older women.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Yeah, Yeah, I think Romina. Romina has three kids, but she's the youngest.

[Interviewer 1]

Oh, all right.

[Myha'la Herrold]

I don't know how old she. It's hard to tell how old anybody is, to be fair.

[Interviewer 1]

It. It's kind of Housewivesy, but it's. It's Netflix and it's not. Are you like a Bravo girly? What are you watching?

[Myha'la Herrold]

Oh, at the moment. Oh, see, I don't know that maybe I'm more of like a. Not a Bravo girly, because I also really love the Secret Lives of Mormon Wives.

[Interviewer 2]

Oh, that's what I think.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Yeah, that one's Hulu. But I will say I love Housewives of Salt Lake. Oh, that's the best.

[Interviewer 1]

The best.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Yeah, that's the best one. After Lisa Rinna left Beverly Hills.

[Interviewer 2]

Oh, okay.

You're like, that's the best one. What about is Erica Jane still on that one? I love her.

[Interviewer 2]

Well, she just got into legal trouble herself. Husband. Well, I guess maybe I'm thinking of an older thing, cuz her husband went to jail.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Yeah, okay.

[Interviewer 1]

Oh, wow.

[Myha'la Herrold]

At a movie premiere, she was sat behind me and I didn't want to say anything, but right at the end I was like, I just want to know you're. I just want you to know you're a legend and I really love you and respect you and that you're an idol and I love you. And she was like, thank you. Awesome.

[Interviewer 1]

[Myha'la Herrold]

Like, the acting is phenomenal. It's amazing.

[Interviewer 2]

I remember it was being very good, but I haven't rewatched it.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Corny. Because it's vampires. But that is good. It's also, like, ironic and aware of itself.

[Interviewer 2]

Nice.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Which I find very funny and kitschy and good. And the guy who plays the lead girl's brother. I don't know his name is amazing.

[Interviewer 1]

I'm starting to see clips pop up on my for you page. So I wonder if it's, like, about to be due for, like, a comeback or, like, a revisit from, like, Gen.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Z. I hope so, because it's really phenomenal.

[Interviewer 2]

Fingers crossed.

[Interviewer 1]

The COVID protocols were crazy.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Yeah.

[Interviewer 1]

[Myha'la Herrold]

Yes. Yes.

[Interviewer 2]

[Myha'la Herrold]

All you have to do.

[Interviewer 1]

Off the tongue.

[Interviewer 2]

It's going to happen. We're going to make it happen.

[Myha'la Herrold]

Yeah. Yeah. Please.
