Josh O’Connor Talks Wake Up Dead Man, Frog Ponds, and More on Skip Intro

Josh O’Connor has four films out this year. In Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery, Rian Johnson’s latest whodunnit, he shape-shifts into a boxer turned priest.

O’Connor talks about how working with a stacked ensemble cast didn’t take away from the community and collaboration he craves, calling it “a beautiful thing.” He also reveals the moments on set with Daniel Craig and Glenn Close that left him in awe.

Plus, The Crown actor dishes on what preparation was like ahead of hosting SNL, how his very late introduction to TikTok came about, and the current state of his beloved frog pond.

Skip Intro with Krista Smith is available on Spotify or wherever you get your podcasts.
