Thandie Newton Video Interview On ‘Rogue,’ Learning To Shoot A Gun

Thandie Newton goes to the dark side in the new DirectTV series Rogue trying to solve the mystery of her son’s death. Newton connected with the role through her own work as a human rights activist. “The loss of children, the loss of family is happening all the time and all around the world,” she told Uinterview in an exclusive interview. “I work hard to try to raise awareness of those things.”

The British actress has appeared in a number of films, making her debut in the 1991 romance Flirting. She earned her reputation as a great actress with the roles in Beloved, Crash and Mission Impossible II.

Playing as the revenge-seeking mother in Rogue, Newton needed to learn how to shoot a gun — a situation she wasn’t very comfortable with. “I am very well aware of the fact that these weapons have been developed and made for one thing,” she told Uinterview. “I was very sad about that. I didn’t want nor did the show promote firearms as being cool.”https://youtu.be/EYmP_uk1-Os
