VIDEO EXCLUSIVE: Nina Hoss & Betty Gabriel On Working With John Krasinski & Wendell Pierce On ‘Jack Ryan’

Tom Clancy’s Jack Ryan series is back for Season 3. This time, the CIA takes Jack Ryan to Rome, where he finds himself in the middle of a larger conspiracy than he originally thought.

Nina Hoss, who plays Alena Kovac, and Betty Gabriel, who plays Elizabeth Wright, recently sat with uInterview founder Erik Meers to discuss working with iconic actors John Krasinski and Wendell Pierce.

“Wendell, I don’t even know what I was laughing at … not at him, but he just makes me laugh like no other,” Gabriel shared. “There were several moments of, that in between takes or within the scene, I’m just like, ‘Stop doing that Wendell!’ I’m cracking because it’s just so fun to have fun in quite a serious context. These are CIA operatives and it’s high stakes and it’s very serious, but within that, there was a lot of fun.”

“I don’t really have just one anecdote that I can deliver to you, and it has nothing to do with a colleague, but it is jumping into a real cold river at the Danube … having to really, physically do that and not being in a studio of some kind where it’s warm, heated up water,” Hoss revealed. “I had to jump in at night into the cold Danube with big currents and hanging on to a [line] on the bottom so that your jacket doesn’t float up on it’s own. That’s something I will clearly remember 20 years from now.”

Season 3 of Jack Ryan is now streaming on Amazon Prime.
