The Oscar-nominated actress explained that the Succession star was a hit with Maltida, as he’d pretend he was a pony and allow her to ride on his back: And as of late, she’s opened up about the time right after his death and how fellow actor Jeremy Strong stepped up when it came to her daughter.

This is a very touching anecdote about Strong’s role in providing comfort to a grieving family after a terrible tragedy … but it also sort of confirms his all-in method-actor vibes, doesn’t it? “Jeremy was serious enough to hold the weight of a child’s broken heart and sensitive enough to understand how to approach her through play and games and silliness,” Williams, who also announces her pregnancy in this interview, told Variety. “[Matilda] didn’t grow up with her father, but she grew up with her Jeremy and we were changed by his ability to play as though his life depended upon it, because hers did.”

In both Venom films, her character, Annie, had to serve as a host for Venom during some difficult moments in the ever-complicated Eddie/Venom relationship.
