Judi Dench affectionately described as a 'mischief maker' by former co-star
"The best actress I've ever worked with is Judi Dench, who's such a mischief maker. She's so delightful. She's so, so good. If you ever just want to just hear something short, listen to Judi Dench read a Shakespeare sonnet, just find one on YouTube, and it will move you to tears - you'll just think that is how English should be spoken."
"She's just amazing and yet, when you're doing a play with her, she's so funny, she's so naughty. Off stage, she's completely out of character, laughing, playing a practical joke, and then she walks on and it's all there."
"He's another level. I can't say I know him really, but it was just a pretty amazing experience to be around him in a film called Hostiles, but I don't think I met Christian, I think I only met the character. He's quite method. He's very method."
"It's just the level of truth, the level of commitment, integrity, truth. It's the sort of depth of it all the time. I think he just doesn't give anything away."
Rosamund Pike expressed her admiration for Dame Judi Dench, calling her the best actress she has collaborated with across their work in the 2009 production of Madame de Sade and the 2002 James Bond film Die Another Day. Pike described Dench as a delightful mischief maker who delivers extraordinary performances, particularly noting her Shakespeare sonnet readings. She highlighted Dench's ability to seamlessly transition between playful off-stage behavior and fully committed on-stage performances. Pike also praised American actor Christian Bale as the finest male actor she has worked with from their 2017 film Hostiles, emphasizing his method acting approach, profound commitment to truth, and the depth he brings to every role.
