But she says she really struggled with playing the live-action version of her character. <\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\t\u201cI lost all of my confidence after <em>Mandalorian<\/em> \u2014 all of it,\u201d Sackhoff said on her <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/social-mediaa\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"1\" title=\"Social Media\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">YouTube<\/a> channel (below). \u201cMy style of acting has always just been [that] your first instinct is the right instinct. Do that. Play the reality of the situation. And I\u2019ve never really played a <em>character<\/em>. I\u2019ve always played two steps removed from myself, in a sense. [My characters] always felt grounded in some part of my belly of who I was. Bo-Katan is nowhere near who I am as a human being. Her life, what she wants \u2014 like, I didn\u2019t understand her. As much as I understood her, I never felt her in my stomach. I never identified with her. I didn\u2019t know how to find her. <\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\tSackhoff continued: \u201cVery Scary. It broke me. It just broke me, where I started doubting everything about myself. I\u2019m not a strong auditioner on tape, and I was having to put myself on tape. I wasn\u2019t booking anything. And for three years, I basically didn\u2019t work. And it just destroyed my confidence. I broke down and was like crying \u2026 I\u2019m not OK, man, I\u2019m so broken, I have no confidence left. I\u2019m lost.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube\">\n<p>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Tahmoh Penikett on Feeling Destined to Play Helo and Why BSG Matters More Than Ever\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/iktFxfDxUpo?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\tShe said she clashed with her former manager over the issue, after the manager told her, \u201c\u2018This is easy for you. You don\u2019t have to try. Stop trying so hard.\u2019 And I lost it at him one day and started screaming: \u2018You\u2019ve told me my entire life this is easy for me and it\u2019s not fucking easy and now I\u2019m falling apart.&#8217;\u201d Sackhoff said she got a new manager and enlisted the help of an acting coach to help her find confidence.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\t\u201cYou know what I would do differently?\u201d she added later about the <em>Mando<\/em> role. \u201cI think I was so scared that I was going to fuck up that as soon as I delivered the take I wanted to deliver, that\u2019s what I gave them. Up until that point in my career, I\u2019d give four different takes and think they\u2019d find it in post. I would change it and do something different every time and had fun with it. I tried so desperately to be so controlled.\u201d That said, she doesn\u2019t know if she would have changed her performance. <\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\tThe next <em>Mandalorian<\/em> project is the upcoming film <em>The Mandalorian &amp; Grogu<\/em> coming out next May and it\u2019s unclear if Sackhoff\u2019s character is in the film.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\tSackhoff will next be seen in a recurring role in the latest adaptation of Stephen King\u2019s horror classic <em>Carrie<\/em> \u2014 this time from frequent King adapter Mike Flanagan, who is making <em>Carrie<\/em> into an eight-episode Amazon Prime limited series. Sackhoff added during the video that she\u2019s feeling better working Carrie \u201cbecause I trust Mike \u2026 he\u2019s amazing.\u201d <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
