Emily Hampshire: Becoming Jennifer Goines: Chaos, Comedy & Control
About this episode
Emily Hampshire interview is always electric — she’s one of those performers whose mind moves as fast as her characters. As Jennifer Goines on 12 Monkeys, she delivered one of the most unpredictable, heartbreaking, and darkly hilarious performances in modern sci‑fi. And now, with a slate of recent projects ranging from horror‑thrillers to sharp indie dramas, she’s in one of the most creatively exciting phases of her career.
This conversation explores how she built Jennifer’s fractured psyche, why she loves characters who “don’t care about being liked,” and how her career has expanded into bold new territory.
