The actor, who recently portrayed Daryl Hannah on FX\u2019s <em>Love Story, <\/em>knows the reception to her role has been mixed, but she\u2019s not bothered \u2014 she\u2019s laughing along with the rest of us. \u201cThe memes are funny,\u201d the 38-year-old tells NYLON over Zoom. \u201cI\u2019m here for all of it. Everybody deserves to have an opinion. I know I have mine.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Set in \u201990s-era New York City, the latest anthology series from superproducer <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nylon.com\/articles\/ryan-murphy-the-assassination-of-gianni-versace-homophobia\" class=\"T3D\">Ryan Murphy<\/a> tells the tale of Carolyn Bessette and John F. Kennedy Jr.\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nylon.com\/articles\/jfk-jr-carolyn-bessette-kennedy-obsession\" class=\"T3D\">whirlwind romance<\/a> with the help of some scene-stealing set pieces and covetable vintage <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nylon.com\/fashion\/new-jeans-calvin-klein-campaign-interview-exclusive\" class=\"T3D\">Calvin Klein<\/a> looks. But before there was Carolyn, there was Daryl. Hannah and JFK Jr. dated on and off for five years, with the dissolution of their relationship playing out on <em>Love Story<\/em>. And though it was probably a distressing time to be Daryl Hannah, both in reality and in fiction, Hemingway loved every minute of it.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI would love to be Daryl all day long,\u201d she says. \u201cThat would be literally the dream. It was such a joy playing her. There\u2019s a sensitivity, there\u2019s a realness about her, and she\u2019s so specifically who she is that it was just so fun to explore that world of Daryl.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Now, with the cultural phenomenon in the rearview, we\u2019re catching up with Hemingway to get her true thoughts on the reactions to her role, working with Murphy, and the inside scoop on her next project: a film about her great-grandfather Ernest Hemingway\u2019s final years.<\/p>\n<div style=\"max-width:854px\" class=\"sWr iGR vrU\">\n<div>\n<div>\n<div class=\"bwd\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><strong>I imagine you\u2019ve been getting a lot of attention lately for your role in <em>Love Story<\/em>. How has that been for you?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s been so nice. It\u2019s nice to get attention for something that you\u2019ve worked really hard on. It\u2019s fun to see people being so invested in this show. You work so hard and you spend so much time with something and then it finally comes out and you just are like, \u201cAll right, here you go.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Have you been seeing people\u2019s reactions to your portrayal online?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I have seen people\u2019s reactions. I\u2019ve seen people being like \u201cOh, she\u2019s so annoying.\u201d And then looking up Daryl and being like \u201cOh, she did a good job\u201d or something like that. But it\u2019s good that people are talking. I guess that\u2019s all we could really want.<\/p>\n<p>The job is you do your work, you put in your energy, and then it goes into the ether, they edit it and it comes out. At the end of the day, it\u2019s up to the universe and the people.<\/p>\n<p><strong>I read that you wrote a letter to Daryl [Hannah]. What was the vibe of the note?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>It was really just a love note to her saying how much I admired her, how much I\u2019ve admired her as an actress and a woman, prior to even being cast as Daryl. How much I really just fell in love with her as a human being. I watched interviews and that feeling of really spending time with somebody you\u2019ve never spent time with, but researching. That was really the note, and just not like \u201cHey, I want to meet you or talk to you.\u201d Just, like, \u201cIt was really an honor of my lifetime to be able to portray you and research you.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Is there a reason why you didn\u2019t want to speak with her directly?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I would have loved to directly have spoken to her, but I guess there\u2019s nerves in directly speaking to somebody. I also didn\u2019t want to intrude in any way. I didn\u2019t want to make her feel awkward if that were something that she didn\u2019t want to do or something. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Did you end up hearing back from her?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I haven\u2019t heard back from her, but that\u2019s OK. It was not the expectation. It was more so just like \u201cI really appreciate you. I admire you as a person, a philanthropist, an actress.\u201d I wasn\u2019t trying to have her communicate back.<\/p>\n<p>I also think [she needs] her own time. The show\u2019s just come out; I&#8217;m sure there\u2019s a lot to digest there and stuff like that. What I really want to emphasize is that this is a dramatization. We are not exactly portraying her or how something went down. There\u2019s a fiction involved in all of this. With any person that you loved and you were dating, I\u2019m sure it\u2019s a hard thing. So, I think that it\u2019s nice to respect that and her.<\/p>\n<div class=\"sWr iGR\">\n<div class=\"QYV\">\n<div class=\"uES fEt\">\n<div class=\"QfP\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"uT7\">\n<div class=\"FDO\">\n<div class=\"vmZ XJ- jWP\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/imgix.bustle.com\/uploads\/image\/2026\/3\/4\/41f5d0bf\/dree-chloe-16-1.jpg?w=374&amp;dpr=2\" alt class=\"EdX\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"FDO\">\n<div class=\"vmZ XJ- jWP\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/imgix.bustle.com\/uploads\/image\/2026\/3\/4\/a97eaf9b\/dree-chloe-38-1.jpg?w=374&amp;dpr=2\" alt class=\"EdX\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"yOD GLK\">\n<div class=\"ki0 kpP\">\n<div class=\"MNV\"><\/div>\n<p><label for=\"lightboxCheckbox-454087918\" class=\"QNb y8V St5\"><button aria-label=\"open lightbox\" class=\"kMc\"><\/button><\/label><\/div>\n<div class=\"C1C\">\n<div class=\"ZXG\">\n<div class=\"F6c\"><button class=\"ikQ VkL\"><\/button>1 \/ 2<button class=\"ikQ Olc\"><\/button><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"LOc\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"igl f5y\"><button class=\"ikQ Xfx\"><span class=\"Od1\">INFO<\/span><\/button><\/p>\n<div class=\"itG\">1 \/ 2<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><strong>Had anyone ever told you that you looked like Daryl Hannah before filming?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>No, but it was funny because I remember growing up my mom used to be stopped in the airport as either Daryl or Michelle Pfeiffer. Never Mariel [Hemingway]. I assume that if my mom is stopped, then I look similar to my mother.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What were some of the interviews and clips that you watched to really learn how to be Daryl?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I have an amazing dialect coach, and we dug up a couple of interviews. I didn\u2019t want to watch any of her films, because I wasn\u2019t trying to play her as the actress, it was very much just her.<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s a couple different interviews I found that had different energies to them. There [were] the quieter versions or the more outspoken, and I just wanted to see how she was and how her mannerisms were. It was more of a study of that, in a sense. And then taking those mannerisms of what I had seen and interviews I had read of hers and stuff like that, and just trying to exude as much of what I felt was genuinely her into the character.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Will we see more of Daryl on <em>Love Story<\/em>?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>No. It\u2019s the Carolyn Bessette, JFK [Jr.] story, and you\u2019re seeing the end of his relationship with Daryl, which was a very long relationship. It was two people who had so much history together and who had really been through it together, and then you see him meet his love. [It\u2019s] the end of that love story into the new love story.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What was it like working with the cast and the crew?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Everybody is so talented. Ryan [Murphy]\u2019s sets are really a beautiful machine that everybody knows what they\u2019re doing. The cast were incredible. Mainly my scenes were all with Paul Anthony Kelly, and I love him tremendously. I couldn\u2019t be happier for him. I think he is so deserving of everything and all the praise he\u2019s getting. I think he\u2019s so magnificent.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nylon.com\/entertainment\/sarah-pidgeon-fx-love-story-carolyn-bessette-kenney-interview-90s-fashion-it-girl\" class=\"T3D\">Sarah [Pidgeon]<\/a>, we only met when we were in hair and makeup, but I love her as well. She\u2019s beyond talented. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nylon.com\/articles\/grace-gummer-interview-nylon-august-2016\" class=\"T3D\">Grace Gummer<\/a> is incredible. It was just such a magical feeling being on that set, because I think we were all just so excited to be doing what we were doing. It\u2019s such a great love story. The writing was so incredible, and [showrunner] Connor Hines is amazing. Connor Hines in general is my fashion icon, because his outfits were so magical while filming. I was like, \u201cWhat are you wearing today, Connor?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Even &#8230; Ceglia Michelle, who is head of hair, is incredible. Everybody\u2019s their own artist. It was just a really great experience.<\/p>\n<div class=\"sWr iGR CEt\">\n<figure class=\"Qf5 E1M FnM\">\n<div style=\"padding-top:150.0094%\" class=\"vmZ F8Y ap2\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/imgix.bustle.com\/uploads\/image\/2026\/3\/4\/c9cb58b4\/dree-the-row-41.jpg?w=414&amp;h=621&amp;fit=crop&amp;crop=faces&amp;dpr=2\" alt class=\"EdX\"><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p><strong>Fashion obviously plays a huge role in the show. Were there any specific looks that you really loved or items that you wore that you\u2019ve incorporated into your wardrobe after filming?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m not a big dress girl, and I\u2019ve definitely become more of a dress girl after doing this. Especially the wardrobe that Rudy had come up with for Daryl, was very&#8230; It felt very kind of \u201990s Galliano-esque, but more vintage in a sense. These dresses with these swoop necks and falling to the ground, stunning. Most everything I wore was no-name vintage. That was very much Daryl as well.<\/p>\n<p>I really, really fell in love with the outfit that I wore to meet Jackie [Kennedy Onassis] for dinner, when Jackie doesn\u2019t show up at dinner. I felt like it was very much Daryl\u2019s take on trying to do a Chanel suit and doing a dressed up look for that family. I thought it was very chic.<\/p>\n<p><strong>You\u2019re currently in the process of producing your first project, [<em>The Hemingway Files<\/em>], a film about your great-grandfather. What is it like working on something so personal?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>We\u2019re at the very beginning stages still. It\u2019s very exciting. It\u2019s personal, but it\u2019s also, like, he\u2019s still such a thing to people. It\u2019s the end of his life, and I think it\u2019s a very personal and intimate time that a lot of people don\u2019t necessarily know about. I\u2019m excited for this one. If done really well, which I think it will be, there\u2019ll be a lot of information that I think people didn\u2019t know.<\/p>\n<p><strong>When you say \u201cin the early stages\u201d&#8230;<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>We\u2019re still casting and things like that. We have a script that we\u2019re perfecting [with] incredible writers. Originally, the script was there, and I was asked to join in. This isn\u2019t me putting together this project; I was graciously invited into it. I\u2019m really grateful, because I really love it very, very much.<\/p>\n<p><strong>I have a mental image of you sifting through old boxes of family journals or documents that have been passed down, but I\u2019m sure it\u2019s not really like that when you\u2019re working on something like this.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s some of that, and there\u2019s a lot of people who aren\u2019t a part of our family, who are historians in knowledge of him and who have done so much research. There\u2019s a lot of talking to them and also, yeah, less sifting through boxes, but I wish it were as glamorous as sifting through old family boxes. We can pretend.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Is there anything you learned about your great-grandfather that you didn\u2019t know before?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m going to not give anything away.

But I think it\u2019s two different birds. When you do anything that is based on people \u2014 real people \u2014 you really have to do the research. What\u2019s really nice about <em>Love Story<\/em> is that, even though this is a dramatization, he really is focusing on the love story and isn\u2019t trying to cut anybody down in any way. I think it\u2019s been very beautifully portrayed.<\/p>\n<p>With <em>The Hemingway Files<\/em>, there\u2019s an element of that and the showing&#8230; I don\u2019t want to give too much away<em>, <\/em>but I think it\u2019s the research and the writing and really trying to portray a story in a beautiful way that\u2019s also touching to the audience and touching to the families involved.<\/p>\n<p><strong>I know you said you\u2019re still casting, but would you ever consider taking a role?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s no role for me. Unless I\u2019m in Idaho in the bar working&#8230; I could do that. Take a real small cameo. But honestly, there\u2019s no part of me that joined this to be in it. This really is not about me; this is about him. I signed on, which is an honor to be involved in this, but I\u2019m only a little factor of this project.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Do you have a message for the <em>Love Story<\/em> fans out there?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Watch it and enjoy. We need more love in our life right now in the world that we\u2019re living in.
