Interview: Monica Barbaro on Becoming Joan Baez in ‘A Complete Unknown’

In James Mangold’s A Complete Unknown, a young Bob Dylan (Timothée Chalamet) arrives in New York in search of his hero Woody Guthrie (Scoot McNairy) and connects with Pete Seeger (Edward Norton) as he begins his music career, which involves a professional and occasionally volatile relationship with Joan Baez (Monica Barbaro) and a temperamental romance with Sylvie Russo (Elle Fanning).

Awards Buzz spoke with Barbaro about stepping into this role and her impression of – and hints of her communication with – the real Baez. Watch the video above to hear about highlights of making this film and the late-breaking whirlwind awards journey she’s been on recently.

A Complete Unknown is now playing in theaters.
