We’ll hear the conversation that Yvonne Villarreal, who covers television for the L.A. Times and co-hosts our Envelope podcast, had with Academy Award-winning actor Kate Winslet. They talk film, TV — and all about Kate’s starring role in the critically acclaimed HBO series “Mare of Easttown.” A research trip to a Wawa convenience store was a requirement to prepare for the role, Winslet said: “It almost felt like a mythical place.” Villarreal and Winslet also discuss the long-anticipated film “Avatar 2,” directed by James Cameron, and how to hold your breath underwater for seven minutes.
