Julia Fox reflects on the relationship between success and sacrifice in 'Him'

I had someone hold my hand to come to you

I, I, no. And they were booing me on the way out. No! Rightfully so, I'm sorry

Sorry, scare tactic folks. It's character building. Yes, you know what? At 29, I can still get that

I want to be the GOAT. Cameron Kane. Great meeting you. I'm a fan

That's crazy. I damn near worship you, girl, I know. Who are you

I'm him! Who are you? I'm him! My time! There's an unspoken suggestion in him

Those at the very top may feel almost detached from human emotion

How do you personally navigate the relationship between success and sacrifice, especially participating in this film

You know, I think it's always a push-pull kind of thing. I think a lot of it just has to do with the individual

I know for me personally, I'm a mom. I have a young child

so you know I can't really do all the things I wish I could do so for me I would say my biggest

sacrifice comes from the time that I'm willing to sacrifice think of it as a gift from the God

it was a lot of shedding as a was doing do you think shedding parts of yourself is necessary to

succeed in a competitive field, be it sports or the arts. Absolutely. I think there, you know

it kind of calls for you to disconnect a little bit from your wants and desires

maybe even like your bodily functions. You know, I know a lot of players, you know, won't eat the

foods they love. They won't even, you know, they just stop everything in order to just be a hundred

discipline kind of. Exactly Yeah So you know I think for them especially in sports which is such you know calls for such physical sacrifice Their sacrifice is like literally no no bounds

It's from, it's every single aspect, you know. It's a little dehumanizing, I would say, the way that they're treated, you know, even the way that they can be traded overnight and you move to a city

With no rhyme or reason or even like forewarning. Exactly. And it's, you're human

You're going to get attached to your players. the city, you brought your family there and now child needs to change school

The fans, exactly. Like, I feel like a lot of these players get so much identity, you know, from the teams

they play with. And then overnight that can just be gone. So, or overnight they could get an injury that's not even their fault, but then their

used goods, you know, and I don't think I realized it before because I never really

thought about sports, but making this movie called for it. And I can, I really empathize

Also, it's really the only field where men are treated like women in the sense that they are on a deadline or a clock, a biological clock

And they're only good before the age of 40, which is giving very much what women go through in the real world

So parallel is like insane. You make a movie and it flops, but not because of your performance, because of bad direction or someone else did something

They blame you. Exactly and then it's like oh you're no longer hot. So a lot of it does feel like I understand the superstitions that come with this field and sports

Because a lot of it does feel so out of your control and it does feel like luck

And so you do feel like you are submitting to this higher power and you can just hope to stay in their favor for as long as possible
