<\/a><\/p>\nDree Hemingway may be American but she’s got that English rose beauty look down to a tee. Wearing a Hugo Boss tailored black suit, with freshly died girl-next-door brown hair, her Idaho accent radiates energy. She may be about to make Hollywood fame but the tom-boy with a dry English humour is no starlet \u2013 she’s refreshingly down to earth. Following her new role as a protagonist in\u00a0Mercedes-Benz AW15 visual campaign,\u00a0<\/span>Wonderland\u00a0<\/em> head to\u00a0Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Berlin to talk\u00a0stealing cars, having a radar on the cops and M&S cotton panties with the rising star.<\/span><\/p>\n What are you up to at the moment?<\/strong><\/p>\n I finished one film in September called \u201cHappy People\u201d and then I\u2019ve been filming for two months on this film called \u201cThe People Garden.\u201d It\u2019s based in this suicide forest outside of Mount Fuji in Japan. It\u2019s a real forest, not a true story.<\/p>\n Have you been?!<\/strong><\/p>\n Im going right after here! Im kind of excited though. In Japan its an honourable way to die. There is something less scary about it than\u2026.<\/p>\n Why do you think Collier chose you as her leading lady?<\/strong><\/p>\n I\u2019m always very confused when some choose me to be the sexy vivacious blonde, then it comes out and I\u2019m like Oh! That\u2019s why! I love what I do, I love cars, I love doing moving images , creating a story. Before I started doing movies and acting I was a model. I studied acting and then I used modelling as a tool to learn how to act. I owe my acting career to my modelling career. With Collier its not just about doing this sexy bombshell- there\u2019s a story and there is something very classy about it that I like. She has that tomboy aspect as well, that Helmut Newton esq feeling, where its these beautiful but tough women.<\/p>\n It was hardly Loaded magazine was it?!<\/strong><\/p>\n It very well could have gone down that line, I watched the video and I was kind of excited, but nervous. I was with two Formula One racing drivers wearing a black dress and red lipstick in a car studio. It could have gone in the complete opposite direction. It kind of has that Rush, 70\u2019s aspect, like old racecar drivers.<\/p>\n It was an amazing shoot, really captured the Mercedes.<\/strong><\/p>\n That turbine was amazing wasn\u2019t it? Better than a wind machine?<\/p>\n Or a hair dryer?<\/strong><\/p>\n The leaf blower is one of my favourites,<\/p>\n Going back to what you said about moving images, do you find yourself taking direction differently when it\u2019s a still image opposed to a film?<\/strong><\/p>\n I still tend to move fluidly, I was a dancer for years and that\u2019s how I work fast so when somebody says on camera, \u201cDon\u2019t move! You cant move , im just going to place you!\u201d I\u2019m probably not that person and I shouldn\u2019t be hired. But then I also respect the stillness , through silence and stillness there is like is some movement and a story in your head , something being portrayed through your eyes. I think some of my favourite moments in films are these blank stares where nobody moves at all and there is something more meaningful in that, than somebody who does too much.<\/p>\n What was it like working with Collier?<\/strong><\/p>\n She\u2019s incredible. I met Collier years and years ago when I first started modelling, we had a funny meeting at my agency. We both watched each other grow into something\u2026even though she is much more established and well known . We have both watched each other find ourselves in different ways. She is what I like in a photographer in the sense that she loves a woman, but I like that aspect that it doesn\u2019t have to be so..clich\u00e9?<\/p>\n It was really intimidating being hired by Mercedes-Benz, because of all the commercials that I\u2019ve seen. Tilda Swinton\u2019s and Karlie Kloss , they defiantly stepped out of the clich\u00e9 world . So I was very honoured to be chosen to be a part of this artistic movement that they are going. Trying to show more of story and its not just about the car.<\/p>\n Who is easier to work with: the men or the car?<\/strong><\/p>\n The car was such a fucking diva.<\/p>\n
