Day recently spoke to Harper's BAZAAR (opens in new tab) about the emotional, mental, and physical discipline it took to play the legendary jazz singer.

"It was about allowing myself to act in a way that was kind of, if not reckless, hurtful to me," Day told BAZAAR. 'My acting coach told me, you can't give yourself away. You have to have Billy and you have to bring Andra through Billy."

Day also compared the process of preparation to that of going on stage or recording music, and his willingness to give his all for the project.
