Ahead of Glow's season 3 premiere, revisit AlisonBrie opening up about training for the show.
came to me. My agents called me and said "Jenji Kohan's producing a show for Netflix. It's about a women's wrestling television show in the eighties." And I said, "I want that job!" I wasn't familiar with the original GLOW. But it only took a quick Google search and watching a handful of YouTube videos for me to be so flabbergasted by it and excited by the idea. It's unlike anything I have read or seen before. It was such a wild concept.
It's fun to take on a different era and have a different style of hair and makeup and wardrobe and to be in a leotard, constantly. The appeal of the physicality of the show, having to actually do our own stunts and our own wrestling seemed like a very exciting idea. We had to answer a number of questions about what kind of physical shape we were in. But I didn't have to do any sort of physical audition, really.
Has the training changed you since you've started doing all the training for this? Do you feel different as a person?. The show has been completely empowering. And yes, learning to use my body in a different way, aside from my strength training, learning how to wrestle and throw women across a ring and be thrown is incredibly empowering and humbling and also requires an incredible amount of teamwork and vulnerability.
A fun piece of trivia actually about this costume is that at that Halloween party, this was years before my husband Dave and I met. After we started dating, we realized that we had both been at this same Halloween party. And then I found a video on my computer of me and my friends singing "I Heard It Through The Grapevine" and in the back of the video, you can see Dave and his friend dressed as Mario and Luigi.
