Series six of dystopian present Black Mirror debuted on Netflix on Thursday, with Beetz, 32, taking part in paparazzi photographer Bo in episode Mazey Day, starring Clara Rugaard and Danny Ramirez.
Talking about what it was wish to movie the episode, Beetz advised the PA news company: “It was very hazardous running through wild forests that were not pruned, through the brush and the bushes, and I think the night-time (filming) definitely made it dicey, but I guess that makes it more real.”
Mazey Day was shot in Spain and follows a troubled starlet who is continually being adopted by members of the paparazzi.
Parts of the episode happen at night time, however Beetz defined that a number of the scenes have been faked to look darkish.
She mentioned: “We actually had a lot of daytime things that kind of get faked for night. So a lot of the running, not all, some of the running in the woods, it was daytime.”
Portraying a member of the paparazzi who follows starlet Mazey Day, Beetz mentioned that she loved having the chance to modify up her perspective and discover one thing new.
“It was interesting to adjust perspective for the character and to understand sort of the motivation or empathy for someone who chooses to be paparazzi”, she mentioned.
“I think it’s a profession that a lot of people perhaps judge in terms of invasion of privacy and encroaching on people who don’t want to be encroached upon, but I also understand that there’s an element of symbiosis between celebrity and paparazzi.”
She added: “I enjoyed that element of growing the character and learning the character and coming at it from her point of view.”
Talking about Bo, Charlie Brooker, creator of Black Mirror, mentioned that Beetz was capable of stability the character’s complexities.
He mentioned: “Bo is a flintier character having to make some hard choices, but she’s got a conscience.
“We see that she’s slightly troubled by what she’s doing, but she’s also quite tough in that episode as well.
“Zazie is very charismatic, but she balances the complexity of the character. It’s a tricky role to pull off, but she’s more than capable of it.”
Series six of Black Mirror contains 5 hour-long episodes and stars actors that embrace Aaron Paul, Kate Mara, Salma Hayek, Annie Murphy and Rob Delaney.
Brooker mentioned that the sixth collection of Black Mirror has a larger number of tales than the final “because each episode is so radically different in terms of setting and tone”.
