Hannah Einbinder Discusses Horror-Comedy Link and Emmy on The Run-Through
Hannah Einbinder, a third-generation Angeleno, appeared on Vogue's The Run-Through podcast hosted by Chloe Malle. She is currently promoting Jane Schoenbrun's film "Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma," in which she plays Kris, a young queer director reviving a slasher franchise. Einbinder, who was previously less familiar with slashers but well-versed in horror, draws parallels between comedy and horror, citing the tension-and-release dynamic. She notes that Schoenbrun has a comedy background from UCB. For the premiere, Einbinder plans to get a bloody slasher-style manicure from a New York City nail artist. She also discussed her role as Ava Daniels on "Hacks," which has ended; she remains in regular contact with co-star Jean Smart, sharing memes. Einbinder won her first Emmy for the series but keeps the award hidden, inspired by her grandfather, a decorated war hero who stored his medals in a manila envelope.
