Zoë Chao mentions Dakota with HFPA


How would you describe Katie, the character you play in The High Note, and her relationship with Maggie, played by Dakota Johnson?

Katie was based on screenwriter Flora Greeson’s best friend in real life. She is a doctor and Maggie’s roommate, she is her touchstone and sounding board, she is Maggie’s connection to the world outside of the music industry and she keeps Maggie grounded. It was really special working with Dakota, because we did a chemistry read together, and from the first second we met, it felt like we were old friends and our friendship has extended beyond the project.
