Viewers of the new series “Quack” will be able to watch it on September 27 on Netflix. Apart from Leszek Leshota, the cast included: Maria Kowalska, who played Professor Wilczor’s daughter. Ignacy Liss as Count Czyński, Isabella Kuna, who played his mother, Countess Czyńska, and Anna Szymańczyk, who played Zośka, the mill owner.
Truth spoke with the lead actor during the ceremonial premiere at the National Theater in Warsaw. The actor told us about working on the set.
Was Leszek Leshota afraid of the role of the medicine man?
When Leszek Lechota was offered the role of Professor Wilczor, he did not hesitate for long. It was a huge challenge, but she was eager to start the new production.
— I thought it was a challenge, and I felt I had to accept it, that at every stage of professional life there comes a moment when you have to dare, go beyond your comfort zone and face something that might cause a social storm and debate. Because he did. However, this did not make me feel any fear, but rather I thought about what new things could be introduced, and how this character could be shown again without deviating from it – Leszek Leshota told us.
The actor admitted that the character of the doctor was so well written that it was a pleasure to play him.
– There is something in the story written by Dołęga-Mostowicz that the character conveys, it is simply very well written, it has so much positive emotion and energy that if the actor allowed himself to bring it out, there would be no problems. One thing we agreed on right away was that we had to be honest, and that we couldn’t fall back on some creative acting, and pretend that we had to be honest – said the actor and added that the fact that Jerzy Bencicki had played the medicine man before him, just galvanized him.
When building this character, I knew we knew her, but I didn’t want to escape from her. Even if some of the colors and sounds from previous edits did appear, it wasn’t bad. It didn’t bother me. I thought to myself that it was a kind of generational relay race. “Quack” was made in the 1930s, then in the 1980s, and now we come to it 40 years later. The director and I coined a saying about “the charlatan years” because I played the charlatan at the same age as Jerzy Pincicki, and the director was the same age as Jerzy Hoffmann. This is the perfect time for us to get down to business,” Leshota told us.
