Go to Bat is a video series from The Independent that sees an actor or director pick a film from their back catalogue they think deserves more love. So often, stars are asked about the films they’re synonymous with – but this series provides them with a chance to talk about the projects that were either unfairly maligned upon release or generally underseen. Every episode will see a guest pick the one or two films or TV shows they think fits this bracket.

The latest guest is British actor Jared Harris . Throughout his career, the star, who is the son of acting titan Richard Harris, has turned in a number of memorable performances in TV shows ranging from Mad Men and Fringe to Apple TV+ series Foundation . Harris was promoting his new drama Reawakening , co-starring Juliet Stevenson and Erin Doherty.



The film, written and directed by Virginia Gilbert, follows a married couple facing old tensions when their daughter reappears years after vanishing as a teenager. Find out which credits Harris has gone to bat for – and why – in the video interview above. Reawakening is in cinemas now.
