THE CANADIAN PRESS/HO-Paramount Plus With Showtime-Jason Bell **MANDATORY CREDIT**When Ewan McGregor first met Mary Elizabeth Winstead on the set of the FX series “Fargo” in 2016, he couldn't deny the chemistry that crackled between them.

“ 1/8 Ewan 3/8 was reading the book to get more of a sense of the world, and he just started looking at me and going, `Oooh, there's a woman in this book that's very interesting and you should take a look at it,” Winstead says during an interview in Toronto. Winstead plays Anna Urbanova, a glamorous actress who becomes romantically involved with Rostov while staying at the hotel.“There's nobody I find more fun to act opposite than Ewan because he just brings so much out of me. He's so charming and fun and he has such a spark and energy to him that's infectious.”

McGregor says reading the script for “A Gentleman in Moscow” gave him the same feeling as when he read the script for his 1996 breakthrough “Trainspotting.” “The backdrop of our story is the revolution that led Russia to where we are today, to Putin. We started mounting the series before Putin invaded Ukraine, but it happened while we were making this show and it felt terribly relevant.”“We get to see how there were people at that time who believed in a better Russia and maybe had good intentions, and to see how a dictator can take those good intentions and turn them into something nefarious,” she says.

“We didn't stay in character but we would run our lines together for sure,” laughs McGregor, adding he would often be learning lines after putting their son to bed, because Rostov is “a very wordy character.”
