Jessica Chastain is an American actress who won Academy Awards for 'The Eyes of Tammy Faye' and was nominated for 'Zero Dark Thirty', and who played the adult Murphy Cooper in 'Interstellar' — a physicist who solves the equation that saves humanity.
Chastain's Murphy provides 'Interstellar' with its hardest emotional register — an adult woman whose rage at abandonment remains permanently alive even after understanding why her father had to leave — making the film's physics inseparable from the psychology of forgiveness.
