Kayle Hottle is a newcomer child star who plays Jia in the upcoming Godzilla vs. Kong movie. Jia communicates with Kong via sign language. Hottle is deaf in real life and on top of communicating with Kong via sign language, it seems one of her costars learned ASL for her.
Alexander Skarsgård revealed how he learned sign language for Hottle:
“It’s her first movie. It’s fascinating how comfortable she is in front of the camera and how quickly she takes notes from the director Adam [Wingard]. He’ll explain something and she’ll be like, ‘Got it, got it.’ Then she’ll just do it and everyone’s like, ‘The f— … how did she?'”
He added:
“She’s so professional. There’s so much going on on her face, her expression, and the subtleties of that is fascinating to watch.”
Godzilla vs. Kong hits theaters and HBO Max on 3/31.
