Despite Billy Crudup's journalist character's initial belief that Jacqueline Kennedy (Natalie Portman) was a lightweight, during the course of their encounter, Jackie often leaves him off-balance, even speechless. Crudup, who plays the reporter, said creating that tense energy with Portman was thrilling. "In many respects, they are speaking in code to each other. They are both powerful, impressive people, who think they can work the other one over. So for us as actors, it was a great opportunity to play with silences as they circle each other, each trying to ascertain how much influence they have. What you see again and again, is that Jackie is the one who is really deeply in control, and ultimately the journalist is won over by that." Crudup noted.
