Based on a true story, 'Unsung Hero' follows David Smallbone (KING + COUNTRY’s Joel Smallbone) as he moves his family from Australia to the United States, after his music company goes out of business. With his pregnant wife Helen (Daisy Betts), they find themselves in Nashville looking for a brighter future for their seven kids.
I talked to Betts about her role in the film and what it was like playing the real life mom of her co-star and director, Joel Smallbone.
Here's a bit more of what's in the interview:
• Betts talks about the challenges of acting opposite the co-writer and co-director, who is the son of the character she portrays.
• She shares parallels between her own life and the character's story, having moved back to Australia while pregnant with her fourth child.
• Betts praises the collaborative and ego-free atmosphere on set, emphasizing teamwork and dedication.
• As a mother in real life, Betts relates to her character's struggles and parenting role. She also appreciates the subtle portrayal of motherhood in the film, feeling seen and appreciated as a mother herself.
