Chase Infiniti is making headlines for her recent performances.

The actress first gained attention when she starred in Presumed Innocent with Jake Gyllenhaal. Now she is making waves with the recently released Paul Thomas Anderson directorial One Battle After Another.

From TV shows to movies, Chase Infiniti is leaving her mark everywhere. The actress never fails to credit her costars for their support and the skills she learns from them.

In a recent interview with Teyana Taylor for Interview Magazine, Infiniti was full of praise for her former co-star, Jake Gyllenhaal. Talking about how her Presumed Innocent co-star, Gyllenhaal, and One Battle After Another co-star, Leonardo DiCaprio, are different in their acting approaches, she said:

"Jake really taught me how to raise the stakes. Especially in that project, because it was a really emotionally intense show. He and that entire team helped guide me, since that was my first project. I was like, “I don’t really know the lay of the land. I don’t know how any of this works.” It was helpful for him to show me around on set and let me know how that kind of culture is."
"And then working with Leo, since I had those foundations of working on set, he helped expand that knowledge. I put so much pressure on myself, especially at the start, to be like, “Okay, I have to make sure that I do a great job.” And Leo really helped me get out of my own way and move forward, and just be there with him in the scene."

Chase Infiniti’s journey from Presumed Innocent to One Battle After Another

The role Chase Infiniti played in Presumed Innocent was a major turning point in her career, not only because of the twist, but also for the way that it helped her step out into larger projects.

Now the actress is starring in One Battle After Another as Willa, a daughter caught in a revolution, and shares the screen with some of the biggest stars in Hollywood, such as Leonardo DiCaprio and Teyana Taylor.

What is even more impressive is the fact that Chase Infiniti auditioned for One Battle After Another while she was still shooting for Presumed Innocent. The juggling of two projects proves her commitment and diligence, and shows how her talent, respect, and drive keep her moving forward.
