Glenn Close Zoomed Three Times A Week With Language Coach To Learn Farsi For ‘Tehran’

Glenn added that learning the language “was very challenging. It has a different sentence structure. It’s more like German, with the verb at the end. You use your mouth differently. It has certain sounds that we don’t have in English. But I had a phenomenal coach in Anna Bayat, who worked with me on Zoom three times a week.”

She continued, “It’s just a lot of — you start with one word at a time, then sentences, then repetition, repetition, and then you have to learn the proper intonation, and then you have to say it faster than you think you ever can say it.”

Tehran centers on Tamar (Sultan), an Israeli agent and computer hacker born in Iran but raised in Israel, is tasked with infiltrating an electric company to cut power to Iranian air defenses.

Thereby an Israeli air attack against Iranns nuclear power plant will be undetected. The mission goes terribly wrong and ends in a race against time.
