Juggling the two accents at the same time was no easy stunt.
Juno remembers when she first started doing dialect sessions, she was still doing season three of 'Ted Lasso,' so she was speaking Essex, while also being Juno in real life. And then there's Juno's inside voice. And then Dot was coming to life. Her brothers came over to see her, and she tried out the Minnesota accent on them, and they both just looked at her and were like, 'How long is it before you start this?' Temple recalls that she was like, 'Oh, no.' So, it took me a minute.'
Temple's character is also involved in various action scenes. The actress revealed that she did some of her stunts herself including setting someone on fire. She said that she thinks it is the craziest thing she ever had to do at work.
'Fargo' season five premieres Tuesday at 10 p.m. on FX.
