00:00 Does it ever get normal? I don't think it ever does.
00:04 How special is it to be part of this franchise?
00:07 It's amazing. I was a huge fan of the book and then the first film and to be able to
00:15 explore a character like this was just a dream. It was really fun.
00:19 You're unrecognisable. Was that really nice, becoming that character?
00:23 Yeah, yeah. I was looking for something that was completely different and a challenge in
00:28 a way that I was getting to explore parts of myself that I never had and this was the
00:34 ideal thing to step into.
00:36 It's nice to have different kind of teeth as well, I guess, isn't it?
00:39 Timmy said that he was looking for you earlier. He loved working with you. How is the force
00:44 that is Timothee Chalamet on set? How was that?
00:46 Oh, it's fantastic. He works so hard and we really bonded quickly. It's nice to have somebody
00:55 around your similar age range who cares and is passionate and yeah, we've had a great time.
01:02 And I kind of guess he gets it, right? Because you're going through the same thing at the
01:05 moment. It's unbelievable. In regards to the other people that you were on set with, do
01:09 you admire them? Did you get many tips from them? Any inspiration?
01:12 Yeah, I admire every one of the actors that was on this set. It was incredible. That was
01:18 the magical thing about this is across the board from our cinematographer, Greg Fasher,
01:24 to every one of the actors, to every head of department. It was a group of people who
01:29 cared a lot and who were the best in their field and I feel very honoured to be a part
01:33 of that group.
01:34 And why should people see this? What's your message to the world?
01:36 Why should people see it? I don't know. I mean, you've got Denis Villeneuve making his
01:43 masterpiece in a way. It's such a privilege to go to the cinema and see a film of this
01:49 scale that also has all the heart of an independent film. So, yeah, it's fantastic.
