"The way that we played that scene was really interesting," he mused in an interview with MovieWeb published on Tuesday, "because we talked about it a lot, and we basically played the scene in those various tones multiple times, like innocent throughout the whole take, and then just slowly, gradually got darker and darker to where it ended up." He continued, "So, we could kind of choose when we were editing where we wanted the turn to start to happen. I think he just was unafraid. He would just go darker and darker."
