— how do you feel about those comparisons and what were some of your actual inspirations for the film?, obviously there's this pressure cooker in that, and there's a way that is constructed that was interesting to us because I really wanted the pressure in this. Andis obviously about the banking community, but for us and the way that we approached this, it's about the individual.
When I think of Nick Offerman and Seth Rogen, I think of them playing the types of characters who would have been more on the Reddit side of things, and yet here they play the billionaire finance guys. Talk to me about that decision and why they were the right fit for those parts. It's kind of twofold. What I loved about Rebecca and Lauren's script is it's not black and white. It's gray. We try to make these characters as fully formed as possible. And I thought it was important that the banking system are the villains in this — it's the system that is at fault. And we wanted to show that there are individuals behind this.
COVID plays a very big part in the film. At what point in the pandemic were you filming and how did it influence the final product? We were very much in COVID when we were filming. It was still all the protocols and the testing and the masks — it wasn't a distant memory by any means. This movie is so much about COVID. Honestly, this would not have happened without COVID as a backdrop for the whole reason this transpired.
