The Big Picture The first time I saw Samara Weaving on screen, she instantly made a major impression by fearlessly going to an 11 in Season 1 of Ash vs. Evil Dead. After that came Mayhem in which she and Steven Yeun fight their way through an office building royal rumble. She shines in The Babysitter as the leader of a devil-worshipping cult, she kicks all the you-know-what in the 2019 gem Ready or Not, and she plays the top-contender in a live-streamed death match in Guns Akimbo.
Clearly Weaving has loads of experience working in this space, but the role of Azrael comes with a laundry list of extreme performance challenges. There's the intense action set pieces, the on-location filming, the fact that there’s no dialogue, and then some. Here’s what Weaving said when asked what aspect of playing Azrael she thought would be the toughest when she first signed on:
Katz took a moment to jump in and emphasize that building a fun on-set environment for such a film was only possible because of how Weaving approached the work. “I think with Ready or Not there was a little bit of that because it was in the cold, me running around with blood all over me, so I thought, ‘Okay, it’ll be an extended version of that.’”
