Partner director and cast in its horrible end and future

PRECANZATION MARKETING FOR WARNER BROS. ‘ Buddy I could have made you sure that the whole game was given away. That is and is not true: yes, Iris (Sophie Thatcher) finds out that it is a robot, and you can make an educated guess what happens next. But for the writer/director Drew Hancock and his two protagonists, getting there was a creative challenge.

Shortly after the revelation of the robot, it turns out that Iris is a pawn in a plan of her boyfriend Josh (Jack Quaid) and her friend Kat (Megan Suri) to kill Kat’s boyfriend, Sergey (Rupert friend) and steal the cash In his vault. In an interview with Weekly entertainmentHancock revealed that Iris would have originally killed Sergey with a cork of automatic wine. A final iris vs. Josh Showdown was always in the cards, but when it was time to kill Josh, he could not overcome a cork of wine to the brain, so he changed things: now Josh would get the wine cork and Sergey took a pocket knife in The throat, a weapon Josh placed in the things of Iris. “Changing that was perfect,” said Hancock, “because Jack could be complicit in the knife plantation, so everything worked.”

As for Thatcher and Quaid, both felt a little crazy firing the disappearance of Josh, which was made at 5 am. Thatcher admitted to EW that he had been “quite exhausted” at that time, which “joined the madness of everything. I think I had three cans of Celsius, and I felt out of body.” Quaid echoed that feeling and He called him “one of the most creative ways I have died in something. It was our final scene that we filmed, and it was very fun to die that way and then make everyone applaud when the movie ended. “

Buddy He ends with Iris driving with Sergey’s money and now with a complete self -control thanks to a technician from his creator, Empathix. Hancock told him Variety He has small follow -up ideas, but they are just that: little thoughts about what Iris sees when he is sleeping, potentially finding love again or turning human life. (Being the owner of a farm was a suggestion, or simply “enjoying sunset.”) Alternatively, there is always the Smile route and focusing on a new protagonist: anything is on the table for Hancock, except for creating a Value of the West script. But such plans will have to wait, since he is now working on a restart of The Faculty.
