Yeah i feel like we're going to be
talking about burritos
a lot today. It just seems to be already
a very recurring theme.
Definitely, yeah it's definitely a theme.
Yeah
Hey guys how's it all going lovely to
meet you my name's Caitlin.
What's up? I'm good. How are you all
holding up?
It's crazy times at the moment. I'm doing
well just had a burrito the other day.
um yeah. Well there's always time for a
burrito right?
And hey Josephine i'm actually in Perth
at the moment, which is where you're from.
Perth is doing amazingly and
i want to get in
and i can't. Ah tough times, so you're in
LA at the moment?
I am well, I hope things are
you know going okay and i hope you're
all holding up. I'll get straight into
it
So Hero and Josephine, you guys worked
together on the first movie "After",
so what was it like bringing
Dylan into the mix?
How did that change the dynamic up?
Um i think it i i i love i think for the
benefit of the movie like
it's like a you know it's the the
perfect kind of like you need to spice
up with some drama and complications
yeah it's just like one big messy
burrito i guess.
So um that's that that yeah that's that
no i'd love to have Dylan in there like i
am i kind of wish we had more work
together than we actually did
um in the movie yeah. Yeah i feel like
we're going to be talking about burritos
a lot today. It just seems to be already
a very recurring theme.
Definitely yeah it's definitely a theme.
yeah
yeah. So this question is probably... yes should
we just tell her?
We've been doing a thing for the past
couple yeah, we've been doing thing in
the past couple of interviews where
we're trying to get a word in.
Burrito!
Burrito, Burrito!
But it's good you sussed it, and now we can move on, finally.
Thank you for letting me in on this
little secret um
i hope you don't find another word
behind my back but anyway.
So this question is probably more
directed at Hero and Josephine
but do you feel like Hardin and Tessa
have changed a lot going into this
second
film? Do you think that we learn a lot
more about them? I do i think she's still fundamentally
herself and and she's still interested
in the same things
and she still has the same moral compass
and
and standards and everything i think
there's just lots of little things that
uh
have changed about her in terms of like
expectations and how she operates and
i i feel like in this movie where we're
getting a Tessa at a different stage in
her life.
Yeah, and for Hardin? Yeah i mean i i
would definitely say
i think his his i think his main kind of
and obviously everyone's when you're
lucky enough to like
play a uh a role in a story where like
time is going forward and
you know in large enough gaps where you
can the character is going to change too
i think the biggest
moment of change for Hardin came more so
in the first movie as opposed to in
between the first and second
um so so yeah but a hundred percent
there these are he's a i think the
charac the characters yeah the end of
the first movie compared to at the start
of the movie is very very different.
Yeah okay. So Dylan i read that producers
knew you were perfect
for the role of Trevor but i'd like to
know why you connected to this character
so much and what kind of attracted you
to the role?
Well that's a good question um i didn't
know that producers thought that but
that's very kind of them
um you know i think
in general my criteria is to not do
characters
uh in in terms of acting that appear too
similar
previous ones i did and Trevor was kind
of perfect for that because he
he he wasn't like something i had
performed before
um and i also knew a lot of people in
real life that were
like Trevor, so uh so i thought it was kind of a
fun opportunity to get involved and try
something out and after reading the
script which i liked
and talking to Anna as well who i
thought was great
um i kind of knew that i would have a
good time down in Atlanta and jumped
right in.
Awesome well i think you know for
Hero and Dylan your characters there's
this kind of overarching theme in movies
of like
the the good guy versus the bad guy
and i'm wondering whether you two feel
like your characters
actually fit those categories or is it
important to recognize that they're more
multifaceted than that?
I think it definitely is um with i guess
with like fictional characters it's fun
to play with the extremes and
like push push people in you know push
characters in certain directions to like
i guess get more entertainment out of
them and like put them all in the
melting pot and see what happens
um but yeah i think there's there's like
when i look at the
i feel like i i can resonate with with
with a bunch but i definitely do feel
like probably because of the constant
repetition of me putting myself in
harding shoes that i am
yeah definitely more kind of connect
connected
with him yeah okay i wouldn't it's hard
to even say that good guy bad guys
just like it's that character and that
character yeah. I guess it's just people at the end of
the day and and people can be very messy.
Exactly. Yeah, and I think it's testament to writing good
characters right?
If characters don't seem like they have
any justification for their actions
then they do end up like uh looking like
cartoon characters in a way
where they're just either super evil or
super good
morally and it's just at that point in
time it's not very real
Hardin Scott? I didn't peg you as a bad
boy type.
Let me ask you this, are you in love with
him?
You're never gonna trust me. Trust you?
Where has that ever
gotten me? So this film is bound to be
very very popular with young people and
teens so i'd like to get your
perspectives, maybe we can start with you
Josephine,
on you know why you think this story has
resonated so much with young people and
why it's so relatable?
I think uh when you have something that
really
material that really connects to people
a part of it
is this x factor i don't know factor
of sometimes you just don't know why
this something
pops but something else doesn't but the
majority uh i think the major reason
is because there's something about this
relationship
and this story that people can relate to
or that people maybe can't relate to but
just find
incredibly entertaining and it pulls
them in like a magnet. Yeah, did anyone else have anything to
add to that?
No i mean i think that like Jo said, i think
a lot of it is is it comes down to like
the story that Anna's created from the
books
and um we're just kind of trying to not
mess up while bringing it to life.
Yeah yeah and that's actually a good
point because you know this has such a
massive
fandom do you feel a sense of pressure
to kind of do right by these characters?
Uh i think you yeah you feel this
responsibility
to to get it right for sure and
but there's a certain level of uh it
being out of your control
you know you show up and you you
play your role with the best of your
ability and then film has so many
elements that you just never really know
how it's going to turn out and so you
hope and um
I hope that fans um
really love this experience and they get
something different than they got in the
first film
Yeah definitely. So reflecting on filming
you know was there a really memorable
moment that stuck out to you guys
something really funny or something
really emotional
any cool stories you have to share?
Um we to try and like mix it up and like
you know like kind of i'm trying to
think of like a
i mean um i broke a door, Jo fell out of
a bed.
Very funny. How on earth did you break a
door?
Kicked it. That does the job.
But no no burritos were involved in any
of this?
Well there are burritos involved every day
it's just
it's not very memorable when they're
every day. I'm very i'm very lucky that i
didn't fall down
in this one i fell down a few times in
the first one i can be a little clumsy. 
Right.
Ah, well i'm glad that didn't happen.
Is there something that you guys would
like viewers to take away
from this film is there a message or
something about relationships
that you'd like them to kind of walk
away with that message?
I guess they can try and learn from from
from the mistakes that Tessa and Hardin
make and hopefully like
be be inspired by by um by i guess like
their
their resilience but i think everyone
needs to needs to remember that it's
it's different for everyone and it is
just a movie at the end of the day and
you can't take it too literally but
i definitely think that there are some
notes in there that you can that you can
take away
but i guess ultimately uh just
enjoy the movie and tell all your
friends.
Perfect well it's been a pleasure
talking to you guys i know we don't have
much time left so we'll leave it there
um but good luck for the rest of the day
and i hope you stay safe.
Thank you thank you so much for putting
up with us. Oh no
it's never it's never putting up with
when we're talking about burritos.
