00:00 You want to know all about me, but what about you?

00:02 You know all you need to know.

00:04 Is that right?

00:08 Chemistry is not something you can get ready for.

00:11 It kind of either is or it isn't.

00:13 The fact that we both feel so comfortable with each other

00:16 and we trust one another really is the entirety of this movie.

00:20 You're enjoying your pie?

00:22 All pie is good pie.

00:23 I always define this movie as an exploration of humanity, identity and passion.

00:27 His passions lead him in a direction where he's deceiving someone he's in love with.

00:31 He has to deal with those repercussions.

00:35 And this guy is the most dishonest, fraudulent kind of person there is.

00:40 Gary goes undercover and pretends to be a hitman

00:44 and incriminates all these people until he meets Madison.

00:49 Then the whole story kind of takes a mind of its own.

00:53 I got something we can play with.

00:55 I like the sound of that.

00:56 Pick a hand.

00:57 Left.

00:58 You lose.

00:59 Whoa, what is that for?

01:00 Casting Madison was, god, that was the crucial moment really.

01:04 It had to be someone a guy would risk everything they've worked for and have to be with

01:09 and yet she had to be very sympathetic.

01:11 Ultimately what we were asking her to do is just be a real person.

01:14 She isn't the black widow.

01:15 She's just really complex like all of us.

01:17 No.

01:18 Yes.

01:19 We never wanted that character to fall into a trope.

01:22 We didn't want her to be a femme fatale.

01:24 We found Audrey, it was like the heavens opened.

01:26 It was like, yes.

01:27 Why does a gentleman not kill in town?

01:29 I love people.

01:30 And yet you killed him.

01:31 Glenn as an actor and as a person, he's incredibly open and he's thoughtful and he's kind.

01:36 We both make really good scene partners.

01:38 I think a smart actor reads the script and knows what's required.

01:41 For this to work, we've got to hit this level of believable and sexy and funny

01:46 and they were both so up for that challenge.

01:49 Our chemistry was so airtight that it was so effortless.

01:54 Why don't you show the picture?

01:56 And we couldn't have planned for it.

01:57 It just kind of happened.

01:58 It was just a joy to act with her every day.

02:00 We just had the best time making this movie.
