00:00Action!

00:02Eddington is a story about a small town in New Mexico.

00:07This is the summer of 2020.

00:08COVID is in full effect.

00:10But, you know, Ari's version, reading the script,

00:13I was like, you son of a bitch.

00:15The guy that put me through Hereditary and Midsommar,

00:18I was in heaven.

00:19It was one of those experiences

00:20I knew I wanted to be a part of it immediately.

00:22I think he's the greatest director of our generation.

00:25I love his writing so much,

00:27and Ari has a deep talent for turning things on their head.

00:31He's the funniest guy I know,

00:33makes adjustments spontaneously on set.

00:35So I just was like,

00:36well, I just want to keep working with him.

00:37And then Pedro showed up,

00:39and there was this whole new energy.

00:41They're your street, Sheriff.

00:43They're your streets to keep safe,

00:44and where is your man's?

00:45Joaquin is the sheriff.

00:47I'm the current mayor,

00:48and I'm running for re-election.

00:49We're watching these two men compete,

00:51exacerbated by lockdown.

00:53Six feet.

00:57I wanted to make a really good film about the Southwest.

01:03I'm from New Mexico.

01:04My family still lives there.

01:05The Western is a very interesting genre to me.

01:08It's very much about the heroic myth of America,

01:11but it's also contending with the ugly truth of America.

01:15Every character is living in a different reality,

01:18and they all distrust each other completely.

01:20The powder cat just explodes into something that's so surprising.

01:24People are gonna be looking here now.

01:26It's one of those that you don't want an escape.

01:28You want to allow it to grip you

01:30and take you on the roller coaster.

01:31It really will.

01:32You felt dangerous to me in all the right ways.

01:35People will want to go into the theater

01:37and see in its full glory.

01:39It is one of the most fun things I've shot.

01:41Woohoo!

01:47Woohoo!

01:49Woohoo!

01:50Woohoo!
