Plot details on the film aren’t available just yet, but it is being reported that the film will be somewhat of an ensemble drama piece.
The film, which will be directed by the duo of Celine Held and Logan George, is produced by M. MORE: The Addams Family 2 to Release in Theaters and On Demand Simultaneously I know it's an indie film, and there's not that much time, but I believe you guys had some amount of rehearsal before.Dylan O’Brien and Eliza Scanlen are in talks to star in the upcoming film Vanishings, according to a report from Discussing Film. So, I was pleasantly surprised when I met the real Austin. That was the first day I met Austin, actually, and he pretty much stayed in character the whole day. Ben just goes on this rant about chickens pooping, and I can't believe that she's gonna marry this person and spend the rest of her life with them. I remember shooting that scene with Austin of Jem and Ben on the swings. I think that was honestly the comic relief of the whole film. What was that dynamic like for you? I love that scene where Jem's parents are like, "You're gonna marry into the pastor's family!" And you're like, "I don't know him."Įliza Scanlen: Oh, my God. On the other hand, we have poor Ben Taylor, and Austin Abrams just playing him like the saddest boy alive. He feels very unheard by his church, and especially his dad, so I think they see possibility in each other, and they don't feel judged by each other. I think Jem's never had this deep connection with anyone before, and I don't think Owen has either.
They find a friend in each other, and they're able to have candid conversations about God with each other that are direct. They're both questioning their faith, and they both feel somewhat like an outsider as a result of questioning their faith. The Starling Girl really focuses on Jem's perspective and her desires, so what is it that you think draws Jem to Owen? What does she see in him that she's not getting elsewhere?Įliza Scanlen: Yeah, I think Owen represents possibility for Jem. We went over it together, and I actually find it really helpful having accents to get into a character. I love learning a new accent, and I have an amazing dialect coach Victoria. What is your approach to different accents?Įliza Scanlen: My approach is: fail, fail, fail until it kind of gets better. Speaking of learning lines, you have done many a role without your own accent. It's really fun to learn something physical for a role, other than learning lines and stuff. I was just practicing in my apartment every night before the following day, and I loved it. It was two Saturdays that we learned it, I'm pretty sure. One of the girls in the dance troupe actually was the choreographer for the dance, and she was incredible. I'm not a dancer, so I had to practice that and work at it. As she gets into this relationship with Owen and has a sexual awakening, her dance moves become more expressive and sensual. It's such a visual way to represent someone's devotion to God, and I think it really was an interesting way to signpost Jem's self-discovery. I think it was such a genius storytelling tool. And I am the same I loved the dancing part of the film. What was it like for you to connect to her through dance, and how did you learn the dance?Įliza Scanlen: Hmm, that's a really good question. Screen Rant: I really love how the worship dance is used to help tell Jem's story and is a reflection of her faith in herself.
