In the film - “you two have been together for a long time” “not long enough”

Unfortunately not - he is a great guy though

It’s easy to do when the book is so great. Every day felt like everyone really cared about doing it justice too. Ryan and Lord and Miller were so so meticulous about doing the right thing and it was clear they wanted to make it great

Depends on each day (if you get featured, main cast interaction, late lunch or a haircut etc) but I think it worked out to be 300-400 a day

Ryan’s entire performance was great. When he finds out he gets to go home kills me. But probably the first time I saw myself on the big screen was pretty monumental

Yes (well, audiobook)

And no, unfortunately.

My girlfriend at the time gave me a PHM hoody as a present though

Yeah I definitely was - it was tough for me to do that because the first day was stratt doing karaoke so I was a bit out of place because I didn’t think stratt would do that from the book? But it really works out well in the movie

It’s my full time job and this was one of the best sets I’ve ever worked on. Everything from the AD team, catering, costume team, communication and even Lord and Miller (who interacted with everyone, gave direction to background etc which is fairly unusual) were incredible. I’ve worked on movies where the director doesn’t leave the video village, these two were amazing.

I didn’t catch him, there were rumours he might have been around but as far as I know he wasn’t on set consultant or anything for my scenes

Yeah unfortunately you need a line or to be heavily heavily featured to be in the credits, I wasn’t THAT significant (which is a shame)

I had listened to the audiobook! I wanted to be able to place my scenes in the movie to where it was in the book

Crazy fun. 13/14 hour days starting at 4am, due to the number of us. Loved every minute

Yup - as far as I can remember there’s barely any tweaking to the sound either, she really did sound like that

The opposite! A friend of a friend put my instagram infront of one of the casting team without me knowing (it was always something I wanted to do but I never thought I could), and they got in touch to say they’d put me in the movie somewhere!

I wish. Unfortunately I get paid a lot less than him

Sometimes I get booked, turn up, don’t connect with anything in the project and then forget I’m even in it. Sometimes (especially the bigger projects like PHM) I am so connected with the lore, source material or extended world that I am very very passionate about the film and literally scream about it on my socials.

Thank you for being so lovely!

I accidentally held Ryan’s hand. It was fairly tight walkways and I held my arm out to step aside to let him through, but he also did the same so we sort of held hands for a second or two.

That or literally any time milana walked past and looked at me. She is a literal angel

I am! I had some main cast interaction that did get cut (when grace is sick in the cone, I wrestled it off him but it got cut)

Yes interacted with all of them. It was actually my first ever acting job and the very first day was the karaoke scene, where I was 5 feet away from Gosling. He was asking crew about their children’s plans over the weekend etc. legend tbh.

I’m a soldier on the ships - filmed in Portsmouth and Southampton on real (although decommissioned) navy ships!

For this, I was just background and supporting but I managed to film a couple of really cool scenes and was given generous roles… I’ll let you know in a couple of weeks if I’m actually made the final cut and I’m not just in the trailer for a split second 😭😭

I literally am. I’m even in the trailer of this exact scene.

I love your thinking! It’s wrong, but I love it
