You have no idea the gift that you’ve just given us with your responsiveness, by being so connected to every little nuance in this. I will never forget this screening,” Anne told the audience after the film was done, via Variety. She continued, reflecting on her character’s arc: “For some reason, we talk about coming-of-age stories as being something that happens to you in the earliest part of your life, and I don’t know about you, but I feel like I keep blooming.” Meanwhile, Nicholas focused on his easy connection to Anne when they met during auditions. “These rooms can be extremely intimidating and unnatural, but there was something almost spiritual that happened there, whereby I felt this immediate connection to Annie,” he recalled. “We had a simpatico, a shared sense of humor. It was just very easy. I remember leaving that room thinking, ‘Regardless of what happens with this, I am so proud of this special thing that happened there.’ They gave me a call the next day: ‘We want you to be a part of this movie.’” The actors were joined by costars Reid Scott and Ella Rubin. Director Michael Showalter and producers Jordana Mollick and Cathy Schulman were also in attendance. We’ve got pics of them in the gallery!
