Whether that’s activism or not, that just is what makes sense to me.

“I don’t know I’m really the type of actor that’s like, ‘I need to do this film because it has this particular message,’“ she added. “I just find the characters interesting, the worlds interesting, and it’s something that I want to explore.”While Lanthimos and Stone’s two previous efforts together enjoyed mainstream commercial as well as critical success,Reviews have been largely favourable, but many have noted that the film will be too subversive for some viewers, and the film was booed by several critics at one press screening attended byalumnus, in Willem Dafoe.

Stone described the atmosphere on set as comparable to a theatre company, with the actors and director having “built-in trust with each other.”“I just have extreme comfort, I feel like I can do anything with him,” she said, of Lanthimos.
