Finn Wolfhard (FinnSkata) on the ambiguous sexualities of his Goldfinch and ItMovie characters

so I would shoot on my days off, which was super tiring and stressful, but really rewarding at the same time. Basically, I shotIn addition to mastering a Russian accent, you were also juggling a sense of humor and an altered state from all the drugs and alcohol Boris consumed. How did you pull these other attributes off since the accent was already hard enough?

Boris’ behavior was a byproduct of his mother’s death and his physically abusive father. How deep did you go into the psychology of someone who’s suffered as much as Boris has? So, Boris had a girlfriend in the book, but it’s really hard to get 800 pages onto a movie screen and include everything. I didn’t really know, which I think helped it even more that he was ambiguous. I didn’t even know what was happening or what kinds of things he feels for different people. At the same time, it’s a deep brotherly love; he’s never connected with someone like this before and neither has Theo. There’s a deep love there as well.

I think John pulled me aside and said, “This is a moment where he doesn’t remember that he showed you.” Obviously, later in the movie, Boris says that Theo showed him when he was blackout drunk. Boris remembers, but Theo doesn’t. So, when Theo goes down and tries to get the painting, Boris turns around and gives that look. The audience kind of knows, but Theo still doesn’t know at all. He’s not even really suspicious of it.

So, that’s what’s insane. They did de-age us with CGI, which is already crazy, but I didn’t do any scenes where they put dots on me. They must have done it with no dots. Barbara Muschietti, who’s Andy’s amazing sister and main producer, was describing how they basically softened the face. They soften your features until you look the way you did. I thought that was interesting, and it looked pretty cool.
