‘Don’t Look Up’ Cast Talk About Working Together in the Star Studded Netflix Film

A movie with a big ensemble cast always has everyone eagerly anticipating its
release. Just the idea of some of your favorite stars working together excites
you. Similarly, Don’t Look Up also had some of the biggest names in Hollywood
and has us excited. However, not all movies with an ensemble cast perform well,
so what was unique with Don’t Look Up?

A star-studded cast comes with its unique set of problems like there might be
ego clashes. But, Don’t Look Up
[https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/dont-look-up/] did not have such problems because
of a skilled director in Adam McKay at the helm. So, let us find out the cast’s
views on the multi-starrer film.


ADAM MCKAY ON THE CAST OF DON’T LOOK UP

Adam McKay has been a part of many successful movies like Vice, Anchorman, and
Step Brothers. And the director has also worked on ensemble cast movies like The
Big Short. Thus, he knows how to get the absolute best out of every actor.

“We can’t really do a movie that’s just grim and dark,” Adam said. ” We wanted
the film to be laugh-out-loud funny. And it was the combination of both that you
could just tell all these actors were hungry for a joyful way to process the
pothole-ridden road we were driving down 100 miles per hour for the past five
years.”

between the co-stars comes organically as they respect each other. “Working with
Leo was fantastic,” Jennifer praised Leonardo DiCaprio. “I have always been a
huge fan, and he is the perfect person to be able to tell a story like this.”

[data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==]

“You know I had always wanted to work with Jen as an actress,” Leonardo
complimented Jennifer. “Her ability to improvise and be in the moment at all
times was amazing to witness.” Even the director appreciated Jennifer as he
said: “She just has this wonderful hilarious anger and the character Kate
Dibiasky is driven by that.”


JONAH HILL AND MERYL STREEP WERE IN A DIFFERENT LEAGUE

Meryl Streep would intimidate anyone, and it was no different with the people on
the sets. Adam explains: “It was very fun to see when Meryl Streep walks on a
set everyone’s demeanor changes slightly.” Leo was grateful for the chance to
see Meryl Streep perform her scenes. But the combination of Jonah Hill and Meryl
Streep was “awe-inspiring” for the Oscar winner.

“Jonah was a major key to this movie,” Adam explained the actor’s impact. “I
knew if I had him I’d have someone in their throwing fastballs.” Other actors
and actress, like Cate Blanchett, Tyler Perry, and Rob Morgan, also shared
[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f5x6Za7tSqM&feature=youtu.be] their views on
the movie and its cast.
