Emily opened up about the experience on the Smartless podcast.
“We had to wear these enormous suits, which I think would’ve been great if we had CGI’d them, but we wanted to do it in a tactile way,” she explained. “When you hear the word ‘tactile,’ you think that sounds nice and cozy. There was nothing cozy about these suits. It was like 85 pounds. It was so heavy.”
“The first time I put it on I started to cry, and [Tom] didn’t know what to do,” Emily added. “I was like, ‘Tom, I’m not sure how I’m going to get through this shoot,’ and just started to cry.”
His reaction was to the point and not safe for most workplaces: “He just stared at me for a long time, not knowing what to do, and he goes, ‘Come on, stop being such a p-ssy, OK?’”
She added that it made her laugh and helped her recalibrate to pull off the scenes.
