A movie that Gore Verbinski is directing with Sam Rockwell starring? Oh my god.' Once she started reading, Temple couldn't put it down. The sun was fully up by the time I finished it. It was such a roller coaster of a script... you had no idea where it was going next."
"I was laughing a lot, then feeling the immense tragedy of it and getting really emotional. It's frightening at moments and then weirdly hopeful. The cast were unbelievable. We really wanted to help each other with moments and share ideas. And Sam Rockwell is a hero - I would definitely follow him to go and save our future again and again."
