[Music] what advice would you give people walking away for with i mean no i'm watching this film have a whiskey beforehand good advice you're gonna need it drink responsibly oh hey captain square thanks anyway yeah to calm the nerves right you'll be on the edge of your seat in this jaw dropping event right absolutely and don't bring popcorn don't bring popcorn yeah everyone will hate you right yes and you'll be loathed by the rest of the audience no talking no snacks right no enough snacks yeah this is your rule in general in general yeah yeah all right kill next okay this is for you um emily blunt and the question on everyone's minds who would survive longest in the in the quiet apocalypse mary poppins rita have you seen any of my films it's pronounced protestant a reason for tasking an enormous successful movement i love that character yeah keep going uh or uh emily charlton from the devil wears bad i saw that um i feel like well rita fratewski would do very well with that big helicopter blade she'd bludgeon a few creatures so she'd do it [Music] mary poppins is magical so she'd probably get away out of it or she'd kill one of them with an umbrella also handy and what about emily charlton from the double west brother you haven't seen that i did see that one yeah um she wouldn't do well uh she would not do well i don't think why hmm because she's loud and obnoxious so i think she'll do well and she has high heels and that wouldn't that wouldn't fare well so millie what was the reaction like from the deaf community for the first film i think the deaf community is very happy with it because well we have a deaf coach on set uh to make sure that we were all signing uh and articulating clearly and i think that was a reason that they were very happy about it i hope they're happy with what we have to offer who is better at signing me or john i thank you emily yeah do you remember what you called me on set though baby signer you said i was like a baby signing i did i did but you still signed so cute that's my favorite she used to do that to me all the time whenever i'd sign she'll be like oh it's so cute is this miss baby no cute oh so for youtube gillian and diamond you're very new to this story what did you do um to get to know your characters you grew me absolutely nothing [Laughter] i ventured into the story very uh you know yeah it was an adventure it was uh um an exciting idea of going on to a film which uh stories i had no idea um you know it was a leap of faith it was a total leap of faith and uh it was the whole all the faith was on the uh based on the first film the success of the first film and obviously you know the director john and um yeah that was where is he where is he yeah where's john yeah where's john yeah go on kill um how did you get into character killian well i i spent a lot of time not not shaving um or showering which was gross no i did shower come on that's all very fragrant always um well we talked to lars uh john and i about i guess the back story of of emmett um a lot of which is you know you don't see on screen but was kind of pertinent to this story and the fact that there would have been a relationship between emmett's family and the abbots and that that would have informed obviously the relationship when they meet again but the fact that he is a completely different completely different character or like unrecognizable physically and sort of psychologically because of because of the result of trauma and loss and everything um so we spent a lot of time talking and picking hats okay for emily and milly how was this set different from the first film uh and how is john different as a director saying that he's not in the film uh uh as much as the last time john lost his mind on this film so he was he so he was altered no kidding he was um how is john different i think because the film is bigger and more ambitious and the world expands um really elaborate big action set pieces i think it was much more beneficial for us to have him behind the camera just because of what he had to orchestrate and conduct and his attention to detail could just really fly with this one so i think that i realized was it was almost more intimate working with him before because i was often in the scenes with him and this time he was very much sort of running it you know conducting it um and the other difference is i guess if the first one the energy of the first one you know it was similar to this one in many ways even though it felt more intimate it was one set one location so it was very intimate it was very insular um and and and you know we do expand there's like huge new locations and you know the world is just a much bigger and more daunting and more heightened place for this family to now have to survive so i do think it has the kind of muscularity and tension of the first one but it's just bigger you know i agree i think that um it's the the difference uh between the locations of the first and second one it also had so much to do with the emotional intensity how much action it was so much more physical yeah and you saw that in this one and now it's a family without a home out on a journey and you're just waiting to see sort of what's next uh um the fears that they face they're monsters also they're changing relationships within the family and john as a director i just felt like i mean i felt the same way you feel emily i felt that it wasn't a big change because we already had been working together from a quiet place i knew what he needed from us i and we know how to communicate with each other very well so that part was already there yeah let me ask you do you think that uh are you going off script right now oh i i guess i was gonna come on bring it up bring it bring it i just wanted yes if the idea of making you know certainly working with your husband and certainly making a film that originally kind of like uh killen said when we were doing our interviews the origin of filmmaking is silent and was it so much more challenging for you to uh to be in a film in which very you know it's not dialogue driven or more emotional driven body language completely driven i mean i think honestly for me when i watch films the moments that i find lasting and most impactful is almost the space between all the dialogue anyway i find that i'm more arrested by less in a scene and it's not to do with verbal gymnastics it's often to do with space between people anyway and that's what i love to watch so for me as long as the stakes are just through the roof which they are in the first they were in the first film they certainly are in this film i could watch people stare and look at each other and try and survive in silence till the sky goes dark john was very keen on there's not that much dialogue obviously but he was very keen on if we wanted to cut it stuff yeah like just do it you know non-verbally yes which was great freedom and very exciting for us to do particularly in those big scenes you know to try and communicate this even when they could really just about whisper to try and do it without it yeah there's so much to play you know there's just so much at stake there's so much to play so i think the dialogue that's what i mean i feel like when you're with less dialogue you're so much more compelled to do do so much more to convey the the emotion rather than not just simply say how are you feeling yeah for sure it's true do you miss your beard that's not the question yeah well like when you shaved it were you did you feel a bit naked no do you know what's funny millie what was this sign that you you had from me remember it had something cold old guy with beard your side your sign name is this gilliam because of your beard that's the sign for beard so we gave you the sea with a beard so that's that's a little like a little hairy scene a little hairy little hairy seed yeah well it was it was a um it was do i miss it no and i remember don't you remember that they had to make like a fake they had to make this very expensive fake yes out of a squirrel which which we never used in the end it was sort of lying around in quite a disturbing way ominously now i have a proper question for you if you had to choose which post-apocalyptic world you'd rather live in would it be the one featured in quiet place too would it be 28 days oh man i mean i i think um i think i'm going to answer this in a serious way because it's the only way to do it i think that there's obviously some sort of thematic overlap between those two movies i think they're very very different the thing about this movie though is my character again these are spoilers but the character is in a state of grief you know because he's because he's lost everything and you know he's lost his family the the the the the character in in 28 days later i think had a lot of hope do you know what i mean even though i can't really remember it because it's almost 20 years ago that's what i i seem to remember but but again i think um the the you know the two what was the question again which which world do you think you'd fare better in would you prefer to live in world with hope yeah i mean the zombies work i guess seem to be easier to the creatures are rough you can't get them in this yeah yeah they're rough that's why we need her i know she's like she's the eye here she's the weapon i think if i had her in 28 days later as a buddy then maybe you know 28 days later it would have been a shorter movie [Laughter] i've never seen 28 days later i'm so sorry now i have no idea okay okay i'm not the only one okay is this for everyone did you see any more any scary movies before you prepared for this role did you watch other movies oh specifically before starting this one no no because i i i thought the the uh well the horror in this one is quite different it's quite uh very fashionably different than uh you know the other scary film like shining like you know yeah what about you well i remember um what was our brilliant brilliant talented production designer called oh wow gosh what was his name so he designed uh a lot of the comb brothers right so john had told me to watch a movie i'd seen before but not for a few years no country for old men yeah of course which bears no um sort of narrative or thematic uh similarities with this movie but sort of in the look of the movie yeah and the sort of atmosphere the atmosphere and the the way it was going to be lit and then yeah and the in the style of how he wanted to shoot it and it's a masterpiece of a movie beautiful so i remember watching that actually when it comes to dialogue and music yeah sure yeah yeah and i remember re-watching it and just absolutely adoring and i think it's one of john's feelings yeah for sure yeah so so that was that was when i watched again um did you see jaws well i mean i've seen george jaws is a big influence so i i i watch no country again and i watch jaws again but just because it's a pleasurable experience for me to watch jaws because i love it so much have you you've seen jaws right really no no no you've got to watch this you thank you so much uh enjoy quiet place part two and please get your tickets on fandango yes two two just like that you
