![]() And the Butcher carried himself in a much more specific, mysterious way. They know that you’re about to die or they know you’re going to kill someone, so it’s all very subtle. I learned a lot about telling a story just with your eyes, because in horror, you don’t have to do much. I learned a lot on Paranormal Activity with Chris Landon he wrote Paranormal Activity. So the way he walks is just different, and the head tilt comes with the territory of a horror film. He was much stronger and more confident than Millie. The Butcher was so grounded, dark and mysterious, and he came from his chest. That’s easier sometimes than telling people who you are or trying to show who you are. I was totally like Millie - a dork in high school who didn’t fit in, and I appreciated that she just wanted to disappear. We talked about the center of gravity of each character, their posture and the physicality, because they’re so different. I’m so happy that you brought that up because that was something we did bring up early in the process. ![]() Did you make that choice pretty early on in the process? It was very Robert Patrick-esque in Terminator 2: Judgement Day. I know this sounds odd, but the way you tilted your head downward created so much of your butcher’s creepiness. Having him as our guiding force, he just let us go for it. He knows how to balance the horror and the comedy so well and when to play up either one. He just came with so many great ideas, and Chris Landon, our director, came from such a grounded place, especially for a movie with such heightened situations. The movie is just so good because he’s in it, and I know I did so much better because I was always inspired by him. And just to have that kind of immediate camaraderie and collaboration with someone who I’m a huge fan of, it blew me away. The first time we met was in dance rehearsal, and we were immediately all-in because we were both making a fool of ourselves. And then, Vince became attached and I couldn’t even believe it because the movie just went from being great to being unbelievable. ![]() It’s Vince Vaughn! And when I got the call from Chris Landon to do this movie, I thought it was a brilliant idea and I was so excited to be a part of it. He’s definitely one of my favorite actors ever. I had seen so many Vince Vaughn movies growing up and I was a huge fan. Did you do a double take when the body swap premise involving Vince presented itself? Acting in scenes with Detective Pikachu probably seems like less of a shock by comparison. ![]() I wish that I could travel back in time to a decade ago - when you were probably watching Vince Vaughn DVDs with your friends or family - just to inform you that you’d be making a body swap movie with him someday. We tried on like a thousand leather jackets and then suddenly this red one appeared. I can’t help but notice that there’s a red leather jacket on your chair. She also teases some potential golf-related projects. In a recent conversation with THR, Newton also looks back at her experiences on acclaimed TV series including Halt and Catch Fire and Big Little Lies. There are other things going on, and it just wasn’t possible for us to shoot that show safely at this time. “I’m sure everyone feels like that sometimes, but we’re in the middle of a pandemic. So I just looked at my ceiling and was like, ‘What is the universe doing to me?’” Newton shares. “When The Society was cancelled, I was so shocked because I was going to work in a week. Due to its large ensemble cast and the fast-rising cost of COVID safety protocols, Netflix had to make the tough call and cancel the YA mystery drama despite its strong performance. Newton is also opening up about the shocking “un-renewal” of her hit Netflix series, The Society, which was just four days away from filming season two.
