When I came on board there was definitely the structure and the skeleton of the script that was in place and it’s a very interesting journey that she goes on.
What I really wanted to do was to bring a dark humor to it and using humor as a way to deflect the pain and suffering and I happened to be working with Tony McNamara at the time and Emma had just come off The Favourite with Tony and so he got to do a rewrite on it. And that’s when we really got to elevate it to this place where you see the two Emmas going head to head and that banter, and the way that they use their humor – the harshness of it was just delicious.
