Jodie Comer on ‘The Last Duel’ and Ridley Scott’s Sensitive and Efficient Set - Hollywood Reporter

There’s obviously a substantial amount of money, but you realize when you’re working with someone like Ridley and you have that many cameras, you are really afforded that luxury.

So I know we were all really, really grateful for that.”.

“Even when I’ve heard the audience’s view for this, someone said, ‘Do you think she was telling the truth?’ And I was like, ‘What!?’ What did she have to gain by speaking out in the way that she did.

“Honest to God, that job was a really, really magical job, and I would love to get back on set with all those guys in Boston in a hot summer with the leather pants,” Comer shares.

That’s a really good question?

So they just kind of wrapped their arms around me in that way, and I just felt like I was meant to be there.

We had a ton of fun on Killing Eve, and when we found out that we’d be in this together, we were just like, “Ahh!” We feel like we’re stuck with each other now, which neither of us is complaining about.

So we have a really good rapport and we have a ton of fun.

(Comer emphasizes.) Yes, I’ve spoken so highly about the way Ridley works generally, but especially for moments like this which are intense, emotional, physical and violent.

I think we did Marguerite’s perspective first, and I think we did two takes of each perspective.

We started it in the morning, and I honestly think we were off it before lunch, which is unheard of.

There’s obviously a substantial amount of money, but you realize when you’re working with someone like Ridley and you have that many cameras, you are really afforded that luxury.

So I know we were all really, really grateful for that.

Also, that setup of five cameras, it just forces everybody to be present because everybody is on camera?

I think the original take was, like, nine minutes long.

Even when I’ve heard the audience’s view for this, someone said, “Do you think she was telling the truth?” And I was like, “What!?” What did she have to gain by speaking out in the way that she did.

Do you think her friend Marie (Tallulah Haddon) was bribed by Pierre (Affleck).

I don’t think so.

I think her friend was probably as terrified as she was.

I think her friend may have experienced something similar in her own life, but that was her way of dealing with it?

Honest to God, that job was a really, really magical job, and I would love to get back on set with all those guys in Boston in a hot summer with the leather pants!
