Adriana Paz and Luis Gerardo Méndez join MovieWeb’s Joe Deckelmeier to discuss Netflix’s 'Animals,' directed by Ben Affleck. The pair break down Cecilia and Ramon’s place in the movie’s moral conflict, how Affleck’s rehearsal process helped reshape their characters, and the creative freedom they were given to change dialogue and scenes that didn’t feel authentic. Paz also explains what it was like rehearsing inside the actual house used for filming. Méndez also reveals that Affleck only needed one take for one of the movie’s most emotionally difficult scenes, and explains why Affleck’s confidence as a director helped build the film’s tension. The pair also address whether Netflix ever pushed the production to cater to distracted viewers. 'Animals' premieres on Netflix October 9.
