Ortega’s ridley is definitely the film’s moral core and audience’s avatar, and the actor Recalled Enduring Comedic Torture to Defend the Unicorn. “There’s so many moments paul was really playful [on set] That way, [and would] Add little things.

I was supposed to be, like, on the verge of tears. It was brutal. It was talking to brick wall after brick wall after brick wall.

[He] Made the energy lighter, and i think if I didn’t get to have [comedic fun]- I had planty of fun on this [finding] That balance and not bearing into the territory that’s not yours, and make sure that everybody is in every right place. And it was a little bit hard with paul [to not break]But he’s just so support and just incredible to work with. “
