The duo said: ‘He liked the scripts, and he agreed to do it, but the big thing that he wanted us to work with him on, was the beginning of the movie in act one, he’s at a pretty low place, and the character that we had written was this really narcissistic dad who wasn’t around that much, and he said guys I’m not this dad, I’m there for my kids, and I’m just not that much of a narcissist.
‘So it was like finding the balance between having a character who has an arc from narcissist to selfless while also having him feel comfortable and having it feel, you know, real and having a character you could go for a ride with.’
