00:00 We filmed where the movie is actually set, which is rare in Muskoka, Canada.
00:04 And it's beautiful lake country, lots of little islands.
00:06 And sometimes it takes you longer to drive around the lake to get to a location
00:11 than to just simply jet ski across the lake.
00:13 So there was a few moments where we got to jet ski to work.
00:16 I did spend every summer in Muskoka growing up.
00:22 That is very true to my life.
00:23 I went to summer camp on an island up there.
00:25 Yeah, I spent every child of my summer, at least part of it,
00:29 was in Muskoka.
00:30 So it's a very fond, nostalgic place for me.
00:32 And it kind of helped me come up with this sort of nostalgic,
00:36 you know, throwback story in my own mind.
00:38 And it's beautiful.
00:39 I was also like, why hasn't anyone really showcased Muskoka for Muskoka before?
00:43 I think they've used, like, cheated it for other places in the world.
00:46 But I was excited to just showcase it to the world.
00:49 Just being a kid in Canada is like truly the greatest thing.
00:52 And in a film, you can feel Canadian, like, kids.
00:57 It's just like, you can feel it.
00:59 And it's got a little bit of grit to it.
01:01 But yeah, I had a deep connection to lake life.
01:04 I hate, I can't go near the ocean.
01:06 I have a boat. Her name's Bobby Lee.
01:09 That was a big thing.
01:10 Like, when I was auditioning, I sent, like, me doing, like, a boat tour to, like, the casting and, like, production.
01:18 Because I have, like, a little crabby boat as well.
01:20 And so did Elliot.
01:21 So I felt that that was a deep connection between us.
01:24 And also no boating license.
01:26 Me and Lakes, we don't go too far back.
01:27 Sure.
01:28 I definitely, like, grew up.
01:30 Yeah, yeah.
01:31 I mean, we were still, like, feeling each other out, you know, a few more dates and maybe we can, like, go somewhere.
01:36 I grew up, actually, like, in cities.
01:38 So, like, my dad used to always try to, like, get us out the city.
01:41 So we had an RV growing up.
01:43 So I used to go camping a lot.
01:44 So it was really nice and refreshing to, like, touch dirt again.
01:47 However, a lake is not the same as dirt.
01:50 And yeah, we just, we got to keep talking, bro, bro.
01:55 We had an incredible time together on "The Fallout."
01:58 And then when I was writing this, I knew after we cast Maisie, I knew that Maisie and Maddie had been good friends since childhood.
02:06 And so I called Maddie up and was like, "Do you want to come be in this movie and play Maisie's best friend?"
02:12 Yeah.
02:12 Which is, like, we were lucky to have that.
02:13 I don't even got to act at that point.
02:15 This is our first time working together.
02:17 Yeah.
02:17 I think we've always watched each other work or been fans or admirers of each other.
02:22 But to actually, I was actually really nervous because, you know, when you're, like, so comfortable with someone that needs to be professional, I was worried.
02:28 We actually didn't have any problems at that.
02:30 No, it didn't happen at all.
02:31 I was definitely nervous as well.
02:33 But I think, honestly, like, on screen, there's just, like, an added, like, weight to it where you can truly feel that we've known each other for a long time.
02:40 And I just, I love what that feels like on camera.
02:43 But yeah, I was definitely, but we didn't have to be super serious together.
02:47 I think that would have been.
02:48 Like, if we had to, like, cry together, like, do something like that.
02:50 That would be insane.
02:51 Maybe that would have been a little harder.
02:53 But I think because we were being so playful, it was.
02:55 Especially, I feel like, all of the Lake stuff.
02:58 Yeah.
02:58 Especially, like, Carissa and I screaming a lot in the boat while.
03:03 That was all genuine.
03:04 Like, that was not fake.
03:06 That was all very real reactions.
03:08 I feel like the characters just, like, lived within us.
03:10 Yeah, for sure.
03:11 We were able to go home and, like, be ourselves, but still have that part of us.
03:15 As you get more success, what is a splurge that you allow yourself?
03:19 Or a splurge that is still on the bucket list?
03:22 Some type of vacation.
03:23 I mean, this is pretty far down the line, I would assume.
03:26 But, like, some type of, like, vacation home of some sort.
03:29 Like, a little getaway situation.
03:31 That would be my dream splurge.
03:33 I was thinking more, like, this is so on-brand.
03:36 Just, like, health and wellness.
03:37 Like, saunas, cold plunges.
03:39 Like, I want them all in my house.
03:41 Yeah, I think to, like, fully renovate my dream house is, like, the biggest splurge
03:45 that I will indulge in in life at some point.
03:48 Mine is...
03:49 Well, I have a few.
03:50 The first one is to just build a bunch of homeless shelters.
03:54 That would be, like, the biggest splurge.
03:55 Like, I feel like just, I don't know, just to treat other people, that would be a huge
03:59 splurge for me.
04:00 And the second would be to buy every single beignet and every single pot of gumbo I could
04:06 get my hands on.
04:06 Mm.
