“She is phenomenal.” Colleen continued. “The humor that you see between her and Ryan online, she brings so much of that to the character and with the subject matter and the emotions of this book, it needs that comedic levity. And she does it so well.”
And, she added, Blake had the perfect onscreen counterpart in costar Brandon, who plays Lily’s love interest Atlas Corrigan.
“When I heard that Brandon was playing Atlas,” she explained, “I was like,’ Oh, my gosh, he’s gonna be so perfect. That kind of quiet, serious guy.’ And he brings that kindness and protectiveness to that role so well.”
She continued, “After watching the movie, and writing these roles, I feel like the casting is so spot on and everything I was hoping this movie would turn out to be.”
