"[On ADR] Well, I think it's an easy trap to fall into thinking that everything can be fixed. You can never really recapture that live performance that the actor gave on the day. And that's what we're trying to preserve - their performance."

If you haven't heard this episode yet, it is chock full of super interesting stories directly from the set 🤓👌
