“In the movie it has all those color interstitial things and we were like so we’re like, don’t do Brat green, you can’t do it.”

He added: “For Charli and for Lena, this is uncharted territory. This is a new unfamiliar process, and it is a group of strangers, mostly.

"So, they’re not only in an unfamiliar process with a group of strangers, but then being asked to do this extremely vulnerable thing, which is step in front of a camera and expose themselves. So the fact that they all showed up so generously and with such bravery really, I’m very grateful for.”
