There's more than meets the eye to Ian McKellen and Helen Mirren's roles in the thriller 'The Good Liar.'
Helen Mirren and Ian McKellen have worked together before, but Bill Condon’s thriller “The Good Liar” marks their first time co-starring in a movie.The scene, shot on a soundstage, was done toward the end of production and Mirren had only a few takes to get Betty’s speech right with little rehearsal or preparation. Condon ended up using her first attempt.
Originally, Condon included more clues about Betty’s deception leading up to that revelation. But the director, who peppered references to World War II throughout the story to hint at what was to come and included small hints throughout Betty’s house, wanted the audience to find their way to the truth as Roy does.
For Mirren, the shift of power from the male perpetrator to the female accuser hit home. It’s a cathartic moment for the character but also for the actress and her viewers. Feeling powerless is something Mirren says she knows well, and she was able to tap into that sense of wanting to right a wrong when playing out the scene.
