“I’ve never done a movie like this before, where you’re in front of a blue screen and you have to react to an explosion that’s not actually happening”.
“Someone on set just shouts ‘explosion!’ and you need to act. That, for me, was totally psychotic. I don’t know if the result was good! I hope I did a good job”, she commented.

Dakota, however, added that she has full confidence in director S.J. Clarkson’s work: “She works very hard, and is very attentive to every aspect of a film. I haven’t seen her falter at anything since we started.”
