![]() ![]() The scariest part about it was this dude is a bad person. WOLFHARD: Did you guys develop Kurt together? Was he a different kind of character when you first started? After about page 20, I was like, “What sort of movie is this? This is insane.“ KEERY: He’s represented at the same agency as I am, so I just read the script like anyone else. Sharing is inherently good, and by sharing I will help.“ ![]() His whole thing is, “I’m going to help and I’m going to share. KEERY: Every single person he interacts with is an opportunity for him to get famous. WOLFHARD: I was going to ask about that, because Kurt is the most disconnected character I’ve seen in a long time. That kind of paved the way for a character like Kurt to come along, because he’s this person who is so eager and confident, because he’s so disconnected from reality. KEERY: That’s a huge one, especially for Spree.
