it’s possible for you to watch the conversation in the video above or read the full transcript below.
A man is abducted into an alternate version of his life. Amid the mind-bending landscape of lives he could’ve lived, he embarks on a harrowing journey to get back to his true family and save them from a most terrifying foe: himself.
COLLIDER: Ive got to start with the most important thing.
Did you know that they have made aLabyrinthpinball machine, and have you played it?
JENNIFER CONNELLY: I did not know.
No, I haven’t, but that sounds awesome.
David Bowie’s all over it, but you really need to check it out just on principle.
CONNELLY: I’d love to.
I’ll look it up.
You could experience wonder and amazement, or who the hell knows?
I think the box is big enough to do all this.

It’s still a maybe.
It’s a hardmaybe.
I think that’s actually very honest.

It would be a maybe for me, as well.
CONNELLY: Yeah, it’s a hard maybe.
I don’t know.

Thats five of us, plus Wallace, to think about frame of mind.
She’s a pretty fearful doggy.
I’m not sure.
CONNELLY: For me, it was really fun.
I like the different chapters of it.
Then also what happens when he comes back and she’s confronted with that.
I thought that was a really interesting thing to have to try and imagine someone reckoning with and reconciling.
In terms of playing the different versions of the character, for me, it was really fun.
So it was just sort of fun, honestly, for me, that process.
CONNELLY: I think it has a lot going on in a really fun way.
I think it was a smart way to use the idea of a multiverse in this show.
I feel like I haven’t seen this use of that idea before.
But they’re not going to these far-off places.
I absolutely believe that.
Thats what Blake wants the audience to feel.
CONNELLY: I absolutely believe that.
I thinkheknows that, but I don’t think that she knows that.
It could just be a five-minute difference.
CONNELLY: That’s true.
That’s what’s great about it is that you’re able to play those mind games.
Yeah, who knows?
We didn’t talk about it because literally all we do is kind of take one step.
So, we’ll have to see.
CONNELLY: No, weirdly.
I didn’t have that conversation with him.
For better or worse, whatever that says about me.
No, we didn’t have that conversation.
I love that because it’s little subtle sci-fi.
Did you end up borrowing any of those bills?
CONNELLY: [Laughs] I didn’t.
They were really great.
But no, I didn’t.
CONNELLY: I don’t know.
I don’t have enough experience making shows.
We started filming in September and I think we finished in, like, April.
And in this case, it was a really happy experience making the show.
Blake isgreatto work with.
It felt like in him, we had a real throughline.
So, I really enjoyed that about the show.
