Their forbidden love will trigger the dominoes that will draw in Mukul (Wade Allain-Marcus), Ben\u2019s best friend, who owes him a life debt; Terrence (Justin Chatwin), Mary\u2019s would-be protector-turned- stalker; Wayne (Travis Fimmel), an Aussie hit man with an open mind and a code of ethics; and Wayne\u2019s free-spirited girlfriend, Barbie (Emmanuelle Chriqui).

DIRECTOR\u2019S Q&A WITH COLLIN SCHIFFLI<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Q) How did you become attached to the film?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My first feature, Animals, premiered at the SXSW Film Festival and the lead actor, David Dastmalchian, had introduced me to a writing duo that he was working with on Marvel\u2019s Ant-Man. This pair was Andrew Barrer and Gabe Ferrari. Lucky for me, they liked my movie and were excited to discuss Gunfight. I jumped at the chance to direct it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Q) Where was the inspiration for the animation at the beginning of the film?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We had reached a point in the editing phase where we felt the need to elaborate on character backstories, which in earlier drafts of the script had been present. We wanted to revisit this in a unique way. My favorite aspect of this film is that it leans into so many familiar \u201ccinematic movie tropes\u201d in a very tongue-in-cheek manner \u2013 narration, split screen, freeze-frames, character title cards\u2026why not add animation? It was the icing on the cake for our self-aware love letter to cinema.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Q) What did cinematographer Magdalena Gorka bring to the stylized look of the film?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I really wanted this film to feel cinematic and stylized, but also intimate and personal. Much of that had to be accomplished via the cinematography. Magdalena was able to walk that line the entire movie. It feels very tangible and visceral, and yet it also looks like a hyper-real reality. She\u2019s masterful with her use of color and light to balance that tricky tone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Q) Because of how specific the narration is to driving the story, did you talk much with cowriters Andrew Barrer and Gabriel Ferrari either before or during the making of the film?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This story captures the voice of Andrew and Gabe on many levels, and I was eager and fortunate enough to collaborate with them every step of the way, especially in regards to the playful narration. I even had them on set every day to brainstorm on the fly. If something wasn\u2019t working with the material, the actors and I could pop right over to them and make adjustments. They knew their script and characters so well they would literally have a dozen alternate lines ready to go.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Andrew and Gabe\u2019s writing has a lyrical rhythm and very specific wit to it. A day comes to mind when we had news anchors spouting out headlines in a scene. Andrew and Gabe would come up with outlandish, yet thematically poignant, lines to feed to the <\/em>anchors at a moment\u2019s notice \u2013 one after another after another. It hit me that the material had been marinating in their weird minds far longer than I could even fathom, and gave me an endless toolbox to choose from daily. This was huge for keeping the tone of this film consistent<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Q) How important was the casting of Diego Boneta and Alexandra Daddario in the lead roles?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The two leads are the foundation of this love story. If the chemistry between these characters did not work, the movie would fall flat. On top of that, I did not want it to seem like they were just young, star-crossed lovers who had not experienced life. We wanted actors that could bring a worldly, mature view to the characters. Diego and Alex encompassed those sophisticated traits and were able to add many layers to Ben and Mary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Q) What was the vibe on set while making the film with the entire ensemble cast besides Diego and Alexandra, with supporting roles from the likes of Travis Fimmel, Emmanuelle Chriqui, and Justin Chatwin?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The world of Gunfight is so playful and colorful, it was crucial to cast the roles with equally colorful and dynamic actors. I cannot express enough how much fun we all had letting each other experiment, improvise and explore bold choices. We pushed ourselves to be larger than life. It was like being on the playground with all the cool kids. I never knew what they were going to do. Travis Fimmel was like a wild animal that I would unleash, knowing that I was about to capture lightning in a bottle and\/or destroy our entire set. Yet it was always in service of the story. I was jumping for joy when, to everyone\u2019s surprise, he kissed Diego on the lips in a take \u2013 something that<\/p>\n\n\n\n

was not scripted, but I couldn\u2019t have asked for a better improvisation. Emmanuelle would make Travis melt with nearly every line she delivered, which was beautiful to see considering how commanding Fimmel\u2019s presence was. Justin Chatwin had the entire crew crowding around the monitors far too often with his character\u2019s epic meltdown <\/em>moments that never get old to watch. I had plenty to work with in the edit.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Q) What do you think about the references to \u201cmodern-day Romeo and Juliet<\/em>,\u201d since the film does have a similar feel but definitely goes down its own path?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019ve always enjoyed stories about young love, and the complications that come with it. Romeo and Juliet is so iconic that there was something comforting about allowing our film to rest on the shoulders of such a familiar story, knowing that we could break all the rules and still have that solid foundation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Q) Who would you identify as the core audience for the film?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This film is for anyone that wants to experience (or re-experience) that rush of adrenaline that comes with young love! Particularly, but not limited to, young adults, teens, and 20-somethings that are looking for that jolt of frenetic and edgy eye candy! And cinema lovers of all ages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

DIEGO BONETA is quickly emerging as one of Hollywood\u2019s brightest young talents, not only excelling in Hollywood, but similarly with Spanish audiences.
