Director Gavin O'Connor discusses his latest film The Accountant, which stars Ben Affleck and Anna Kendrick. While chatting about the project, Gavin says the story felt unlike anything he'd read before. He talks about the lead actors in the film, saying that he wanted Anna on board because he knew she'd approach her character "through a window rather than a door" and bring "humor and comedy to the role." He touches on her dynamic phrasing and how in tune with her body she is while acting scene after scene. Gavin explores Ben's character, Chris, and adds that the film's final scene holds crucial information to the story.
