I don’t wish bad things on these films. I wanted the film to be good. It’s not like I’m sitting at home saying, ‘I hope this sucks, I hope it goes really bad.’ I care about the people involved. There is a person at the top who only thinks about money and that is their prerogative. But for everyone else, everyone, I care that these movies are doing well.

Campbell also gave his opinion on the death of Dewey, a character in David Arquettein the film: “I thought it was tragic, and I generally don’t criticize the script for these projects.” Snow she was saddened by the narrative choice, which left her “disappointed”. “Dewey is such an incredible character, and I think we all fell in love with him and felt really sad about his death,” she confessed.
