>”In my drafts, there’s a lot more Johnny/Surfer one-way flirtation,” reveals writer Eric Pearson. “It was all him, but it was endearing. And it’s such an interesting thing when you put the cuts together. There’s so much less of it. Perhaps that’s all you needed for her to be touched by his affection for her and how far he was going to go to save the planet.”
>”I remember the last version that I did, she went away and had her moment of, ‘I’m not right for this anymore’,” he continues. “And Johnny comes and talks to her. They did it in the sky in the final movie, but I remember always thinking it should be in Tahiti or something, where she’s just actually sitting on the surfboard, like a surfer. We talked about her planet as mostly being a water planet, and to have her be like, ‘This place reminds me of home.’ I mean, I might’ve just been trying to add on too many layers of connection to Earth or to give her more of an excuse to want to come in and save the day at the end.”
>”We talked about her a little bit like Spock,” he concludes. “To save everyone she loved, she’s locked into this emotionless state. She’s physically undefeatable, so let’s emotionally compromise her and give all the messages from her home planet and then contrast that with all the other people who’ve been crying out for mercy. Thank God for Julia Garner. Her scream of a million planets is awesome.”
