“The Covenant” stars Jake Gyllenhaal and Dar Salim revealed how director Guy Ritchie’s unique process awakened them during filming.
The New Sides of Filmmaking
“The Covenant” has awakened new sides of Gyllenhaal and Salim’s craft, and it was all thanks to director Guy, who made the filming great on both stars, Collider reported.
During an interview, Salim stated that working with Guy initially frightened him because the director was known for being hands-on on set. However, Guy reminded him to trust the process, which awakened him to just throw everything away while trusting the people he was working with.
Gyllenhaal agreed with Salim and claimed both of them would later be awakened in the beauty of their craft, with Guy explaining the process to them.
