Ethan told Collider: “Thank God, we have a great relationship. You know, what Maya (the actress’ daughter) said about the director, that’s exactly what Scott Derrickson is saying. It was a really great experience to make my first scary movie with him.” He made a movie called “Sinister” and he’s just a real filmmaker.
“I love his way of thinking about movies and storytelling. And as I get older, I really enjoy working in different genres as an actor. It shapes (and) changes who I am as an actor. There’s a certain geometry to what makes a great romantic comedy, what makes a great art movie, what makes a great horror movie, what makes a great Western. , Scott is great at that. He wants me to be in ‘Black Phone 2,’ and I’m going to do it.”
