Ren explains the unique acting challenges Latency posed, as the human cast is solely made up of her and Sasha Luss. She details how such an intimate on-screen crew helps elevate the film’s themes of solitude and mental health. To that point, the actress also explains the parallels the role had with the work she’s done as a mental health activist, and dives into acting opposite CGI.
She also tells the story of how director James Croke originally wanted her to shave her head for the role, and recalls her time on Dancing with the Stars.
