Dynevors impressive mini-heist needed to be real becauseInheritancewas shot guerrilla-style on an iPhone.
It was very scary, the actress tellsEntertainment Weekly.
Its not even that she cant help herself.
She can help herself, so she helps herself to the sunglasses, Burger explains.
Burger instructed Dynevor on how to walk in and walk out with the new frames.
Luckily, she pulled off the low-key heist without incident.
(And don’t worry: the sunglasses were returned after the scene was shot.)
There was a safety net that came with the camera being there because it felt like this isnt real.
Were shooting something, she says.
We only had one take to get it right.
Id have to be very cognizant of whether the camera was getting it.
You dont want to have to do that twice.
Getting used to the bare-bones shoot took time, but the nerve-racking encounters started on day one.
One of her first scenes involved drinking tequila and smoking cigarettes on the streets of New York City.
The alcohol wasnt real, but the impact it had on people around her certainly was.
At one point, a mother pulled her two children away from her.
When the police eventually approached her because of her drunken behavior, Dynevor decided not to break character.
The filming style required Dynevor to get ready at her hotel and then be in character throughout the day.
Stay in the characters makeup, hair, and costumes the whole time.
Having that distance made shooting dangerous chase scenes in foreign countries less daunting.
Inheritancepremieres on Jan. 24.
