How Justin Theroux Became the Voice Inside Olivia Munn’s Head in ‘Violet’ (Video)
Justin Theroux is the bad voice inside of Olivia Munn’s head in Justine Bateman’s directorial debut “Violet,” and the filmmaker said there were a lot of logistics that went into making those scenes go seamlessly. In “Violet,” Munn plays an executive at a production company in Hollywood and has a negative voice inside her head, prompting her to realize that her life is built on fear-based decisions.“I had only written half of what the voice ends up saying, half to two-thirds, when we shot so we were reading those off camera, we had somebody doing that,” Bateman told TheWrap’s Beatrice Verhoeven during a virtual interview at the 2021 Toronto International Film Festival.
