Austin: The only improv we did have was between Mike and Connor at the adult bookstore. Meredith: Connor Ratliff is honestly one of the most gifted improvisers working today, and Mike was excited to have him on set. We structured the day so we could give ourselves a little bit of improv time, just to see what happened. You never know when something like that’s going to occur. Austin: We didn’t have enough. Meredith: We didn’t have enough time but we got about twenty minutes. Austin: We got something. Meredith: We did get something so we got to use it. It was that, “Don’t write that in your thing,” line. That was Connor and Mike just sort of having fun at the end of the day.

“They couldn’t have asked for better actors; all three of them were amazing. You’re talking about one of them who was in West Side Story and the other from The Crown. These are top actors and they’re young people. Young but they’re at the top of the game right now – and they have a nice chemistry.”

→ “Henry Butash On The Making Of The Atlantic City Story With Broadway Stars Mike Faist And Jessica Hecht

“I took a very loose approach to the film. I wanted there to be something spontaneous about it; something authentic and true to life. It just felt like if I forced them into one thing, it would be like the air got sucked out of the room. It would just feel stale and stilted. I didn’t want that; I wanted it to be very organic and alive. Mike Faist and Jessica Hecht – there was a lot of room and we had a lot of takes where we had just gone through the script and talked deeply about the characters and the story. But then, once we had that foundation, we had the freedom to then wander off in a really exciting way. We did a lot of takes where Mike and Jessica knew what the purpose of the scene was narratively. But then, they weren’t tied down to a specific line of dialogue or anything like that. They just acted off of each other and worked together. We did a lot of scenes where I would tell Mike and Jessica to just surprise me. They both consistently shocked me with the things they would think of spontaneously. That was the most exciting part! And a lot of times, it was those takes that ended up in the film. Just because they felt so organic, real and natural.”
