Causeway had its red carpet premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival, with all of the cast stopping by to discuss how proud they were to have the film debut at the festival, how emotionally moved they were to complete the project, and what it was like working together. We spoke with Jennifer Lawrence, Brian Tyree Henry, Diego Garcia, Elizabeth Sanders, and Linda Edmon. Lawrence said she had plans of taking time off, but when she saw this script, she knew she had to be a part of it. She adds that everyone who sees this movie will be touched in some way. Meanwhile, Henry spoke about the collaboration on set and how grateful he was to have a voice on set for this project he loves and have a sounding board to discuss the trauma they portray. Garcia said the main goal was to make sure he understood the emotional moments of the script while creating an atmosphere to tell this story, adding he was equally as excited to premiere at TIFF.
