Nick Leisure (director) and Brian Austin Green (Mr. Dunbar) talk about the hit thriller Last The Night. Both spoke to us exclusively about what it was like making the movie during COVID and why incorporating that into the storyline was pivotal. Leisure said that teachers are mentors and people we look up to, but they are also humans -- he wanted to explore what would happen if a teacher hit his breaking point during the pandemic and went to the next level. (Hitting our breaking points during the pandemic is something we probably all could relate to.) Meanwhile, Green talks about the massive shift in roles for him, adding that this was a departure from the typical "good guy" he has played in the past, and the part allowed him to explore his tools as an actor. (Green is phenomenal in this role). The duo worked seamlessly in this film, showcasing a true edge-of-your-seat thriller. Leisure and Green want everyone to relate to the film but also have fun enjoying the chaos that ensues.
