The upcoming feature stars Dakota Johnson and Sean Penn.
The Big Picture It sounds like a pretty basic plot - a cab driver picks up a client from John F. Kennedy Airport in Queens, NY, and takes them to Manhattan. To most, this sounds like a humdrum event in which two people sit silently for around an hour with a cash exchange happening before the rider pops out of the car and both people carry on with their lives.
“I feel like success in this industry is a moving target,” Hall, who created Netflix’s series I Am Not Okay with This says, “It’s not a perfect science, so you kind of have to trust yourself and trust that the partners will arrive. It wasn’t necessarily a checklist, it’s more of a leap of faith.” Luckily, she had some breaks along the way as the director reveals, “The script landed on the lap of Emma Tillinger Koskoff, who’s an incredible producer - The Irishman, Joker, the list goes on and on.
From this foundation, Daddio quickly continued to build upwards. With Johnson now onboard as not only one of the stars but also a producer, she offered Hall the favor of a lifetime - to “slip the script” to her pal Penn. “And I just said, ‘Well, we would be so lucky.’ He read it right away, and once the cast was solidified, that made it easier to find financing,” Hall explained.
A Word of Advice Having built her career from the ground up, Hall added a piece of advice for all the up-and-coming and hopeful writers and directors who might be reading, “I just have to say to all you storytellers out there, do the work and write from your heart. Create from your heart and just really trust that the people who are meant to champion you will arrive, and they’ll arrive right on time even if it takes longer than you thought.
Celebrating its world premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival, Daddio has yet to announce a theatrical release.
