We had an exclusive chat with Edward Norton and Jacob Latimore about their latest movie Collateral Beauty.
I got to sit down with Edward and Jacob to chat about the movie and being a part of such a great cast.
The movie is based around Will Smith’s character, Howard, who suffers a great tragedy and retreats from life. While his concerned friends, Edward Norton, Michael Pena and Kate Winslet, try desperately to reconnect with him, he seeks answers from the universe by writing letters to Love, Time and Death.
But it’s not until his notes bring unexpected personal responses that he begins to understand how to deal with his tragedy and sees the “collateral beauty”.
I asked both Edward and Jacob about who they think brought “love”, “time” and “death” behind the scenes while shooting the movie.
For love they picked the most lovable cast member, Will Smith, for time they chose the person who was late most often, Edward, and for death they picked the grumpiest cast member, Michael Pena.
Edward also shared some unusual advice he was once given when trying to battle his nerves.

I also got to sit down with the director of the movie, David Frankel. His previous movies include Devil Wears Prada and Marley and Me and now he’s responsible for this brilliant movie.
He told me about the person who was originally lined up to play Will Smith and also about how he will be spending his Christmas.
The movie is out on St. Stephen’s Day.
