"Sofia created this really easy, laid back environment on the set that was such a counter point to what was going on in front of the camera. In between takes of us screaming at each other, we'd go outside and have coffee.
"There was this wooden picnic table at the back of the house and everybody would sit around that. We'd shoot the sh- and have a laugh. It also felt very safe and like we could explore and take chances," Farrell said.
