Pascal emphasized how thankful he was for her advocacy, saying, “I was one incredibly grateful, two, a huge fan.” He explained that their bond is built on a deep understanding of each other’s creative process and emotional experiences. “I think that we really, really see each other in ourselves in terms of our care for what we do, our care for one another, and our mutual fears, our mutual expectations.” He added, “We can be kind of hard on ourselves, and I just think that we’re very, very similar.”
