“#The Biggest Run Easter Eggs, and an Update on Searching 2 \u2013 \/Film<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

\"Run<\/p>\n

The filmmakers behind the new suspense thriller Run<\/strong><\/em> are no strangers to easter eggs. After all, they threaded an entire alien invasion story through the background of their previous film, Searching<\/em>. Now co-writer\/director Aneesh Chaganty<\/strong> and producer Natalie Qasabian<\/strong> are back with a new suspense thriller starring Kiera Allen and Sarah Paulson as a mother and daughter who have an increasingly fraught relationship as some shocking secrets are revealed.<\/p>\n

I spoke with them about their new movie here, and now that the film is streaming on Hulu for all to see, we can share the rest of our spoiler<\/strong>-heavy conversation, which focused on all of the Run<\/em> easter eggs hidden throughout the story, a few sneaky cameos, and an update on future projects this creative team is involved with \u2013 including Searching 2<\/strong><\/em>.
<\/span><\/p>\n

This interview has been lightly edited for clarity and brevity.<\/em><\/p>\n

I want to talk about some spoiler stuff with you guys \u2013 specifically about the easter eggs. How about if I tell you the things that I noticed, and you tell me if I missed anything? Aneesh, I heard your performance as the recorded voice on the phone when Chloe calls 411.<\/b><\/p>\n

Aneesh: You\u2019re the first person to bring it up!<\/p>\n

Were you channeling anyone in particular during that performance?<\/b><\/p>\n

Aneesh: Honestly, when we were doing the line readings, I was playing the 411 person and I was playing the guy from Brooklyn who she talks to right after. I was just competing with myself to see if I could get the Brooklyn character, but I didn\u2019t get it, so I ended up with the 411 guy.<\/p>\n

I noticed in the credits that Tony Revolori (The Grand Budapest Hotel<\/em>, Spider-Man: Far From Home<\/em>) plays that Brooklyn guy. How did that piece of casting come about?<\/b><\/p>\n

Natalie: He\u2019s a good friend, honestly, that Aneesh, [co-writer and producer] Sev, and I have known for years. We were just like, \u201cWho could pull this off, and who would be a cool cameo to sneak in there?\u201d<\/p>\n

I noticed the names of the movies<\/a> on the marquee: Breakout<\/i> and Fake News<\/a><\/i>. Was there any special significance to those titles, beyond the fact that Chloe is clearly trying to break out of her situation and fake news maybe app<\/a>lying to Chloe\u2019s true parentage?<\/b><\/p>\n

Aneesh: Huh, I did not think about Fake News<\/i> [that way]. Breakout<\/i>\u2019s the obvious one. Fake News<\/i> is the name of a show that Sev and I are developing that we just wanted to pop in there. Did you catch who is the star of Breakout<\/i>?<\/p>\n

No, I didn\u2019t.<\/b><\/p>\n

Aneesh: OK, I love this easter egg. [Searching<\/i> star] John Cho<\/b> makes a very special appearance in this movie on all the posters of Breakout<\/i>. And when [Paulson\u2019s Diane and Allen\u2019s Chloe are] watching the film, during the action sequence, you can hear John talking and giving very action movie lines.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s fantastic. I noticed another one that\u2019s also pretty subtle, but there\u2019s a direct homage to Misery<\/i> in that the pharmacist\u2019s full name is Kathy Bates.<\/b><\/p>\n

Aneesh: Yep, you\u2019re the first to spot that. The pharmacist\u2019s full name is Kathy Bates.<\/p>\n

So those were the ones I noticed, but I know that in Searching<\/i>, you had a whole alien invasion subplot subtly playing out in the background. Did you find a way to continue that here, or to maybe work some other story into the background?<\/b><\/p>\n

Natalie: Stay tuned for Searching 2<\/i>.<\/p>\n

Aneesh: But did you catch the other Searching<\/i> reference in this movie?<\/p>\n

Which one?<\/b><\/p>\n

Aneesh: When Chloe is on her computer in the beginning of the movie and looking at college videos, the video she clicks, there\u2019s the stock model girl\u2026<\/p>\n

Oh, yes! I was like, \u201cIt\u2019s fish_n_chips<\/a>!\u201d I did notice that one, that was great. OK, so I would be bad at my job if I didn\u2019t ask you guys about Searching 2<\/i>, so what\u2019s the latest on that?<\/b><\/p>\n

Natalie: We\u2019re very excited to say that it\u2019s heavily in progress. I think we can say this. Because of the pandemic, we\u2019ve sort of pushed the shoot, but, like the first movie, we\u2019re spending a lot of time pre-vizing the whole movie out, and we\u2019re deep into that process right now. We have seen portions of the movie and we\u2019re very, very excited for it.<\/p>\n

Awesome. Aneesh, do you have something lined up to direct next?<\/b><\/p>\n

Aneesh: Nothing that\u2019s been inked on paper from a studio that says, \u201cWe\u2019re going to put money onto it.\u201d But Sev and I are, right now, writing the movie that the three of us are going to make next. That is sort of like a heist movie that I\u2019ve been talking about loosely. And then there\u2019s a television show that we\u2019re very, very close to having that all inked out. That will probably be the next thing that I direct, and both of them are very, very different from each other. So yeah, on the cusp of being able to know for sure what I\u2019m directing next.<\/p>\n

What\u2019s the ten second tease for Fake News<\/i>?<\/b><\/p>\n

Aneesh: So the show that I was just alluding to is not Fake News<\/i>. It\u2019s a separate one. The thing that I\u2019m learning as you spend more time being allowed to make things, is that it\u2019s a lot like cooking a crazy big meal. Certain dishes will need to simmer and then you put them away and you bring your attention to something else. So we were cooking\u00a0Fake News <\/i>when we were making Run<\/i>, and now it\u2019s simmering, and there\u2019s this other project that came in. So hopefully more on that soon.<\/p>\n
