BUTTERFIELD: Nathan has been the hardest character that I’ve had to play so far, in terms of the time it took me to really understand him and get into his head. It was a long process. And it took me a while, even after we started shooting, before I got into it and could make that transition quite smoothly. He’s so different to me, and because I’d been him for so long, aspects of his character were coming into my own.
BROWN: With a character like Nathan, it’s easy to see the ways in which he is different, but what were some of the things where you were like, “I understand that. I can relate to that”? BUTTERFIELD: All of the characters in the film, they’re fighters. They’ve all got their own issues that they’re dealing with— Nathan, his mum, and Mr. Humphreys. I haven’t had to deal with anything quite like what these characters have, but I think we all have struggles and things that we find out about ourselves and things in society, which we find to be difficult. I think that’s why all the characters are relatable, and everyone can see bits of themselves in at least one of them.
BUTTERFIELD: I never wanted to be home-schooled. I didn’t like the idea of being home-schooled. I already had a lot of friends at school who didn’t care about the whole acting thing, so there was no reason for me to not be in school. It would only separate myself even further from the real world, and that’s never what I wanted.Have you finished filming, or are you still working on it?
BUTTERFIELD: We finished a couple of weeks ago. That was amazing. That was a really, really fun shoot. It was hard work, because I was doing my A-Levels, but I made some great friends and Tim’s an incredible director to work with. I hadn’t worked with anybody like him at all.BUTTERFIELD: It’s a very Tim Burton film, if you know what I mean. It’s right up his style and his street. You would see him when you get to the set and he’s totally in his zone; you can tell he loves doing it.
