With director Will Gluck’s Peter Rabbit 2 now playing in theaters, I recently spoke to Elizabeth Debicki and David Oyelowo and making the animated sequel. During the fun interview, Debicki and Oyelowo talked about why people would be surprised to learn about making an animated movie like Peter Rabbit 2, why Oyelowo originally turned down the role due and how his daughter made him do it, when they felt like they made it and could just act and pay rent, and more. In addition, we at Collider have been pretty obsessed with the Tenet production photo that seems to show Christopher Nolan taking Debicki hostage—which, of course, the internet turned into a meme—and we wanted to know if she’d seen it yet. (You can see a few versions in the video for yourself.)
Check out what they had to say in the player above and below is exactly what we talked about followed by the Peter Rabbit 2 synopsis. The sequel also stars Rose Byrne, Domhnall Gleeson, and the voices of Colin Moody and Margot Robbie.
