  Sandra Hüller, who played Eva Stratt, described the role as one of her softest, saying that Stratt acts with her whole heart and a total understanding of the crushing weight she carries, not because she is cold or uncaring. She is extremely pragmatic and has been given an insane amount of power to solve the crisis.

  Gosling never looked better than that last shot with the turn and clap.

  The “Rocky hate Mark” line was ad libbed. The lead puppeteer, James Ortiz, and Gosling developed a rapport, and did lots of ad libbing. &nbsp;Gosling’s friend Mark was on set that day, so Gosling threw in the bit about Mark, and Ortiz hit it out of the park.<br><br>They were intending on casting a name actor to voice Rocky, but they loved what Ortiz brought to the character. &nbsp;They were able to use some of the on-set sound.<br><br>Rocky was a puppet with rods and animatronics. There were up to 6 total Rocketeers operating him at a time. When he couldn’t be operated, like when he was in the ball, the puppeteers created reference footage, using a smaller table-top Rocky with reference dots, so the animators could keep his motions consistent.

  Eva isn&apos;t cold, she&apos;s willing to make the hard decisions and stick by them. &nbsp;When others would be scrapping for power or paralyzed by fear and grief she makes the hard trolly problem decisions to try and save the most people with the least loss. &nbsp;Everyone likes to think they&apos;d be logical and practical but she&apos;s the one that is actually being those things. &nbsp;She loves people enough to do what it takes to save as many as possible.

  The book is incredibly witty. Weir does dry comedy so well. Highly recommend reading it or even listening to the audio book.

  Stratt singing came about when Ryan heard the actress sing in her room and convinced her to do it for the movie. She picked the song.

  Choosing to use Rocky&apos;s lead puppeteer for his voice too is one of the best decisions ever made on a film set.

  I love the bit where Yao tells Grace he just has to find someone to be brave for, and although Grace is forced on the Hail Mary, in the end he chooses to find Rocky instead of returning to Earth because he found someone to be brave for: Rocky

  The book is funny, too, entirely because of Grace. I laughed out loud more than once. He&apos;s just so <i>real</i> and <i>relatable.</i> It&apos;s very easy to see yourself in him.

  I need Grace&apos;s entire wardrobe from this film. Especially that fox cardigan

  The Cardigan comes in a kit to be knitted. &nbsp;Emma Stone who has done 3 movies with him says he can eat more Twizzlers than anyone and keeps them in his pocket. &nbsp;The humor is the same and the movie is more about the relationship and cooperation, if you want all the science read the book.
