Dafne Keen

“I think that was a startling day for a lot of the crew, because I think Daf arrived on-set, she was doing her scenes, and everyone thought she was really cool and doing great, and then suddenly that scene, I remember turning to Trevor [Loomis], he was our focus puller, and suddenly our script supervisor Sheila [Waldron] was like, ‘Oh my God.’ And everyone—because not everyone in the crew had been through the whole reading process with Daf and knew just how ready she was to leap into talking and letting him have it. She’s saying some pretty nasty things in Spanish.” -James Mangold on Laura’s first speaking scene

At this point, Dafne interjects that her favorite lines from the sequence apparently got lost on the editing room floor.

“You cut them out or something,” she says with a hint of disappointment. Her director is surprised, asking, “Did we cut out the worst words?” Dafne nods affirmatively again, “Yeah.”
