“He (Idris) auditioned with her, he was very tough on her, he said, ‘Listen, at the end of the day we’re going to make the best decision for the movie,” Packer explained. “I trust you, Will, trust the director,’ and she was very good, very close.”
Idris chose another very talented actress as his daughter – Iyana Halley . She also has a famous father – her dad is Hollywood movie producer and former music executive Manny Halley. Here are pics from the premiere:
