According to the Catherine Tramell fame, she didn’t feel quite comfortable working with the Ant-Man actor and similarly, she felt the same attitude on Douglas’ side as well.

“I had met him on two or three occasions in social situations before I tested with him for this movie. I really felt that he and I could have a certain strange, dynamic energy together. I was never comfortable around him, and I don’t think he was comfortable around me.”

In the interview with Playboy, the 65-year-old shared that the discomfort shared between them helped in showing the chemistry between the on-screen characters well.

“I think that kind of discomfort lends itself to this kind of movie. Tension is good. It was all about watching him, observing his movements, provoking him. If one were to believe in karma, I would say there is some karmic circle yet unfulfilled between the two of us. Our energy together was strong. It still isn’t comfortable for me, but I think it works very well for our work together.”
