Working with J2

AfterBuzz TV interview: SPN 11x17 Red Meat

with Nina Lopez-Corrado (director) and Lisa Berry (Billie the Reaper); 
slightly edited for brevity [link]

Nina Lopez-Corrado (~16-min. mark): Everybody, especially Jared and Jensen, they come very prepared to set. They’re on point, always. But they’re also really amazing about collaborating. I hope, and I feel like, they trusted me. So they really went there. Especially Jensen in this episode. He really, really brought it. That scene [leaving Sam’s body in the cabin] and that ending scene — you’re just like oh my gosh! you felt — you want to hug him.

Lisa Berry about Jensen (~25-min. mark): It was great working with him, too. That was such an amazing day. Part of me was just in awe ‘cause he’s such a phenomenal actor — [Nina nodding: SO great] — and I’m always like, you should just do a pop-up class one day and teach everybody what you know. But he’s a dad, an actor, and also a director, you know, he does a million things.

Nina Lopez-Corrado (~28-min. mark): There is never NOT fun on set. They’re always joking around. I’ve never seen two lead actors that are so close and are so awesome and so fun to be around ALL THE TIME. Especially Jared. He’s just like a big ball of energy. It’ll be like 3 o’clock in the morning, and he’s still cracking jokes and watching YouTube videos with the camera department. They’re awesome.
