To play legendary photographer Danny Lyon in 'The Bikeriders,' star Mike Faist snapped scores of behind-the-scenes shots — like this photo of costars Boyd Holbrook, Austin Butler, and Tom Hardy.

“He strikes me as a person who is searching for meaning in the things he’s interested in,” Nichols says of Faist. “That’s how he approached this role, and every time I cut to his character, he was invested in the stories he was recording. It would be very easy for this role to have been a wallflower, but Mike imbued his character with introspection and empathy.”

Much of the film centers around interviews between Lyon and Kathy, and Nichols structured his screenplay around three different conversations in three different years: 1965, 1969, and 1973. Doing so allowed him to chronicle the rise and fall of the club — from the romance and optimism of the early days to the more jaded sincerity of the later years. “I chose to cut back and forth between all three interviews throughout the film,” he explains.

But, the director adds, it’s Comer and Faist’s performances that fully breathe life into those interviews. “Those scenes are the backbone of the film,” he explains, “narratively and emotionally.”The Bikeriderspost-credits scene Brooke Shields surprised nearly nude Benjamin Bratt by dropping her dress so he didn't feel alone on movie setCorey Feldman wants to 'stay away' from Michael Jackson discourse: 'It's just a giant trapdoor for me'
