Edited image of Caitlin Cronenberg, Jay Baruchel & Emily Hampshire during Humane interview
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT A dysfunctional family is pushed to the brink in Humane. The horror-thriller is set in the near future, where the Earth's resources have dwindled to extinction-level concerns, forcing countries to have to reduce their populations by 20%.
The "Originality" Of Humane's Concept Inspired Cronenberg To Make Her Feature Debut Though coming from cinematic royalty and having her own background in the world of movies as a photographer, Cronenberg had yet to make the leap to feature-length filmmaking before Humane, having helmed the 2018 short The Endings and 2021's The Death of David Cronenberg.
Emily Hampshire: I love this very specific tone, it is one of my favorite to watch, and to be in, and it doesn't come around a lot. So, that dark comedy aspect of it, and especially getting to work with Jay — we've worked together a lot, and we've known each other forever. So, to get to play siblings was a huge thing to me, but yeah, this is a different one that has that kind of social thriller about it that I think makes it really interesting.
Caitlin Cronenberg: I think the other thing that was really cool about the way that the tone shifts is that you see all the characters showing up for dinner before they know what's actually happened. So, you actually get to experience a tonal shift in all of the characters in real time. They're going from like, "Ugh, Dad, blah," and then it's all of a sudden this shock to the system, and then this incredibly emotional sort of midpoint, and then chaos.
Jay Baruchel: Same, man, if I could do every movie with Emily, I would. It's just an absolute joy, and that much less to figure out, which means you have that much more space to actually learn. We've just been adding coats of paint to this relationship and this collaboration for decades, so an absolute honor every time.
Emily Hampshire: But I'd like to direct you to a subreddit thread that Caitlin just told us about, which is, "Yay, Jay is playing an a---ole again". There's a whole group of people that like Jay as an a---ole. And Doug, who was the DP on this film, he and I had weeks of conversation leading up to the start of production about what the different sections of the film would look like.
