It’s a bit of a stab in the dark not knowing how best to approach her.”
“You’re speaking directly. Ari explained to her how he was listening to the song while he was writing the film and the song is very much the DNA of the film.

Additionally, she was worried about the budget — the film cost $35 million to make “just because of the size of that song.
