Before it made her a breakout star, ‘The Fire Inside’ put Ryan Destiny through the wringer

In the latest episode of The Envelope video podcast, Ryan Destiny describes the challenges of making boxing movie “The Fire Inside” and Sean Baker and Mikey Madison explain how they fine-tuned the action, comedy and drama of “Anora.” Kelvin Washington: Hello and welcome to “The Envelope.” I’m Kelvin Washington. in Hollywood” and “Scream.” And this really seems like it’ll put her on the map in a different way.

The first scene that we shoot is going to set the tone for who this person is.” I remember feeling a bit shaky in the dialect at first, and then Sean was like, “OK, let’s take it down three notches.” And I think we were able to get to a place where it was really fine-tuned and perfect. That’s really nice to hear from people who are like, “I love Ani” so much and I hope this happens to her.
