“Skarsgård came to me, he goes, ‘I want to do a little bit like fuked up French, like Cajun accent. And I’m like, ‘I have no idea what that sounds like.’ Some people gave us sht a little bit because it’s not a good French accent. I’m like, ‘Guys, it’s not supposed to be French.’ Like, he wasn’t trying to be French; he’s a guy that speaks French, that’s all,”said Stehelski (via Far Out Magazine).

Well, although he may have taken a gamble, the film was received quite well by the audiences and was well-loved around the world. Bill Skarsgard’s upcoming film,The Crowis set for release on 22 June 2025 in theaters across the U.S.
