What about the story resonated with you the most?

LEVY:  Everyone came to it for different reasons, but it was something that felt true to them personally. I thought, “What if you could revisit your own history and maybe have a chance at making peace with it?”

What resonated with you the most?

REYNOLDS: There’s a line in there that is from my real life, which is that “boys always come back for their mamas.” That was very true when my dad passed away. I’m one of four boys, and it was just this circling the wagons around my mom.

Can you talk about the direction you wanted to take The Adam Project?

REYNOLDS: I think Shawn [Levy] does something unique—and it’s the reason I want to do every movie I could ever do with him. Spielberg does it, too. You’re in the theater watching the movie while you’re making it.

LEVY: This movie is everything I love because it’s got this big wish-fulfillment premise, but it’s also an actor’s piece. Everyone got meat on the bone to play with. There’s a mixture of spectacle and fantasy and comedy and, above all, heart.
