We rehearsed, and I pre-recorded a song, and then we had figured out, ‘Do I do it live? Which method should we go?’ And then I was like, ‘How do we surprise her to get a reaction?’ And Jess just had a brilliant idea, which I think is brave as an actor: ‘Well I don’t want to go to rehearsals to see it. I would rather just be surprised and live in the moment.’ I think that’s what allowed kind of that energy to happen on that screen. We as a group, all the rest of the cast just wanted to surprise her and find ways to get a reaction out of her because she’d never seen it before. So it almost felt like a real proposal in a lot of ways. And also, to not make it dancey and musical. It’s just a real, intimate moment.
