A emoção de um novo filme de destino final que atinge os cinemas é inegável, e os fãs estão zumbindo sobre o destino final: linhagens , a sexta parcela da icônica franquia de terror. Este último capítulo não estaria completo sem a presença do lendário Tony Todd, cuja performance inesquecível como Candyman original deixou uma marca duradoura no cinema de terror. Em uma reviravolta comovente, Todd entregou um monólogo sem escritos no filme, um momento em que o produtor Craig Perry descreveu como "muito agridoce".
In a recent interview with Deadline, Perry discussed both the new film and his journey producing the entire franchise, which began in 2000. He shared insights into Todd's health during the filming, noting, "We all knew that he was obviously quite ill. And it was pretty clear that this was going to be the last role he would play in a movie, and the fact that it was one of the Final Destination movies made it that much more poignant."
Perry também destacou a decisão criativa tomada pelos diretores Zach Lipovsky e Adam Stein durante as filmagens da cena de Todd. Eles optaram por se desviar do roteiro, permitindo que Todd falasse diretamente do coração. Perry recounted, "Our directors, they made a very shrewd decision to take the last couple of lines that were scripted and said, 'Tony, just, just say what you would want to say to the fans. What would you like to impart to them in this moment?'" This approach resulted in a deeply emotional and authentic scene, as Perry explained, "So, everything that makes that scene so emotional is authentic because that was just Tony talking through the camera to the very fans who apoiou -o por tantos anos.
