The two actresses stemming from diverse backgrounds and having navigated box office success in their own ways have come together to bring Noah Pink's thrilling survival script based on real-life events to life. While fans were already neck deep into appreciating their versatility with Sweeney just having taken off her nun costume, Daniel Brühl too has jumped on the carriage.

The German-Spanish actor who is no is no stranger to intense movie sets having done All Quiet on the Western Front, opened up on just how much of a solace the two ladies and the rest of the Eden cast had been in the intense movie sequence.

For the unversed, Noah Pink's upcoming movie follows a couple in the 1920s trying to find a new life on a remote island. As if the intense conditions, which Daniel Brühl described in his interview with Collider as "hot and sticky" were not problem enough, they meet the worst of humanity, ironically, in three humans. The actor revealed while he thankfully did not have to come across such evil, but the island that they were shooting on, Galápagos, was not an easy ride. And if it were not for the Eden cast members sticking together, things would have gotten worse.

As per the sneak peeks given by cast members and the teasers, the movie is slated to be quite an intense ride. Therefore, it does not come as a surprise that the cast who had actually gotten in the shoes of their respective characters and shot in real locations found it to be harshly contradictory to the glitzy looks they were sporting for the premiere.

While zombie apocalypse and survival movies often make fans wonder if they would be able to survive the same, one often forgets how the cast was able to. For the upcoming thriller that has Sydney Sweeney and Ana de Armas in the lead, as per Daniel Brühl's revelations, getting through the calamities that come with being on a remote island took a toll on not just the cast but production as well.

The actor revealed that while shooting the movie, there were no studio or even cover sets, therefore it was not rare for the cast and crew to find themselves embroiled in a storm. To overcome all these adversities, the cast had no option but to stick together and work harder. Hopefully, Eden's ride to the box office contradicts the harshness of the making.
