The film features several intimate scenes between the actors, which the couple discussed during an appearance on The Graham Norton Show.
When asked if their families had seen the flick yet, Paul said: “Given the Irish premiere, it's a difficult proposition to allocate tickets to all the aunts and uncles.” They've seen my bum before, but there's something more in this film more going on, I would say!'
Andrew added: “I don't want to be there if my parents see it!”

Speaking more about the film, he added: “I didn't know much about his story, so I spoke to a lot of his friends and family. “He was such an icon and a hero, but I wanted to find out who he was man and as a father. On the first day of filming, all of these people were behind the camera. I was so scared.'
Kingsley revealed that he prepared for the role on the set of Barbie: “I only had eight weeks to prepare, so I bought a guitar and did a lot of research.” I set up my “bob station” right behind the spot , where Ryan Gosling shouts “Sublime.”
