Focus Features Curry Barker is explaining how Obsession could have become something very different. The 26-year-old YouTuber-turned-director got candid in an interview with THR about his hit indie horror movie, which is breaking box office records. During the conversation, he was asked about the issue of consent between Bear ( Michael Johnston ) and Nikki ( Inde Navarrette ) after he makes the wish, and whether there was any desire to make it clear what side the movie was on. “Yeah, there was. When we were shopping this around, there were companies that told me they would give me $2 million if I just rewrote the script to make Bear a hero,” he revealed. “I was like, ‘I’m not rewriting the script to make Bear a guy that does all the right things. It’s so much more interesting that he doesn’t do the right thing and instead tries to make [the relationship] work and he just keeps making bad decision after bad decision,'” he continued. “The movie would have been so boring if Bear was going on a journey to figure out the lore of the One Wish Willow. So I turned down more money to tell the story that I was more interested in telling,” Curry added. Curry also said he has a “cool idea” for a sequel.
