He added that although his character Enid is played as a K-pop fan, Jenna Ortega’s dance does not choreographer. Instead, he sent a collection of videos to Ortega showing how Enid could dance, leaving the final interpretation to his co-protagonist.
“I wasn’t on the set to see Jenna do it, but I sent her a lot of videos … I think she pulled what she wanted. So I let her do her things.” Emma Myers said.
