Скачать или смотреть Samara Weaving & Karl Glusman on High-Speed Heists in “Eenie Meanie”

Jamaal Finkley of BlackTree TV sits down with Samara Weaving and Karl Glusman to talk about their high-speed heist thriller Eenie Meanie—Shawn Simmons’ (Wayne, The Continental) feature directorial debut.

Samara opens up about lying her way into the role by claiming she could drive, only to have to learn from scratch and go from “terrified behind the wheel” to doing donuts and reverse slides in just six months. Karl reflects on playing “the loser ex-boyfriend,” embracing the opposite of cool for the sake of the scene, and working alongside football icon Marshawn Lynch—who nicknamed Samara the “Cheeky Koala.”

This fun and candid conversation covers driving stunts, acting challenges, accents, New York roots, and why sometimes “losing is winning” when it comes to character work.

🎥 Eenie Meanie premieres August 22, 2025, streaming exclusively on Hulu (U.S.) and Disney+ (International).
