Juno Temple On ‘Magic Magic,’ Michael Cera

Juno Temple stars alongside Michael Cera in the dark thriller Magic Magic directed by Sebastian Silva, in which she portrays a disturbed young woman losing touch with reality while vacationing in Chile.

Temple, seduced by the unpredictability of the script, found it a great challenge to portray a character with such deep issues. “She’s in a place where she can’t relate to anyone or anything around her even nature becomes her worst enemy and I wanted to do that you know I wanted to challenge myself and I think it was an important, important thing because I felt like everything around the idea was so perfect,” Temple told uInterview in an exclusive interview.

Temple, who worked previously with Cera on the 2009 comedy Year One, had nothing but praise for his performance in Magic Magic. “I just think his performance in that moment is extraordinary because you see this character all the way through and he has a moment of just vulnerability on another level,” she told Uinterview. “I love him in it.”
