Emily said that the cast would leave the premiere if a strike was called.

“I hope everyone makes a fair deal, and we are here to celebrate this movie. And if they call it, we’ll be leaving together as cast in unity with everyone,” she said. “We are gonna have to. We are gonna have to. We will see what happens. Right now it’s the joy to be together.”
