Emile Hirsch on Playing Tough in Prey and Why Speed Racer Flopped
Hirsch spoke to MovieWeb about teaming up with Ryan Phillippe for their new desert-set thriller and why The Girl Next Door still holds up.
All these years later, Emile Hirsch still resembles the young lad that led the charge in a certain raunchy comedy known as The Girl Next Door. Two decades later, in his most recent movie Prey, Hirsch plays an entirely different character, a sort of hotheaded wildcard of a pilot trying to escort hopeless Americans away from Africa after a local village is threatened. Leading the group of passengers aboard the doomed plane is a doctor played by Ryan Phillippe, who Hirsch has known personally. It may come as a shock to know they hadn't worked together before Prey.
