Behind the Magic of The School for Good & Evil

Netflix’s The School for Good and Evil is filled with so many magical moments - that we could never wonder at how they pulled it all off. With the amount of stunts and practical effects - it's crazy to think that anyone went home without a few injuries. But rest assured - the all star crew quite literally took a beating to keep the cast safe.
When a film is adapted from a book loved around the world - you have to be precise and careful to not undersell the story and essence of the story. Author Soman Chainani made sure to not give up his story to anyone - and he eventually found award-winning director Paul Feig. By bringing him on - he was able to bring to the table vast and detailed sets - and of course - all the cool fight scenes we were hoping to see on the silver screen. But a director needs the right actors - and so after a trip around the world - they landed on the talented lead actresses Sofia Wylie and Sophia Anne Caruso. Plus, they have basically the same first name so it was obviously destined to be true! The rest of the cast came together after months of searching and the rest is cinema.
So finally, the movie we’ve all been waiting for - love it or not - it’s incredible to hear the experiences these Nevers and Evers went through while filming this magical adaptation. You’ll be shocked to see what these poor stunt people went through to sell these fight scenes too!

Anyone else thought that Hester looks like a character from Beetlejuice? 😂

[@nataliacalderon3306]

Yeah your right🤣😂😊🤗

[@calinamontero5184]

And Sophia Ann Caruso (Sophie) was the original Lydia in Beetlejuice on Broadway!

[@lordvenjix3757]

It's a good film which shows us a fantasy world with love and wicked, which makes us entertaining and the storyline is great, plot twists are not predictable and every character's acting skills are impressive.

[@zamanthanichole]

The film was amazing. I'm glad anyone will have glimpse from the behind the scenes of The School for Good and Evil. It is now my favorite film. I have no idea about the book because I haven't read about the book but the film was amazing and i love it. The Cinematography, The Cast and the soundtrack and visual effects we're satisfying.

[@CiceroSapiens]

Read the book!!!!!!!! The film did a great job of condensing it: it was like reading a thousand extra scenes. I absolutely loved the “Easter Eggs.”

[@zamanthanichole]

@@CiceroSapiens i really wanted to read the book but too bad i don't have the books.

[@CiceroSapiens]

@@zamanthanichole ask for them for the holidays! I found them all for like $36 on Amazon.

They did a great job finding the best actress for Hester's Character. I like how she portrayed her. And for me, she even looked like Hester from the book like what I imagined.

I'm a Never and a Reader on the second book in the series, which is so good, even better than the first if that's possible, and I'm hoping that Netflix makes the second one.

Did you know movie the best book series six

[@leonardoburgosguerrero9117]

Book is great!!!! Movie no! but only because they did not take the plots and scenes that really matter and that is why the mystery and the evolution of the relationship between the main characters was not clear! 😢! the problem was the script!

[@CiceroSapiens]

I think they did a fantastic job of condensing such a complex book with so many scenes into a film. I thought they perfectly selected or adapted the right scenes to bring out the plot. Moreover, afterwards I was to enjoy the book so much because i hasn’t already seen it scene for scene.
