Jacob Tremblay’s Doctor Sleep Scene: 'Fake-ob Tremblay’ And More Bizarre Behind-The-Scenes Stories

[@kolbyyates1004]

First time I ever felt sick and shocked at a scene in a film. Tremblay is solid.

I was just looking at that scene where Jacob got kidnapped by them but I couldn't finish it I couldn't watch them killed that innocent boy so I decided not to look at it and just check out the behind the scenes instead I seriously couldn't look at that innocent boy be killed even if it's acting but this sort of thing does happen to kids

You know there is one powerful actor among people when a complete proffessional crew just got litterally stunned by his performance as a kid in one scene. I sure hope he will continue his path. He could bring a lot of amazing anekdotes to the table for decades to come. Also amazing performances, since really, that was some great acting.

There is something SO reassuring about the fact that no one ASKED him to do that. The idea of some sick casting directors screening kids and auditioning them, and deciding whose death screams felt the most real… imagining they told him to do a Take 2 and “put more pain into it!” In hindsight, it makes a lot of sense. That psychic vampire shit about sniffing magic life-smoke is so cheesy it feels entirely out of place with how heartbreaking Tremblay sounded. And the sickest part is that it made me remember that there are monstrous people out there. They do shit like that for real. They aren’t getting any magical life-smoke out of it, they just want to hurt and kill. It bothered me so much, that juxtaposing of obvious sci-fi/fantasy shenanigans with the harshest of realities… This interview should be mandatory watching after seeing this movie. It’s truly therapeutic hearing the funny stories from behind the scenes and understanding just how haunted everyone was by it all. I’m a grown-ass man, and this felt like Mom and Dad coming out from behind the Halloween decorations to say “Don’t worry! It’s all pretend! We’re having fun!” Feels like I’m in on it and now we can just celebrate Jacob Tremblay’s phenomenal skill!

[@meems4378]

You hit it on the head. I think I had the same issue - it was so real I imagined the children that it's actually happened too and I couldn't separate the two.

I didn’t even cry. I felt a void open up in my heart when I saw and heard that. It makes you reflect and understand why we should ALWAYS take AMBER Alerts seriously.

[@AlbertusSalvatierra]

For anyone wanting to know, I’ve have made a timeline for Rose the Hat. It’s info I’ve gathered through the book and interviews with some of the actors. Rose O’Hara is a 700 year old vampire. She was born in 1319, in a place which is now known as County Antrim of Northern Ireland. She was poor and alone when she was younger. The reason for why she was alone is unknown, but it might have something to do with her supernatural abilities, which allows her to read minds. At some point in her early life she met the True Knot, which are a group of nomadic people that possessed abilities that are very similar to that of Roses. These people gave Rose the gifts of “purpose” and “community”, which eventually led to her becoming one of them through a proses called “turning”. Rose and her new family would then travel all throughout old Europe posing as wandering merchants. Around 400 years later, during early American colonization, Rose and her tribe would embark on a ship to America. During the time Rose was known as Irish Rose. A war broke out when Rose and the Knot arrived to America. The war was between colonies in British America and those in New France. Each side was being supported by their Native American allies. It was during this war that Rose found her lover, who was a Native American tracker given the name Crow Daddy. She ended up turning him, so he could be with her in the Knot. Around 170 years later and the industrialized world's worst economic downturn occurs, which is now known as the Great Depression. It’s was a fantastic time for Rose and the Knot, and it was during this time that Rose found her signature top hat. From that point on she was known as Rose the Hat.

[@jamesmorrison2055]

In the book, crow was actually a Harvard educated lawyer she met in the '40s...

[@patriot4780]

Madeline Foret I was thinking the same thing about the scene where the kid dies.

[@kathernandez6682]

Definitely omg

[@RyanSmith6644]

This scene really bothered me the first time I saw it because I know true crime stories. They show you the story of that person’s life and the aftermath but no one really knows what that child or person is going threw in the in between when it’s just that person ant the person who takes their life. This literally felt to me like I was an outsider watching a real experience of what happens to those missing kids and adults before they are found. It was like I was experiencing what they go threw with them in real time. No movie or reenactment has ever made me feel that way and it literally broke me for such a long time I couldn’t rewatch it and I’ve seen and experienced some awful things in my lifetime I was absolutely not prepared for this. Being a highly empathetic person this physically hurt me and broke my spirit especially given it was a child and I have that mothering instinct. That kid was incredible because he truly made me believe I was actually watching a real murder. I’m shook his parents were not only alright with this but they could stomach watching that especially such a realistic depiction of their child being brutally murdered. I asked my date how a parent could be alright with that because I know I wouldn’t have been.

[@vilmavanninen6950]

Because "Doctor Sleep" is a horror movie based on a Stephen King novel of the same name and they WERE AWARE that "Doctor Sleep" is a horror movie based on a Stephen King novel of the same name...? It's FICTION and it's SUPPOSED TO bother you. Come on now.

All of that it would have been great to seen on the set. Especially when Jacob jumps up and does a High 5 with his Dad and then he heads over to get a bite with all of the fake blood on him. That death scene young Jacob Trembley did was way far much more than what many of us was expecting. I've seen Jacob in films become the Character he plays and he is brilliant fantastic great. Jacob is a real true star shining Angel Hero. He puts so much into becoming the Character he is capable of playing without wasting no time. Sometimes he is to convincing. The guys talk about what did happen during filming on the set. And what the other Adult Actors felt at the death of Jacob and what they did right away after that scene they played. And what His Dad said to them. You have no idea what your in for. All of that would be great to see as a full video uncut with all of it showing and up to when Jacob High 5 Fives his Dad and then goes for a snack with all the fake Blood on him from his fake pretend death. And the rest of the Actors was nowhere in sight to be seen. Jacob Trembley is a real true Star and going far.

I can’t stand to see kids getting hurt, and I hated what happened to Bradley Trevor. Hearing the terror in his voice and seeing the desperation on his face made me want to jump into the scene and help him. That said, I had absolutely no sympathy for Rose and her vampire cult, and I took GREAT pleasure in any scene where she was in agony, because as far as I’m concerned, she deserved every ounce of pain she felt. If I had written the story, Bradley would’ve been rescued, and Rose and her cult would have fallen into hell itself. “Pain purifies steam” she said, and her steam would have been purer than spring water.
