It was wonderful to see that and work with him in person. He’s very genuine and has a great sense of humor about himself. He really is as wonderful as everyone says he is, and he’s incredibly hardworking, and what he’s done is so remarkable. I don’t know if there’s something that we don’t know about him. How is it working with The Rock? Tell us something that we don’t know about him. And this is a very tough, strong female character and I think that it brings out a different side of myself for that role. But it’s interesting.Īnd I think it’s important, too, when you are developing the character, to actually do the things and go through the things that the character would have gone through to the extent that you can, because I think it helps you develop the character. And it’s an interesting test, I think, because you have to get to that level of fear and sort of surprise and dismay and whatever would happen being in that kind of situation. But there’s a tsunami wave that comes and you have to imagine it as huge and terrifying and possible. So for this it was less sort of talking to a tennis ball since there aren’t creatures. You use your imagination and it’s interesting. So it was an interesting thing to do, Percy Jackson, which was my first big movie, was sort of a crash course in how to do that, I think. As an actor, when you are studying theatre in New York, you don’t learn how to act off of a tennis ball blinking or a green screen or act like nothing’s there. But I think people are more aware to keep extra water and food around and that kind of thing.Ĭan you talk about the scope of this movie, how big it is, and how you deal with that as an actor? You’ve worked with special effects before in the Percy Jackson movies, but when you are on the set and there’s all this stuff that you maybe are not seeing, how does that affect your work? Sort of preparing for the apocalypse kind of thing. I’ve seen more people with sort of these very extensive preparedness kits, almost too extensive. They’re like, “Well, it’s going to happen inevitably.” But you do see a lot more in L.A. I think now people are thinking about it more just because it’s been so long since one. So I don’t think people think about it as much. There’s earthquakes out in California.” But California hasn’t had a big earthquake in a long time. She gets to display some action and stunt chops in San Andreas, and spoke recently with Den Of Geek about her own experiences with earthquakes, playing The Rock’s daughter and whether she has any inside intel on season two of True Detective.ĭid people warn you about them when you moved to Los Angeles? Her other credits include The Squid and the Whale, the two Percy Jackson & The Olympians movies (where she played female lead Annabeth), shows like Law and Orderand White Collar, and a memorable turn as Woody Harrelson’s extramarital lover in the first season of True Detective. It’s the latest in a series of increasingly high-profile roles for the striking 29-year-old actress, who made her debut on All My Children 13 years ago and has migrated between TV and film for years. In San Andreas, Alexandra Daddario plays Blake, the daughter of rescue worker Ray Gaines (Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson) and his ex-wife Emma (Carla Gugino), who finds herself separated from her parents and leading her own little trio of survivors after a massive earthquake shreds the California coastline.
