Zach Braff doesn't make many movies. A Good Person, starring Florence Pugh and Morgan Freeman, is only the filmmaker's fourth in almost 20 years. That speaks to an actor-turned-director who is always waiting for the right story to tell. Unfortunately for Braff, like so many others, the COVID pandemic brought about a wave of tragedy. It's something he used as fuel to mold into his new project.
"During the pandemic, I had the time and I had a lot of loss," Braff tells GamesRadar+ ahead of the Sky Original's release. "I lost some people who were very close to me, including one of my best friends to COVID. So what bubbled up was wanting to write about grief and standing back up after tragedy and loss. It just became very clear that it was the thing I wanted to write about."
