The Philippou brothers are practically buzzing with energy. I’m the first person to sit down with them for an interview in a warm, spacious conference room in A24’s New York office, after the Australian twin brothers and filmmaking duo had premiered their new horror movie, Bring Her Back, the night before in New York City. Danny Philippou, with his shock of bleach-blonde hair, leans back in his chair (I’m worried he will fall out) while Michael Philippou, his dark brown hair close-shaven, wanders in and starts chatting immediately with us. As we sit down to begin our interview, I ask them the big question: how did they feel about showing their new movie to an audience for the first time?
“It was just the most nerve-wracking thing ever,” Danny Philippou confesses to Inverse.
