Talking to Netflix Tudum, the lead actors Jude Law and Jason Bateman also shared their thoughts on the series, raising anticipation for what to expect ahead. Bateman touched upon the two brothers' bond and journey in the series, and said:
"It’s really about these brothers who love each other but don’t match — one’s a screw-up, and the other is much more buttoned up. Everybody can relate to that. Everybody’s either got a sibling, or a friendship where you love being with one another, but it’s kind of dangerous; where that person usually gets you in trouble, but they’re really exciting to be around.”Law mentioned his hopes for the fans and said:
"It’s a very interesting world. At the heart, I hope [audiences] are hooked by the complicated, loving, volatile relationship of these two brothers."While these points give more details about the series, global viewers will get to dive deep into the dark and risky world of the Friedkin brothers and Black Rabbit soon.
