During an interview with Variety, Elizabeth said, “I hope that people understand that in order for characters to grow, they need to be flawed in the beginning. So we very much intentionally created two characters that had been bred to hate each other.”

“They are flawed at the beginning and that was intentional. In order for the red heart and the blue heart to kind of turn purple, you have to have them be kind of extreme,” she added.

For her part, Carson, 29, said, “Why I fell in love with the movie is that it’s a love story but it’s so much more than that.”

“It’s two hearts, one red, one blue, two worlds apart, who are really raised to hate each other,” said the former Disney actress.
