"Has Anybody Read The Script?": Sicario Producers Had Bizarre Note For Filming

Roger Deakins reveals that producers originally had a bizarre note for filming Sicario. The 2015 thriller, directed by Denis Villeneuve, followed FBI agent Kate Macer (Emily Blunt), who was enlisted by a government task force to bring down the leader of a Mexican drug cartel. Sicario also dealt with conflicts at the border between Mexico and the United States, with production taking place in both countries. Upon its release, the movie earned praise from critics and audiences alike, and a sequel, Sicario: Day of the Soldado, was made shortly after.
