Reese Witherspoon and Nicole Kidman insist there was zero Big Little Lies directing drama
Photo: Jennifer Clasen/HBO Earlier this month, a bombshell report emerged from numerous Big Little Lies sources that claimed Andrea Arnold, who took over the show’s directing duties from Jean-Marc Vallée in the second season, was taken away creative control by Vallée and his team of editors and producers as the season progressed.
“In our minds, there is no controversy. We just love the show. We had such a great time doing it,” Witherspoon explained. “There was a lot of misinformation and no credited sources on any of the information. This was an incredibly collaborative process for all of us and the idea that anyone was mistreated and not communicated with is completely not true. I was glad that Casey spoke so clearly about that and we are thrilled with the collaboration that yielded this season.
He said it beautifully. That’s why we had Casey handle it. Obviously, he’s the head of HBO. He really said it beautifully. In addition to rebuking the reports, Bloys said that HBO was clear with Arnold about the season’s expectations and chains of command. “As anybody who works in television knows, the director typically doesn’t have final creative control,” Bloys explained. “So the idea that creative control was taken from a director is just a false premise. For anyone who understands television, this is business as usual.
