“Brad had this complicated character, and I wanted a complication on my side so that it wasn’t just a good-and-evil battle, and that’s when I came up with the bad-shooting thing.”

“I worked with a writer — but then all the sudden we’re shooting and we didn’t have a script that Brad and I agreed on. Each of us had different ideas about it. I understand why he wanted to stay with his point of view, and I wanted to stay with my point of view — or I was imposing my point of view, and it’s fair to say that that’s what Brad felt.”
In the end, the movie received average earnings at the box office and currently stands at a rating of 6.2/10 on IMDB and 35% on Rotten Tomatoes.The Devil’s Ownis currently available to stream on Netflix.
