205: Samara Weaving & Jimmy Warden on Borderline, Twisted Love Stories, and That Time They Were Followed Home

Samara Weaving (Ready or Not, Scream VI, The Babysitter) and her husband, writer-director Jimmy Warden (Cocaine Bear, The Babysitter: Killer Queen), sit down with us to talk all things Borderline—a darkly twisted thriller about fame, obsession, and dangerous attraction. Samara stars as Sofia, a former ‘90s pop star trapped in a psychological game with an unhinged fan (Ray Nicholson), and Jimmy pulls back the curtain on making his feature directorial debut alongside his wife.

We dive into the film’s wild creative process, Samara’s electric chemistry with Ray, and what it was like directing a film that blurs the line between love and madness. Plus, they share a hilarious (and slightly eerie) real-life story about being followed home—eerily fitting for Borderline’s themes.

Beyond the film, we talk The Babysitter, Cocaine Bear, and Samara’s rise as a modern scream queen. And yes, we ask about Ready or Not 2—how could we not?
