Victoria Justice & Matthew Daddario Explain Their Definition of Cheating

I'm excited. How well do I know Matt and Dr. I I love filming in New York. I have lived in New York for most of the years of my life. I I wonder which one's real.

have lived on the West side of New York.

Uh, I think the lie is that you've lived on the west side of.

That is correct. Ding, ding, ding, you are correct. Ding, ding, ding, ding. She got it right. I have not lived on the west side. I have gone up and down the east side, but I've never ventured over to the wrong side.

All New York related, we love it. Okay. To.

I have sung a Christmas medley for Barack Obama. I just bought a car. And my third one will be that I don't tell many people this, but I have a third nipple.

I'm going to go with the mundane as the lie. I'm going to say that you uh, you didn't just buy a car.

You think buying a car is a lie.

I think that is a lie.

You are incorrect. I oh, I bought a car. I got it right. You have you don't have a third nipple? I do not have a third nipple. I'm surprised you went with the car on that one. What what a what a complete wacko thing to just make up about uh, having a third nipple.

Always know when someone is lying for sure. Oh, yeah. First of all, you're on the morally correct side of everything. Second of all, you you can use that tool for everything. It's a good first date question. And if they say, I'd rather get away with lying all the time, you'd be like, all right. see each other. Well, uh, in Titanic the guy dies at the end. That's true. Yeah, True.

I'd rather be able to lie.

I'd rather have to say trust.

trust it is.

Rather have social media again, is that an option? Can I just do that?

I was like, never can ever access social media, any app, any platform ever. That sounds fantastic. It's a deal.

always ask this question as a kid and I never really understood the answer.

Well, the reason you have a million dollars is to be happy. Right. That's why you have a million dollars. If you just have a million dollars but you're unhappy, then what's the million dollars doing for you? So, true love, does it bring me full happiness? And I would assume yes. I don't need a hundred million dollars. Just give me enough to to, you know, get some food and have a little place to live. And true love. Easy, easy, easy. Easy as pie.

True love it is. Both of you. You would be an artist for sure. I

That's interesting. Be be an artist, like if you own the gallery, you're not an artist at all. I think both are great options. You just have to you're you're What are you a politician? What do you mean? I think both are great options. I think why does it have to be a binary answer? It's it's these things are real life is not black and white, my friend. It's uh, you know, it's um,

You have to choose one. Who would you rather be? There's more. The movie.

The answer is not so clear. That's the point. Okay, both. He gets both. That's fine. I'd rather be Brooke. Oh, I don't know. I think, you know, I always defend Owen. I'm I'm going to defend Owen to the death just because I'd defend Owen, I gotta say I'd rather be Owen, but I think the emotional toll Oh yeah. It's tough. Owen's a good guy. I don't know. That's a tough question. I'm going to go with Owen because you said Brooke.

All right. And Vic, why would you want to be uh Brooke? What's like the thought behind it?

Um, I would want to be Brooke because I feel like she, I don't know. I mean, she didn't actually cheat. Yeah. You know. Um, so I don't think she

Well, wait a minute. had to carry around that guilt. What do you mean he didn't cheat? She didn't cheat. She might she may have you know. Yeah. What is cheating? What do you have to have a certain thing happen for it to be cheating? What what is the explain the rule.

Well, I think I think well, I think that there are different kinds of cheating for sure. you know she did do some emotional cheating in there for sure. So at the end of the day, I think, you know, Brooke made the decision to call the D boy, which maybe wasn't the best thing to do, but hey, she was stressed out. She was having a lot of doubt and insecurities. She was seeing all these clues of of seemingly shady things that that Owen was doing sneaking out late at night. So she made this choice. And I just think, you know, Owen Owen did we made the the moral choice to go through with it. And uh, yeah. I think that I think that I think that the stakes of your the reasons behind the cheating are as important as the cheating under certain circumstances. And I think this is one of them. And I think that in the event that you involve yourself knowingly in a situation uh, that you as a partner would not want to see from your other partner, that you've already crossed that line, then how deeply you bury that through lying, then sort of adds insult to injury.

I can see your it all comes down to trust rather than to necessarily. But at the end of the day, you did make the choice to go ahead with it. You didn't have to. And Brooke made the choice to end up half naked in the lips, lips of millimeter away. I mean, you know, distances, we could say that we're never really touching anything cuz the atoms aren't touching. I mean, what's the distance for quite.

But I don't think I don't Brooke, I I hear what you're saying, I totally hear what you're saying, but I I don't think that she went any further with him there. I think so. Well, I don't know. I don't know what you're saying. I don't think that I think that's up for audiences to decide.

Did you guys feel this like compassionate about it when you were reading the script or kind of after the fact when it was like you wrapped filming, realizing what really really went on.

I'm a ruthless defender of Owen. I just I got to defend him because, you know, I I got to defend my character.

You guys excited about like when you read the script to play the roles?

Oh, yeah. Yeah, definitely, definitely. I love so many things about my character. I love that she's like this like determined, um, strong-minded woman. She's kind of like a boss, you know, She has her own gallery. She's calling the shots. She knows what she wants. She's like making moves. Um, I love that about her. I love that it takes place in the art world. I love like her sometimes her clothes were so cute. Um, so it was super fun and the fact that it takes place in New York is really fun. And I also love the whole, you know, our relationship dynamic. So I was super excited to play this role. Brooke is Brooke is very cool and she's very focused on what she wants to do, but she has certain insecurities in her relationship, which makes her feel very real. And then Owen is, you know, kind of he's a newscaster. He's kind of at a he's in a stagnant position in his life where he's not really moving forward and and you can see it on his face. He looks a little worn out. Yeah. And I like that about him. I like that he's just kind of he's just kind of worn out guy, you know, It's believable that he's he's going to make a mistake, you know? Yeah. I think that's why I like about the story at the end of the day is that like we're both, you know, flawed characters. And my character obviously has a lot of insecurities and and neuroses and doubt. And um, nobody's perfect. And we all make choices and we all make mistakes. And, um, I think it's going to bring up interesting conversations like, you know, who did cheat? What is considered cheating? Who is in the right? Who is in the wrong? What are the levels? Yeah, there's lots of layers to it, which I think is interesting.

Totally. Well, thank you guys so much for uh, playing the two games and can't wait for the can't wait for the world to see the movie. Thank you very much.

That was really fun. Thank you.
