- Filming began in 2019, according to Linklater, but the project still has a long way to go.
- According to Linklater, production comprises nine sections over 20 years; the fourth is due to be filmed in coming months.
- Linklater said Boyhood was filmed discreetly over 12 years, so he did not need public updates at the time.
- In the film, Mescal plays Franklin Shepard, while Beanie Feldstein portrays Mary Flynn and Ben Platt plays Charley Kringas.
My progress report is it’s [shooting] nine sections in 20 years. And in a few months, we’re filming the fourth section. So see you in 2040.— Richard Linklater said during an interview at the Zurich Film Festival (with CEO Christian Jungen) about Merrily We Roll Along.
