I wonder if Jacob Tremblay understood his role in the movie


I mean the fact that he's playing a kid who was created in kidnapping and rape being held in a shed. I wonder what the filmmakers told her about the movie to avoid having to tell him something too adult.

I honestly doubt it. Check out little video they did for Vanity Fair. He seems rather oblivious to it all and is just a normal little kid who can barely sit in his chair for an interview.

Rumor has it the kid who played Danny in The Shining had no idea what was going on. He thought they were shooting something funny.
