According to Nylon: "Sink was offered her role without an audition, having worked with director Destin Daniel Cretton on the 2017 film The Glass Castle, and she didn’t receive a script until she landed in London."

Sadie shared that with all the speculation about who she's playing in Spider-Man: Brand New Day (most fans predict that she'll play Jean Grey), she doesn't feel any pressure to keep the details under wraps. "You just don’t share the secret, it’s not that hard,” she laughed.
"I knew that Marvel was a big deal and had a big brand, especially Spider-Man,” Sadie continued. “I know there’s a huge fan base, but it feels really big. I think these blockbuster movies are a whole different beast."
"It was interesting stepping into that space and being a little bit of an outsider in that way, but he could not have been more welcoming, and just the whole crew in general,” Sadie said. “He was just so relaxed and open, and I felt very at ease.”
