the channel 355 comes from you know one of the consultants on our movie um who we can't even
reference because she actually um is herself living a um let's call it secret life um but
one of our consultants uh knows everything about um being a field agent operative and she told
us about this term it's a term that's used today still often is a slang term for a female operative
field operative special agent and where it comes from is originally during the american revolution
george washington used a or more than one female spy and as opposed to the male spies whose names
were and likey himself whose names were emblazoned on you know our money and mount rushmore and
the history books the female agents were never known they didn't want their names to be known
because it wasn't something that was considered um ladylike or a world for women and so they
simply got the moniker of 3x5 and that's where it comes from
grassy is played by premier league cruz and she is a colombian psychologist
who works for um the colombian director of intelligence their cia but she's not someone
who's a field agent at the beginning of the film she's actually someone who is a psychologist
who sits in an office back in columbia and when agents come back from being in the field
she analyzes um them and she uh she tries to help them through their post traumatic stress and and
whatever else they have to deal with and for the first time she is forced because of circumstances
to be out in the field herself and have to deal with the trauma that she's only really heard about
and it is traumatic for her initially but over the span of the film i think she starts to actually
become more and more competent maybe even get a little bit of a taste for it uh and and so i
guess i would say she's the eyes and ears of the movie for us now she'll never make it out alive
the character of luis played by edgar ramirez is a colombian field agent um who has gone rogue he's
he's someone who at the beginning of the film has taken this object this relief potentially
deadly massively deadly um weapon and um he's willing to sell to the highest bidder
he does have a conscience he has more nuance and complexity to him
but he's just a guy who i think is a family back home and doesn't know you know from day to day
if he's gonna live or die and see is this this this opportunity um to get out of this
life and to you know uh provide for his family financially i'm here and then i go there how's
just someone who um one has great creative ideas obviously um both as an actress and as a
storyteller but also is as driven as the character she plays um and uh like her character um
any boundary any no any challenge um is not um something that
she takes as a no it's something she takes as um you know i guess uh like i say a challenge um and
so having her on your side is an extraordinary thing because she's just uh so strong and driven
and um focused and determined and for me as the director um that's the kind of producer you want
what a great behind the scenes that we have here for the 355. uh let me know down in the comments
