In a recent interview, actor Barry Keoghan delves into the powerful and triumphant conclusion of Emerald Fennell’s film “Saltburn,” now streaming on Amazon’s Prime Video. Keoghan, whose compelling performance has captivated audiences, unveils that the film’s original ending took a different turn, devoid of the now-iconic scene.
In the revelation, Keoghan shares that the initial script featured a concluding sequence where his character, Oliver, was portrayed “on his way to breakfast, where he is served runny eggs by the butler.” This alternate ending aimed to pay homage to a prior scene in the film.
As “Saltburn” gains traction on Prime Video, Keoghan’s insights provide a glimpse into the creative choices that shaped the film’s final moments, ultimately leading to the impactful and memorable conclusion that audiences are now experiencing.
