Osment, 36, revealed that his early work, including The Sixth Sense, prepared him for maintaining secrecy around major plot points in his latest movie.
Reflecting on his role in The Sixth Sense, Osment recalled the challenge of keeping the film's major twist under wraps due to the lack of studio guidelines and the less pervasive nature of the internet at the time.

Osment emphasized the importance of preserving the element of surprise for viewers, noting that the best movie experiences often come from going into a film with minimal prior knowledge. He expressed excitement about the audience's reactions to Blink Twice and hinted at the unexpected twists that await.
Praising Kravitz's directorial debut, Osment commended her ability to create a cohesive and comfortable working environment on set. He highlighted the strong ensemble cast of Blink Twice, which includes Channing Tatum, Naomi Ackie, and Christian Slater, among others.
Describing the filming process as akin to a summer camp due to the close bond formed among the cast, Osment emphasized the positive working dynamic fostered by Kravitz. He noted the collaborative and enjoyable atmosphere that translated into the on-screen chemistry of the actors.
Blink Twice is set to hit theaters on August 23, promising audiences a thrilling and suspenseful viewing experience. Osment's insights into the film's production and the camaraderie among the cast offer a glimpse into the creative process behind this highly anticipated movie.
