Zach revealed he was inspired to write A good person during the COVID-19 lockdown after the death of his father and sister, as well as his close friend Nick Cordero.
“I wanted to tell the story because I felt those emotions. I lost a bunch of people in my life who were very important to me,” Zach said during a Q&A in London, according to Variety. “We were in confinement and it was time to write. I mean, there was nothing to do but start a script because that’s what I wanted to do, that’s what I love to do, and I wanted to write something for Florence, and that’s kind of what stuck out to me.

Zach wrote, directed and produced A good person. This film marks his third feature film after garden condition And I would have loved to be there. A good person also shows his love for South Orange, New Jersey, which happens to be Zach’s hometown.
Florence and Zach were dating and living together when Zach was writing the screenplay for A good person. They have since separated but remain friends. The Oscar-nominated actress revealed that Zach was inspired by her personality while creating the character of Allison.
“He knows how I talk, he knows how I give a shit about people and I think he just put that in his script and I was allowed to come in and fill in where needed,” he said. she said during the question-and-answer session. “But reading something dedicated to you and written by someone who knows you so well is a wonderful gift.”
Florence does not shy away from playing emotionally demanding roles (i.e. Midsommar, Lady MacbethAnd wonderment). “It’s no secret that I only choose very intense roles,” she added. “This isn’t the first time I’ve been reduced to tears at just about every scene I’ve been in. I love finding ugliness in humans. I like to be raw. I love being given a script that challenges me and I’ve never chosen a role unless I’m afraid of it. And he was someone who knew me, knew my potential and wanted to work with me. I think it would have been weird if he wrote a Nancy Meyers thing for me to be like, “So… you’re not going to cry in this movie. I’d be like, ‘Oh my God!’ “
