Inde Navarrette has two Egyptian eye tattoos, and she says they turned up on the One Wish Willow box in Obsession before she was ever cast as Nikki Freeman.
The way she tells it, the box was designed and pre-made before she signed on. She only noticed the overlap on a Zoom with writer-director Curry Barker, who stopped and asked, “What’s on your hand?” He then showed her the box she had never seen, with matching marks running down the sides.
The look of the One Wish Willow was shaped with help from Barker’s mother, who works as a graphic designer. Packaging designer Amy Evans-Vega has said an Eye of Ra stays fixed in the art as a nod to chaos and destruction.
Navarrette has brought the coincidence up more than once. She told USA Today her tattoos were already on the box, and on Jimmy Kimmel Live she pointed to them, said she had them before the movie, and asked, “Isn’t that crazy?”
When the Gala interviewer told her the match looked like it was meant for her, she agreed: “Yeah.” And, “Absolutely.”
