00:00Hi, nice to see you. How are you? It's okay. All right, tell me about what it was like for you to step into this world of A Simple Favor.

00:08I was really, really surprised and happy when Paul actually called me and asked me to be part of this project because I like him as a director.

00:19It was a blessing to work with all of those actors and great actors, great artists in the film. That was the main thing, actually.

00:30What was the process like creating the chemistry with Blake and Anna and the rest of the cast?

00:35I think it was very natural because, for example, me and Blake, we actually bond as quick as we saw each other.

00:48We became such great, great friends and actually it was so easy.

00:52Because when you become a friend with the person you're working with, it's easier to work with and Blake is one of them.

01:00Last thing I want to ask, The Housemaid coming up. What can you say about Enzo? Is it much different from the book? What can you tease?

01:06That's a good question. Enzo is a weirdo and I like to play weirdos, so as you know, he's a real weirdo.

01:19I think The Housemaid, the film, is going to be very faithful to the book, so that's all I can actually say.

01:29But at the same time, I'm proud of myself to be part of that project and being a weirdo.

01:36In another Paul Feig project.

01:38In another Paul Feig project, by the way, yeah.

01:41I love Paul. I love Paul and he's one of the most gentle person I've ever met in my life.

01:49Thank you so much. Have fun tonight.
