00:00When Zack approached you with playing this role of Korra, what made you want to be a part of it and be a part of this movie?
00:05So many elements. First of all, to play my first leading role ever and because I love the script.
00:11I thought it was such a rich and magical and fun, but also very deep characters that have very tormented lives
00:23and they're aiming to overcome them and hopefully we'll all succeed.
00:28And of course working with Zack. He's incredible. He's right here. Don't say anything. No, I'm joking.
00:34But he's truly the best. He brought so much to me and the fact that he believed in me the way he did touched me so much.
00:43And he's someone who is truly an enthusiast and loves movies and movie making so much.
00:49And he only elevates and enhances everyone's talent so much around him.
00:56From cast to crew to everyone that he works with.
01:01What's the best part about working with Zack?
01:03The best part about working with Zack is his enthusiasm and the fun he brings on set.
01:09He's just, he's fun.
01:13I would turn my head left and right.
01:15He would play basketball and he loved putting those cans into the trash.
01:19And I'm here sweating, stressing out about my scene and wondering if I, if I know everything that I'm doing
01:25and if I'm going to be good enough.
01:27And he's there just having fun.
01:29I'm like, I might as well just relax also.
01:32And what sort of stunt and combat training did you have to do before filming started?
01:35I did a lot.
01:37I did, well, to condition myself, I did a lot of Pilates.
01:41I studied with, I mean, I trained with this woman, Liana, from Format Pilates.
01:45And I did a lot of just normal working out with this guy, Alessandro, who's actually his ex-trainer.
01:53And I did also a bit of Tracy Anderson.
01:56A lot of cold plunges for recovery, diet, strict dieting, and a lot of gun training.
