00:56Awful friend.

00:58In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter,

01:00the British actress revealed that her audition process for the part was quite speedy.

01:04She said,

01:05I literally just did one audition tape for this.

01:07I didn't really have an in-person audition.

01:09We didn't do any screen tests.

01:11I couldn't travel at the time because I was pregnant and Tom was in New York on Broadway.

01:15So it was a very quick process.

01:16But I think director Kate Herron was pretty keen on me doing it after I read for the part.

01:20And from what she told me,

01:21she said that everyone agreed that I'd be the best person for the job.

01:24So that was nice, wasn't it?
