00:00I'm a shade up. I'm a shade down. You're shade up? I mean, within reason. If other people on the
00:07flight are not shade up people, you know, you work with folks. So you adapt. That's nice. But if it's
00:12a default, for me, I want to see the world. Hey, I'm Halle Bailey. I'm Reggie Jean-Page, and we're
00:16here on set of our Hollywood Reporter cover shoot.
00:26Filming definitely changed the way that I think about traveling. I love that my character Anna was very impulsive and
00:32decided like that day, that second, she was going to go to Tuscany. And I think you need to live
00:36life like that and just go on a whim.
00:39Take bigger risks. Allow yourself to be the version of yourself you wish you were, you know? We did get
00:44to explore a little bit. You're a big adventurer, aren't you?
00:46I am. I'm a big adventurer, so I like to get out in nature. I went to a lot of
00:50hot springs and found some cool dance party places. It was fun.
00:55I feel like Halle found all the Tuscany secrets. I was slightly more reclusive. I got up super early in
00:59the mornings. I go for runs through the Tuscan hillside.
01:02I found that field where Russell Crowe runs his hand through the Wheaton Gladiator, and I was like, okay, I
01:06feel like I've been somewhere special now.
01:08What I found especially charming is you cannot separate the people from the food, from the culture, from the landscape.
01:13Prince, I know that you learned to make casio pepe, like, from scratch. Halle knows how to, like, roll it
01:17out from nothing.
01:18But how people make pasta will change region to region. And so I found exploring how all of that linked
01:23together really charming.
01:24I think we really do want to go back to Tuscany because, oh, it was so gorgeous.
01:29I mean, this isn't bad. I'll do nappa.
01:30Yeah. Beautiful.
01:39One of my favorite places that I've traveled that I always find myself yearning to go back to, it would
01:44definitely be St. Lucia.
01:47Like, wow. It's just, it seems like similar to Tuscany where you're just, you feel like you're not in a
01:53real place.
01:54Like, you're on a different planet, and the water is, like, so fresh, and the air feels crisper, and everything
02:00is just perfect over there.
02:02I would love to go back there.
02:03Yeah. The thing I got down in the South Island of New Zealand, just driving through this landscape, you'd go
02:08half an hour, an hour without seeing another car, this dramatic, rocky landscape, floral, snow, you get everything.
02:15I think I might be type A when it comes to planning a strict itinerary, when it comes to a
02:21vacation or someplace I'm traveling, because I really want to make the most of where I go.
02:27And me and Riga always laugh, because every other day, I'm just like, la-dee-da, my head is in
02:32the clouds, and that's just how I am.
02:33Every other way.
02:34Yes.
02:34Just pure chaos, until it comes to planning a trip.
02:37Exactly. Yeah, if I'm like, I have to see everything.
02:40Yeah, I think I'm the inverse. Like, every day-to-day, I'm actually pre-type A and pre-planned, and
02:45then once it comes to travel, I want to see where the wind takes me.
02:47Wow, I love that.
02:49Yeah.
02:57If this movie does what it's meant to do, you walk out of the theater thinking that everything in life
03:01is possible, you're booking tickets, you're planning your menus, you're getting the crew together to travel together.
03:07It should feel like community and possibility and love, which is what travel should feel like, if you do it
03:13right.
03:13Yeah.
