00:00I would love to know what made you want to be part of this project?
00:02The script. The script, the script, the script.
00:07The scene I'm in, I play Virginia, and she's an attorney.
00:11And it was initially a five-page monologue. They cut some of it out.
00:14And it was some of the most exciting, awesome words I've gotten to say.
00:21And it's a brilliant, brilliant monologue with such insight.
00:24And so it was the writing in that monologue specifically.
00:27Obviously, it was also Jonah Hill. It was Keanu Reeves. It was Matt Bomer.
00:31It was like, you want to be in great company when you do something like this.
00:35And I am in insanely amazing company.
00:39And just obsessed with Keanu Reeves and getting to work with him and get to know him a little bit.
00:46It's been a wonderful joy.
00:48How would you describe Jonah as a director?
00:53Fun, precise, exacting.
00:57And there's, there's, he's an actor, so he gives, so he knows how to talk to actors in our way.
01:04But he's also very, he's into the cinema of it as well.
01:09So he's also a director who is concerned about the lens.
01:13He's concerned about the frame, concerned about the lighting.
01:16Our GP was amazing.
01:18And the lighting in the film is wonderful.
01:20So he's a director who's, who's directing.
01:23Who's like all of those elements of what it makes, what makes a great film.
01:27Like a wonderful script that he could wrote with his friend Ezra.
01:31And then all the elements of a film.
01:34And it's just wonderful to, this is why I don't want to, I don't want to direct.
01:37Cause it's just so much.
01:39And he's just, there's just a love that he has for it.
01:43That you, that comes through.
01:44That's really exciting to witness.
01:47And this was a cast full of comedians, big stars.
01:49What was that like for you to be around all these standup comedians, honestly?
01:54Um, I was like, I want to be as funny as them.
01:57I was like, I'm funny too.
01:58But like, and like I would do, there were a few times I'd like do a little ad lib.
02:02And then Jonah would be like, no, no, it's okay.
02:06Oh, that's my girlfriend.
02:07Um, yeah, the, the comedians had it.
02:11Like I did my thing, but the comedians are comedians for a reason.
02:16Um, they, yeah, they get the laughs.
02:19I have a really funny line though, but I just, it was the way I delivered it.
02:23It was, I delivered it as written, but, um, I have a really funny moment too.
02:26So, um, it was inspiring and it made me competitive, which is nice and not,
02:32luckily I wasn't intimidated, but I was excited by it.
02:36The word you used earlier was perfect.
02:37That your character says juicy things.
02:39Oh my gosh.
02:40Yes.
02:40I can't wait for people.
02:42It's a, it's a good monologue.
02:43And at about.
02:44Oh.
02:44Wow.
02:44Oh.
02:48Wow.
