00:00What did you think when they first came to you with it?
00:03I got a text from Aline Brush McKenna
00:05and it just said let me know what you think
00:07and I assumed as writers do to each other
00:10that she had written some pilot
00:11that she didn't love enough to showrun
00:14and was trying to get me to do it
00:15and I was like okay whatever it is sure
00:18then she calls me and she's like
00:21you have to do this as Devil Wears Prada 2
00:23you play so and so
00:24all your scenes are with Meryl Streep
00:26I was like going to drop the phone you know
00:29so it was a pretty exciting overachievement
00:33for a call from a friend
00:34What does Mindy think of this? She must be so jealous
00:37I have never impressed Mindy Kaling more
00:40than being a part of her beloved franchise
00:43it's like if she pitched for the Boston Red Sox
00:45it's sort of that kind of thing for each other
00:49What was kind of your relationship with the first movie?
00:53I loved the first movie
00:54and to me the first movie is about excellence
00:56it's about the unpopular person
00:59Miranda Priestly
01:00who strives for excellence
01:02and is rude
01:03and is you know
01:05has a lot of quote unquote bad qualities
01:07but is standing up for something exceptional
01:10and I think that's why
01:11people love the movie so much
01:13and are so inspired by it
01:14and why so many like straight guys
01:17who aren't fashion people
01:18love that movie
01:20like myself
01:21And what's it like to be face to face with Miranda Priestly
01:25and actually get the real treatment?
01:27I mean it was amazing because
01:29I'm you know the one person in this whole universe
01:32of The Devil Wears Prada
01:34who has no respect for Miranda Priestly
01:37doesn't need her for anything
01:38thinks she's just kind of a difficult employee
01:42doesn't get it
01:43doesn't get it
01:43doesn't care
01:44and so to come face to face
01:46with this legend
01:48playing a legend
01:49and act like it's just some random
01:51it was a great great acting challenge
01:54and I just had to just
01:55turn off the part of my brain
01:57that was reverential
01:59and turn it back on when we wrapped
02:03when we wrapped in the video
02:03as we write
02:05as 1995
02:05so you canpoint
02:06and say
02:06and
02:06people
02:06that
02:06people maybe can't
