00:00There's so much anticipation leading up to this new film.
00:03What are you most excited for fans to see?
00:05I'm most excited for fans to see Lara Jean kind of come into her own a little bit more
00:10and kind of find her voice and her confidence and grow.
00:16And then I'm excited for people to see Jordan because I think he's amazing.
00:20In what ways has your character Lara Jean changed from the first film to the second?
00:25In what ways has she stayed the same?
00:29In what ways has she stayed the same?
00:31Her style is just as eccentric as the first.
00:37And her anxiety is still there and she still very much lives in her head.
00:45And it's constant running dialogue in her head.
00:49And things that I think are different is that she just kind of harnesses her voice a little bit more.
00:55And she is more okay with taking up space.
00:59Because I feel like in the first movie she was much more quiet and kind of drawn into herself.
01:05And I think in the sequel she just takes up a little bit more space.
01:08And she's just growing as a young woman and it's exciting to see.
01:10So yeah.
01:13There's a few new faces in the film.
01:16Most notably Jordan Fisher.
01:18Tell me what it was like working with him and what makes him the perfect John Ambrose.
01:23Listen.
01:24He is the perfect John Ambrose.
01:26He is.
01:26We read with so many people.
01:30And all shapes and sizes and colors.
01:33And he was.
01:35I talk about this all the time.
01:37When I read with Noah when we chemistry read in the first movie.
01:39I knew.
01:41As soon as I read with him I knew.
01:43That's Peter Kavinsky.
01:44This is the connection that I know.
01:46That's him without a doubt.
01:48I had that same feeling when I read with Jordan.
01:50And I didn't have that.
01:51He was the only person I fell out with.
01:53He is just so charismatic.
01:55And he said in the chemistry.
01:56He said.
01:57I just want to give John Ambrose a hug.
02:00And I was like.
02:01And that was even before he read.
02:03And I was like.
02:03That's it.
02:04That's who I thought John Ambrose was.
02:06Is someone that I just wanted to give a hug.
02:07And to love.
02:08And he's just amazing.
02:10And he's so kind and charismatic.
02:11And joyful.
02:14And he's just wonderful.
02:16And I can't wait for everyone to see him.
02:18His work.
02:19Because like the moment he comes on screen.
02:21You're like.
02:22Yeah.
02:23So it's awesome.
02:25Another new face.
02:26What was it like working with Holland Taylor?
02:29Ah.
02:30Legend.
02:31Icon.
02:31Icon.
02:32She's amazing.
02:33She is.
02:34I mean.
02:34She is just a seasoned professional.
02:37And it was just really refreshing.
02:39Because.
02:41She kind of represents this.
02:43Kind of female.
02:44Like older female.
02:45Kind of a mother figure.
02:47Because Lara Jean lost her mother.
02:49And she doesn't have that kind of like.
02:51Mother figure in her life.
02:53And so.
02:53Working with Holland was so amazing.
02:55Because one.
02:56It was just like.
02:57A lesson in acting.
02:59Every single day.
03:00And she's so connected.
03:00And she's so present.
03:02And so funny.
03:03And questions everything.
03:05And that was just so refreshing to see.
03:08And awesome.
03:08And.
03:09And she was just very very giving.
03:11Like.
03:12You know.
03:13We spent.
03:14Long hours together.
03:16And everything.
03:17She's just giving.
03:18She's a giving actress.
03:19And I hope.
03:20Like.
03:20Like.
03:20I love her career.
03:22And I.
03:22I hope I get to work.
03:23As long as she does.
03:24That she has.
03:25But.
03:25It's just really inspiring.
03:27To see someone.
03:27That's.
03:28So.
03:29Incredible.
03:31You filmed.
03:31The second.
03:32And third.
03:33Films.
03:33Back to back.
03:34What was it like.
03:35Reuniting with everyone.
03:36And spending all that time.
03:37With them.
03:39Oh man.
03:40We did do it.
03:41Back to back.
03:42Two and three.
03:42Um.
03:43It was like.
03:43Coming home.
03:45Because.
03:47You know.
03:47The first movie.
03:48Like.
03:49The exposure.
03:50Of the first movie.
03:50Was.
03:51We didn't realize.
03:53That that was going to happen.
03:54And so.
03:55All of a sudden.
03:56All of our lives.
03:56Were shot into kind of a whirlwind.
03:58And.
03:59So.
04:00The first table read.
04:02When we were all back together again.
04:03Was like.
04:04A big sigh of relief.
04:06Because it was all on common ground.
04:08And we were all together.
04:09Before anything happened.
04:10So it felt like coming home.
04:12And.
04:13You know.
04:14Even though.
04:15We did one.
04:16Two.
04:16And three.
04:17In a fairly short.
04:18Period of time.
04:19It's only been.
04:20Like two years.
04:22I think.
04:22Like.
04:22All together.
04:24We've all grown.
04:25So much.
04:26As individuals.
04:26And our characters.
04:27Are also growing as well.
04:28So being able to watch.
04:30Each other grow up.
04:30As our characters.
04:31Are growing up.
04:32Was really really cool.
04:33As well.
04:35Um.
04:36To all the boys.
04:37Isn't your typical.
04:38Teen rom-com.
04:39What do you think.
04:40Makes this story.
04:41So appealing.
04:42Um.
04:43I think it's.
04:44I think.
04:45What makes it so appealing.
04:46Is.
04:47It's kind of like.
04:48Drinking.
04:49Like.
04:49A warm cup of chicken noodle soup.
04:51On a rainy day.
04:52Like.
04:53It's just.
04:53A comforting.
04:55Relatable.
04:56Um.
04:56The world.
04:57That we've built.
04:58Looks.
04:58And represents.
05:00The world.
05:00And the way that it looks.
05:01Out in the real world.
05:02Which is awesome.
05:04Um.
05:04Um.
05:04So I think that.
05:05You know.
05:05People can see.
05:06They believe it more.
05:07Because it just looks.
05:08It's colorful and beautiful.
05:09Just like.
05:10Our.
05:10Our world.
05:11Um.
05:12And I.
05:12I think that.
05:13If there's a softness.
05:15Goes back to the chicken noodle soup.
05:16And that comfort.
05:17There's a softness to the movie.
05:19Um.
05:20That.
05:21Is like.
05:22Palpable.
05:22And when you watch it.
05:24You can't help to.
05:25Have your heart.
05:26Like.
05:28Melt a little.
05:29And.
05:30It's easy to have.
05:31Like a cold.
05:32Hard heart.
05:33Today.
05:34And so.
05:35Like.
05:35To have that.
05:36Kind of melt a little.
05:37I felt that.
05:38And I hope other people felt that.
05:40But.
05:41That's.
05:42People didn't realize.
05:43They need.
05:43They needed to giggle.
05:45Like.
05:45When do we giggle in real life.
05:47A lot.
05:47Like.
05:47On our day to day.
05:48And you do that in the movie.
05:49And you kind of like.
05:50Feel like you had a warm cup of soup.
05:51So.
05:52Yeah.
05:52I think it's just.
05:53It's soft.
05:54And it.
05:54Breaks people down a little bit.
05:57What do you hope audiences will feel.
06:00Or take away from the film.
06:02I hope that they take away.
06:04That.
06:05Whatever.
06:06You.
06:07Choose to do.
06:09With your body.
06:10At whatever time.
06:11And.
06:12With whomever.
06:13That's your choice.
06:14I hope they take that away.
06:16And I hope they also take away.
06:19I hope they.
06:21I know that they'll.
06:22I know that they'll.
06:23Love the love triangle.
06:23I hope that they.
06:25I.
06:25I hope that they laugh.
06:26A ton.
06:27At Kitty.
06:27Because I think she's so.
06:30I know they will.
06:31I know they will.
06:33And finally.
06:34Are you team Peter.
06:35Or team John.
06:36No.
06:37I hate this question.
06:38Um.
06:39I.
06:39I.
06:39I'm very happy.
06:40I.
06:41I.
06:41I want to say.
06:43I'm team.
06:43I'm team.
06:44I'm team Lara Jean.
06:45That's my answer.
06:46I want to say.
06:47Okay.
