"When you're working at that sort of level, it's peak and it challenges you to be the best you can," Matthew Lillard tells EW of sharing the screen with the actress.

00:00Ladies and gentlemen, if you don't know me, I've been around for literally 78 years.
00:04And every now and then you catch an actor or actress in their prime, and with a part
00:09of a lifetime, and I feel like that's Sam right now in Carrie.
00:13Her work's incredible, she's ultra prepared, and comes with this ferocity of work that
00:21as an actor all you have to do is receive the energy and throw it back.
00:25And when you're working at that sort of level, it's peak, and it challenges you to be the
00:31best you can.
00:32So for me, that scene isn't about being funny or dramatic, it's really about seeing another
00:37artist at their height and doing your best to keep up.
