00:14What surprised you most while working with NASA astronauts?
00:18So what surprised me most about working with you?
00:21Yes, with the one.
00:24You made me feel like any question I had was a good question.
00:28And it was good to get to know the human side of being an astronaut.
00:34Well, you asked a lot of good questions, and I appreciated you getting to the human side of it.
00:38Oh, good.
00:39Because that's why we do it, human spaceflight.
00:42Yeah.
00:45All right.
00:45What do you relate to most about your character, Commander Lewis?
00:50What do I relate to about Commander?
00:52I like disco.
00:54I was hoping you'd say that.
00:56I like all music.
00:58I do like some disco.
01:04And I like Three's Company and Happy Days.
01:08And also I like that her group, her crew, is a family to her.
01:14You know, they're one unit.
01:16And that's important to me is having an ensemble, that kind of group.
01:20That's spoken very Commander-like of you.
01:22Well, thank you.
01:23I don't know that I'd be able to be very good at giving people orders, but...
01:26Well, you played it off well, I think.
01:29Thank you very much.
01:31All right.
01:31What do you hope people take away from your character, Commander Lewis?
01:36You know what would be great is if there is a little girl who watches the film and then says,
01:40Oh, I want to do that.
01:42You know what I mean?
01:42Like, we're not at the point yet where we're doing manned missions to Mars.
01:47But, like, how great would it be if there's a seven-year-old girl who goes to see the movie
01:51and says,
01:52I want to be a commander on a space mission or, you know, I want to be an astronaut and
01:59explore.
02:00We love you so much.
02:03I'll tell you what.
02:04I told my husband when we watched the trailer and how exciting that was.
02:08And, of course, I'm studying it for the Commander Lewis part.
02:12And I told him, I said, she makes me want to be an astronaut.
02:14Aww.
02:15That's really insane.
02:15Really.
02:16It was exciting to see that portrayed.
02:20And I got motivated myself.
02:22So the little girl in me came out.
02:23Well, you're already doing it.
02:25Well, you maybe want to keep doing it.
02:27Okay, good.
02:27Because, you know, even though I say my feet are firmly planted on the ground,
02:32I'm like, I hang around you and I go,
02:34Mmm, that does seem like fun.
