00:00When speaking of strong female characters, you know, Lana, Bruiser's a guy in the original John Gerstorff novel.
00:05What did it mean for you to kind of take this very masculine role and make it your own, this,
00:09like, spicy kind of diva in a way?
00:11Honestly, it was an honor. I've never played a, you know, I've had the opportunity to be a part of
00:17a gender.
00:17You've never played a boy, Quifu?
00:18I've never, I've never played a man before.
00:21I've always been one of the boys, though, I have to say.
00:24Like, I'm still friends with my high school boys, and that's, like, 33 years now.
00:28And I'm the only girl in the group.
00:31So I feel really comfortable with boys, and it was easy.
00:35I mean, it was easy to step into her shoes.
00:37But then also, like, being a woman brings a whole different energy, and she's very maternal with Rudy.
00:44I want to say Milo, but also Milo.
00:47And then it's great with our dynamic as well, because we're very brother and sister with each other.
00:52So it was great.
00:54In fact, I can't see Bruiser as a man anymore.
00:56I mean, I know it exists on film with the Coppola film and, you know, Mickey Rourke and all.
01:01But I feel like it was the one role that you could gender bend, and it works.
