“I read a bunch of scripts and there were a few that I liked,” she told the Daily News. “But this is the first one that I read that I thought, ‘I can’t not do this movie.’ I loved it so much, and the only reason I wouldn’t want to do the movie was because I wanted to see it as an audience member and I wouldn’t want to ruin the ending!
