00:00 You're in jeans, you're in the world of jeans.

00:02 I know, pinch me.

00:03 I've been doing press work for the last month now and none of it is real, it's still surreal.

00:11 I feel unbelievably grateful to be here. I had the privilege of falling in love with

00:15 the movie as the rest of the world did when the first movie came out and so I kind of

00:19 feel like this is my, like a gift that I was given, I won the lottery. But yeah, this is

00:25 mad and the love is always mad for this movie and that's purely down to the first movie

00:30 so I feel a bit like I'm cheating really.

00:33 Let's talk about the princess. Do you love her? Why do you say yes?

00:37 I've never played a role like her before. I'm always drawn to very loud, opinionated,

00:43 bullsh*t women and while she may have that within her, I think I've done something that

00:48 is opposite to what I'd usually grab to and I was able to be on set for a short while

00:54 and I got to basically hang around with all these actors that I have idolised for such

00:59 a long time and I don't have any words. I can't believe I'm here and I can't believe

01:07 I get to celebrate this movie with all these people here.

01:10 The cast is quite phenomenal. What did you learn and things around them?

01:15 Everything. I think with every job that you do, you soak up every single nanosecond of

01:20 the cast and the crew that you get to be around and I think Denis led us to the exact feeling

01:28 we need to feel every day which was that we wanted to up the ante, we wanted to raise

01:32 the bar because everybody around us was rising that bar constantly so you really did... You

01:38 were eager to get to work every morning just to see what would happen and who you'd meet

01:42 and just to be around all of that greatness, truly, every day.

01:46 Why is he the perfect director?

01:49 Because he cares ultimately and all of this mad, crazy shit is in his head and actually

01:56 he is one of the most loving, beautiful, warm humans on this earth and you just completely

02:03 trust him in every single scene that you do so that's why.

02:07 And why should people see this? What's your message to the fans?

02:11 Do you love cinema? If you do, get to the cinemas. Done.
