And we are going to be answering some questions for Fandango about the housemaid.

You know this is a live in position, right?

What was it like preparing for this character and what's the most surprising, strange thing you did to get ready for the role?

I don't think I did anything strange or out of the norm.

I tried to kind of talk through it with you and with Brandon and with Paul because there was different points at which I turned.

So it was just really mapping out where Nina was.

What costume did you wear that helped you find the character the most?

Well, Millie always wears, like, the same big, huge jacket.

It's like the brown, like, secondhand leather jacket that she thrifted.

So I felt like whenever I put that on, I felt the most.

In a previous interview, you mentioned that playing unhinged is delicious and fun.

It's just funny and it's empowering and satisfying to go off the rails, like, let your energy out in a way that's just ridiculous.

Nothing was too ridiculous on this movie.

So I just felt the freedom that Paul was just like, go for it.

And when you hear that from him, you're just like, okay, I guess I can just kind of do anything.

What scene was the hardest to get through without laughing, even though it wasn't supposed to be funny?

Oh, I feel like there was a scene that I would keep laughing and I can't remember, I threw a few.

The one when I was coming down the steps and you guys are standing.

Okay, Booktok is going crazy for this movie.

What are you most excited for Booktok fans to experience from this film?

I'm excited for Booktok fans who experience, like, the enhance, like, everything we were able to enhance from, like, the best parts about the book to the movie.

And that's why we make movies out of, like, good books.

And, like, I feel like these booktok fans are just going to fall in love with these characters even more and see a whole new side of it.

And it's just exciting because I think we made it better, which is ideally, you know, so the point.

What was it like working with Brandon Skinar, who plays Andrew in the film?

I think that it was really cool seeing him play a character that's so vastly different from his show that he does and kind of put him in a complete different mindset.

And I don't think the audience has ever seen him play a character like this, which is cool.

What was your favorite note that director Paul Feig gave you on set?

I think just, like, get so close to her that you might even just.

We see a dollhouse in the movie that's not from the book.

I think it signifies Andrew's idea of a perfect home.

I'm not getting that deep because I don't want to give away too much.

And also, I don't know the full answer to this.

What's the one household chore you hate doing the most and love doing the most?

I also have a full barn that I have to clean.

Like, I didn't used to be able to do it, but

now I know how to do it without hurting my back.

What were your first impressions upon entering the Winchester mansion?
