The AV Club spoke to the actress about her career and got her to touch on the film which opens in theaters January 25th. Beyond admitting she is “excited, but yet nervous to see what itll turn out to be,” Janssen talked about the challenges of her role.
“Yes, I suppose, although what I found to be the most challenging part about it is that I didnt have the freedom I normally felt as an actor. You have a team, literally, of people trailing your every move, because every time you open your mouth, something unglues and they need to be in there with a stick of glue to put it back together. So theres that restriction and limitation, which I found difficult to work with. And then, also, you know your own face in a way that certain things, when you act, work and dont work, and with that ugly makeup on your face, its a challenge. Like, how much or how little do you do, because the makeup does so much for you already? There were different challenges that came with it. But being that ugly, wow, that was a little new.”
