I read the script and said to the director ‘I don’t hit her once?’ Out of reflex. That’s another hard thing, as Laura it’s easy. She’s pregnant with my child so I can’t touch her. Physically how does this compare to other roles? Are you kicking Jaz’s butt? Any man who was unfaithful was like ‘huh!’ I know all men did during Fatal Attraction (laughs). You don’t have to go through the exact same thing but there are things you can imagine in your own life going that way. You pull from … it doesn’t just have to be your own life, the circumstances in life that you, I think that’s why watching a movie is such an experience. It’s interesting, some times I’ve used stuff and then it just won’t work anymore and I have to go to something else. Certain things which have actually happened, some things I have to imagine. Yeah, there are things I pull form personally for sure. Is there anything you’re pulling from to draw this emotion? And then ya’ll are talking about it in the audience saying ‘that wasn’t funny.’ So it’s different because it has to be right. The problem with comedy is that if your timing is off it doesn’t work. But they’re both great and they both have their own … I think because I’m more of a naturally lovely person I have to go into things in a different space but I think you invest in everything. This is more in touch with your own emotional landscape. I have to hear everything because I don’t know what Kevin is going to say. I’m not a comedian and when you’re working with stand ups you have to be quick and you have to be alert so it’s a different kind of preparation. Comedy you have to be alert, when you work with comedians. It’s not more energy, it’s a different kind of energy. So it definitely feels different than when I’m making a comedy, you know what I mean? The movie takes place over the course of a year, so yeah, you’ve kind of got to go through what the character goes through even if you don’t want to. This is, I’d like to say I’m having fun, I am having fun, but I’ve never been so distraught in my life. I think I was serious in Law Abiding Citizen, some others that you’ve seen, it’s just that kind of the first thing … it’s interesting because it’s not like Best Man was comedic at all but because it was a role that was my first bigger piece, a breakout role, people certainly think of you as comedic. This is a serious role for you as opposed to comedic? So it’s good, he can tell me if I’m f***ing up … vice versa. I’m usually spending my time with Harold and he’s spending his time with Monica and the guys so this is a totally different thing but the friendship you have those sets is the same. And even though you know each other, I worked with him in the Best Man, I don’t ever have this kind of time with him. I’ve known Morris, it’s really comfortable, is what it is. It takes place at a lake house that Morris and I own and all of us are working today so it’s kind of a nice dramatic summation of everything.ĭoes it feel like a benefit to work with someone from a previous film like Best Man Holiday? Do you work off that previous relationship? Today I can say we’re filming something that is the culmination of a lot of the events of the movie. During the visit, we got an opportunity to talk with her about how When the Bough Breaks is different from her other films, portraying her character, and what she would like to do next with her career.Īnything you can tell us about what you’re filming today? Regina Hall plays Laura Taylor, the wife at the center of the narrative. Things take a turn for the worse when the surrogate, Anna (Jaz Sinclair), becomes obsessed with the father (Morris Chestnut), and husband and wife are forced to endure a sadistic game with their futures at stake. Back in March 2015, Screen Rant visited the set of the upcoming film When the Bough Breaks, which tells the story of a married couple who hire a surrogate mother to have their baby.
