If you get to do Masters of the Universe, will Brit play She-Ra?
[Laughs] I’m not doing Masters of the Universe.
Definitely not?
Definitely not.
Are those the kinds of big movies you got into filmmaking to do though?
No. The big movies that I got into film to do are movies that have spectacle but meaning. I don’t know if you’ve ever read that script.
The Masters script? I haven’t.
It was ultimately a story about brothers which is really kind of interesting, and brothers coming to war with one another, kind of a Cain and Abel story.
How did you end up meeting on that and even being in consideration?
Sony contacted my agents. It was my favorite toy growing up, so I was like, “Hell yeah, I’ll meet.???
Mine too!
I kinda wanted to learn about what they were doing. It’s your favorite too but you didn’t get to read the script. I did. I got a super password protected one, but I certainly wanted to engage just to see what they were going to do, but they didn’t offer it to me. They just had a conversation with me.
