00:00How it feels to be the UK premiere in London, showing the UK audience for the first time?

00:03Oh my god, it feels so good. This is my first London premiere. I've never been to a London

00:09premiere. This is insane. Like, this is real cute. It's like a little build-out. This is nice. And the

00:15lighting's great. Lighting's amazing. So Paphidia is an absolute force of nature. What did you love

00:22about playing her? Oh my god, you know, I mean, as you can see, we may not agree with a lot of the

00:27things that Paphidia do, but I think one thing we can all collectively agree on is the fact that

00:31she's a badass. And she's just unapologetically herself, you know? And that's what I appreciate

00:35about playing her character, because you see, I'm confident and I'm boisterous, and so is she,

00:41you know? So it feels good to be able to play somebody that's unapologetically themselves.

00:45Incredible. Thank you. What about the people that you work with, filmmakers, and the talent on set?

00:50Have you got a highlight? I will not tell you. I'm so blessed. I'm so, I'm so blessed because to me,

00:57you know, walking in as a student, I'm just like a sponge, and I'm just taking everything in and

01:03just receiving everything. You know, it's just one big masterclass, and I appreciate it so much.

01:07You know, the gentle leadership, the mentorships, like, it's just, it's, it's, I'm like pinching

01:14myself. I think London is what really, it's like, oh, this is real. You get what I'm saying? Like,

01:19being here, it's like, oh, this is, this is really happening. Like, we're really only like a week and a

01:23half away from this masterpiece coming out, and I'm just happy and grateful and honored to be a part

01:30of it. And why should UK audiences go to the cinema from their sofa and see this film? Because it's so

01:35original, you know, and it's so raw, and it's so bold, and you get to laugh with it, you get to cry

01:40with it, you get to feel with it, you get to be angry with it. Like, it's just, it's the perfect movie.
