I mean, you know, listen, it was not us. 92 00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:14,720 Speaker 2: A couple of years ago, when I was promoting Miracles 93 00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:16,599 Speaker 2: from Heaven, which is a film I produced before I 94 00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:20,039 Speaker 2: produced The Star, I was on TVN and on that 95 00:05:20,160 --> 00:05:23,400 Speaker 2: program there was a Smith family, Joyce Smith and John 96 00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:26,840 Speaker 2: Smith and pastor Jason Noble, and they were telling their story. 97 00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:30,080 Speaker 2: And when I heard that Joyce prayed John back to 98 00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:33,440 Speaker 2: life after he died falling through a frozen lake, I said, 99 00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:35,720 Speaker 2: this is unbelievable. I mean, in the medical record it 100 00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:38,560 Speaker 2: says patient dead and mother prayed patient came back to life. 101 00:05:38,680 --> 00:05:41,880 Speaker 2: And once I heard that, I knew that I had 102 00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:44,120 Speaker 2: to bring this to the big screen. And that was 103 00:05:44,160 --> 00:05:46,440 Speaker 2: just about three years ago. And you know, there is 104 00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:49,640 Speaker 2: no movie without a star, and there was no other 105 00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:51,640 Speaker 2: star that could do the role of Joyce but for 106 00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:54,360 Speaker 2: Chrissy Metz. And when she said yes, that was the 107 00:05:54,400 --> 00:05:57,840 Speaker 2: process that really allowed us to make the film. And 108 00:05:58,279 --> 00:06:02,320 Speaker 2: we're just hoping that audiences around the world are inspired. 109 00:06:01,839 --> 00:06:06,719 Speaker 1: By our podcast.

Now let's get back to the 126 00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:06,160 Speaker 1: conversation we were just having. So, Chrissy, what was your 127 00:07:06,200 --> 00:07:09,479 Speaker 1: gut reaction when you first heard about Joyce or read 128 00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:12,920 Speaker 1: the script? What happened in your in your heart? 129 00:07:13,200 --> 00:07:15,840 Speaker 3: You know, I thought, oh am I capable of doing this? 130 00:07:16,880 --> 00:07:19,240 Speaker 3: I mean, that's always sort of the question. I don't 131 00:07:19,240 --> 00:07:21,040 Speaker 3: want to do something if I you know. Of course, 132 00:07:21,080 --> 00:07:22,320 Speaker 3: my ego is like if you don't do it well, 133 00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:25,360 Speaker 3: then don't do it at all. But also there's a 134 00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:29,440 Speaker 3: lot of growth to have been had, and so I 135 00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:32,720 Speaker 3: I just sort of how to sit with with myself 136 00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:35,440 Speaker 3: and my thoughts and pray about it and you know, 137 00:07:35,520 --> 00:07:38,320 Speaker 3: ask for guidance or advice from you know, my team. 138 00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:41,840 Speaker 3: And I was attached to another project at the time 139 00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:43,760 Speaker 3: that wasn't really going to allow me to be a 140 00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:48,560 Speaker 3: part of both, and then that fell through and I thought, okay, okay, 141 00:07:49,040 --> 00:07:51,960 Speaker 3: everything I already knew was just confirmed because everything just 142 00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:56,480 Speaker 3: fell into place. So, you know, trusting your gut is 143 00:07:56,800 --> 00:07:58,800 Speaker 3: is a hard thing to do, especially in Hollywood, I think, 144 00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:01,520 Speaker 3: but yeah, it just it was the right thing. 145 00:08:01,520 --> 00:08:06,280 Speaker 1: It was meant to be obviously, so it got to 146 00:08:06,320 --> 00:08:09,840 Speaker 1: me on many levels, obviously as a mom, but also 147 00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:15,200 Speaker 1: as a mom who has adopted kids, because that's a 148 00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:17,400 Speaker 1: piece of the story. I don't know how many people 149 00:08:17,440 --> 00:08:21,280 Speaker 1: are going to talk about, but we need to talk 150 00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:27,600 Speaker 1: about that because you playing Joyce the mom, are praying 151 00:08:27,640 --> 00:08:31,880 Speaker 1: back your son John, who you adopted. And I think 152 00:08:31,920 --> 00:08:34,600 Speaker 1: a lot of times when well, I know, when people 153 00:08:34,640 --> 00:08:36,440 Speaker 1: talk to me about my children, they're like, well, which 154 00:08:36,440 --> 00:08:37,640 Speaker 1: ones are your real children? 155 00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:39,079 Speaker 3: All of them? 156 00:08:39,559 --> 00:08:41,560 Speaker 2: Right, they're all your yeah? Yeah. 157 00:08:41,559 --> 00:08:44,600 Speaker 1: And the character, the role you play, you make it 158 00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:48,600 Speaker 1: very very clear and all of us adoptive moms are 159 00:08:48,640 --> 00:08:49,440 Speaker 1: saying thank you. 160 00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:51,839 Speaker 3: Yeah. 161 00:08:51,920 --> 00:08:55,920 Speaker 1: The level of love and intimacy and commitment and just 162 00:08:56,160 --> 00:09:00,840 Speaker 1: undying love you have for that child mountains. 163 00:09:01,600 --> 00:09:01,840 Speaker 2: Yeah. 164 00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:03,160 Speaker 3: Well that's Joyce Smith for him. 165 00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:05,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, that is how she really is in 166 00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:10,600 Speaker 2: real life. I mean, just a powerhouse, doesn't take no 167 00:09:10,720 --> 00:09:13,840 Speaker 2: for an answer, but she does it with love and 168 00:09:13,880 --> 00:09:15,480 Speaker 2: the way that she loved John. I mean, that's really 169 00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:17,000 Speaker 2: one of the reasons why I wanted to do the 170 00:09:17,080 --> 00:09:19,440 Speaker 2: movie was when I found out that, you know, she 171 00:09:19,559 --> 00:09:22,160 Speaker 2: had adopted him, her and her husban Brian adopted him 172 00:09:22,160 --> 00:09:24,720 Speaker 2: when he was six months old from Guatemala, and you know, 173 00:09:24,920 --> 00:09:27,040 Speaker 2: just the idea that he struggled with, why wasn't he 174 00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:29,520 Speaker 2: wanted And you know, she would try to affirm that, 175 00:09:29,640 --> 00:09:31,800 Speaker 2: but it wasn't until he went through this incident and 176 00:09:31,880 --> 00:09:33,560 Speaker 2: came out on the other side of it and saw 177 00:09:33,559 --> 00:09:35,240 Speaker 2: that it was his mother's prayers and the prayers of 178 00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:37,760 Speaker 2: the community and the love of the community and his 179 00:09:37,840 --> 00:09:40,240 Speaker 2: mother that really helped save his life. That he began 180 00:09:40,320 --> 00:09:42,280 Speaker 2: to understand that he had a purpose in a place. 181 00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:45,120 Speaker 2: And I think that's just so powerful and we really 182 00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:47,760 Speaker 2: wanted to portray it in the way that they experienced it, 183 00:09:47,880 --> 00:09:50,800 Speaker 2: and we're just grateful that Joyce and John really feel 184 00:09:50,840 --> 00:09:51,440 Speaker 2: like we got it right. 185 00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:56,400 Speaker 1: So how much backlash Devone did you get when you said, well, 186 00:09:56,400 --> 00:09:58,120 Speaker 1: you've been doing this for a long time. You've been 187 00:09:58,160 --> 00:10:03,079 Speaker 1: getting backlash because you have been involved with movies, powerful 188 00:10:03,120 --> 00:10:08,600 Speaker 1: movies about miraculous faith since your career began. But when 189 00:10:08,640 --> 00:10:11,760 Speaker 1: you said, Okay, Christy, let's do this, did you guys 190 00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:15,480 Speaker 1: get you know, backlash from people or are people being 191 00:10:15,480 --> 00:10:16,280 Speaker 1: really supportive? 192 00:10:16,640 --> 00:10:19,280 Speaker 2: You know? I mean as far as I don't really 193 00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:23,040 Speaker 2: read comments and whatnot, but from what I can tell 194 00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:25,880 Speaker 2: you having screened the film and been across the country 195 00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:28,920 Speaker 2: in multiple screenings with all different types of audiences, there 196 00:10:28,920 --> 00:10:32,200 Speaker 2: have been any backlash. I mean, people love Chrissy Metz, 197 00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:35,600 Speaker 2: They love her portrayal of Joyce. It is so emotional. 198 00:10:35,880 --> 00:10:38,880 Speaker 2: No matter what your faith journey is, you can find 199 00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:42,240 Speaker 2: something relatable in Breakthrough. I think we all, you know, 200 00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:44,440 Speaker 2: are searching for our place. We all want love, and 201 00:10:44,480 --> 00:10:47,959 Speaker 2: so there really hasn't been that kind of backlash. And 202 00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:50,640 Speaker 2: when people see Breakthrough, I mean they I think it's 203 00:10:50,679 --> 00:10:53,720 Speaker 2: all worth it. So whatever conflict there may be, or 204 00:10:53,760 --> 00:10:57,120 Speaker 2: whatever backlash may come, it's all worth it because they 205 00:10:57,120 --> 00:10:59,640 Speaker 2: are lives that will be changed for the better because 206 00:10:59,679 --> 00:11:00,559 Speaker 2: of a film. I don't like it. 207 00:11:01,160 --> 00:11:03,560 Speaker 1: So, Chrissy, I got to ask you after watching you 208 00:11:03,640 --> 00:11:07,600 Speaker 1: for hundreds of hours on three seasons of This Is Us, 209 00:11:08,280 --> 00:11:14,560 Speaker 1: where your character sometimes is a little self centered. Yeah, 210 00:11:14,720 --> 00:11:17,440 Speaker 1: I was so happy to find out, because I after 211 00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:20,360 Speaker 1: I watched the first season, I researched you, like at 212 00:11:20,440 --> 00:11:24,000 Speaker 1: nauseam to find out that that you are not that character, 213 00:11:24,080 --> 00:11:26,880 Speaker 1: but you play her very well. But the character you 214 00:11:27,520 --> 00:11:32,600 Speaker 1: play in the movie Breakthrough Joyce is so other focused 215 00:11:33,160 --> 00:11:36,920 Speaker 1: and yet both characters you play with such tenacity. 216 00:11:37,360 --> 00:11:38,120 Speaker 3: Well, thank you. 217 00:11:38,640 --> 00:11:42,360 Speaker 1: So I'm guessing that tenacity is the real Chrissy Metz. 218 00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:46,480 Speaker 3: Yes, I mean I didn't pursue acting for twelve years 219 00:11:46,480 --> 00:11:49,600 Speaker 3: of eating ramen noodles without that tenacity, you. 220 00:11:49,559 --> 00:11:51,839 Speaker 1: Know, And I know one hundred and one way to 221 00:11:51,880 --> 00:11:54,880 Speaker 1: cook ramen noodles, by the way, you know, let me 222 00:11:54,920 --> 00:11:58,840 Speaker 1: tell you, after you've been fired twelve times in radio, 223 00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:02,199 Speaker 1: you you and your ramen noodle recipes. 224 00:12:02,320 --> 00:12:06,080 Speaker 3: Right, and then it's very delicious. Yeah, absolutely, But yeah, 225 00:12:06,120 --> 00:12:10,760 Speaker 3: you have to be tenacious in that pursuit. And I 226 00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:14,640 Speaker 3: always was really cognizant of why was I doing it? 227 00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:17,560 Speaker 3: Because it wasn't about fame and fortune. That's sort of just. 228 00:12:17,440 --> 00:12:19,800 Speaker 1: Like a nice byproduct. 229 00:12:19,920 --> 00:12:22,839 Speaker 3: Yeah, but like what is it that I'm supposed to 230 00:12:22,880 --> 00:12:26,160 Speaker 3: be doing? And how do I How am I an instrument? 231 00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:27,319 Speaker 3: And how am I a conduit? 232 00:12:27,440 --> 00:12:31,360 Speaker 1: And so so answer that question with this movie, how 233 00:12:31,400 --> 00:12:33,480 Speaker 1: are you a conduit? What do you feel God called 234 00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:33,880 Speaker 1: you to do? 235 00:12:35,080 --> 00:12:40,400 Speaker 3: I think to portray Joyce and and this Smith family, 236 00:12:40,559 --> 00:12:44,200 Speaker 3: there's their story in how you know even in the 237 00:12:44,240 --> 00:12:47,680 Speaker 3: most uncertain times, that you you can ask for what 238 00:12:47,720 --> 00:12:50,080 Speaker 3: it is that you want and that you need. And 239 00:12:50,120 --> 00:12:52,599 Speaker 3: I hope that is conveyed through through the message and 240 00:12:52,920 --> 00:12:55,640 Speaker 3: through the story because that's exactly what she did and 241 00:12:55,679 --> 00:12:56,960 Speaker 3: she had no qualms about it. 242 00:12:57,440 --> 00:13:00,199 Speaker 1: And do you think you'll carry that into your life? Oh? 243 00:13:00,240 --> 00:13:03,880 Speaker 3: I definitely have. I definitely have more show than I 244 00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:04,680 Speaker 3: ever have before. 245 00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:08,760 Speaker 1: Devon.
