So 26 00:01:33,400 --> 00:01:35,200 Speaker 1: you're the one that's gonna have to be my punching 27 00:01:35,240 --> 00:01:39,480 Speaker 1: bag for a second. Because that Madonna song Like a 28 00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:43,520 Speaker 1: Prayer has been in my head for literally weeks. 29 00:01:44,240 --> 00:01:47,320 Speaker 2: I'm so sorry, Like I'm. 30 00:01:47,120 --> 00:01:50,640 Speaker 1: A dick did. It's on my playlist at the gym NonStop. 31 00:01:50,920 --> 00:01:53,920 Speaker 1: I put it on when I'm getting ready. I maybe 32 00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:56,800 Speaker 1: put it on at night, and like literally my husband's like, 33 00:01:57,200 --> 00:01:58,600 Speaker 1: it's enough, Like we're good. 34 00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:02,520 Speaker 2: Well, I'm glad you're enjoying it, you. 35 00:02:02,480 --> 00:02:05,880 Speaker 1: Know, Oh it's so good. Well. I love seeing you 36 00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:08,400 Speaker 1: in this Deep Pool and Wolverine movie. You've been such 37 00:02:08,480 --> 00:02:11,480 Speaker 1: a pivotal character for all of these films, such a 38 00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:15,000 Speaker 1: fan favorite character for so many people. Is it true 39 00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:17,280 Speaker 1: that for this film and maybe even the other ones, 40 00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:19,280 Speaker 1: you were only sent the scenes that you were in. 41 00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:22,680 Speaker 2: Yes, actually it was only this one. 42 00:02:22,880 --> 00:02:27,760 Speaker 3: I think Marvel is like very much secretive, especially about 43 00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:30,760 Speaker 3: this movie. But about all of their content. So this 44 00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:33,960 Speaker 3: one was like high security, you know, like I met 45 00:02:34,040 --> 00:02:37,600 Speaker 3: with Disney Marvel's security guy and they gave me the 46 00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:40,600 Speaker 3: rundown of what I can and cannot see or do, 47 00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:43,320 Speaker 3: and so yeah, this one was locked down. 48 00:02:43,360 --> 00:02:44,880 Speaker 2: I only saw the things that I was in. 49 00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:48,399 Speaker 3: I had no idea of anything else that was happening. 50 00:02:49,320 --> 00:02:52,240 Speaker 1: That's so wild. Were you trying to get information where 51 00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:54,399 Speaker 1: you're like, okay, someone like give me a little hint, 52 00:02:54,480 --> 00:02:56,640 Speaker 1: Ryan or Huart, like let me know what's happening, and 53 00:02:56,680 --> 00:02:58,000 Speaker 1: everybody just was like nope. 54 00:02:58,480 --> 00:02:58,639 Speaker 2: Yeah. 55 00:02:58,680 --> 00:03:01,960 Speaker 3: It's interesting because in one sense it's kind of helpful 56 00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:04,840 Speaker 3: to know what's going on in the movie for like 57 00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:08,480 Speaker 3: interview purposes. But then in the other sense, obviously there 58 00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:11,919 Speaker 3: are things that you can't say, and a lot of 59 00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:15,440 Speaker 3: the special appearances in this movie were like high key, 60 00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:19,000 Speaker 3: top priority secrets. So it's maybe was for the best 61 00:03:19,040 --> 00:03:21,919 Speaker 3: that I didn't know, so I had nothing to really 62 00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:24,600 Speaker 3: hide as far as like whenever I was being grilled, 63 00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:27,480 Speaker 3: But yeah, there was part of me that definitely wanted 64 00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:29,320 Speaker 3: to know a little bit more also just because I 65 00:03:29,440 --> 00:03:30,600 Speaker 3: was curious. 66 00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:32,799 Speaker 1: You know, yeah, I'm sure, I'm sure. And when you're 67 00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:36,560 Speaker 1: on set filming your scenes, does it feel I don't know, 68 00:03:36,760 --> 00:03:40,080 Speaker 1: more locked down than other sets do, or at that 69 00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:42,320 Speaker 1: point you can't really tell the difference. 70 00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:45,400 Speaker 3: Well, this one in particular, at least the scenes that 71 00:03:45,480 --> 00:03:49,920 Speaker 3: I shot were filmed in a studio, so it was 72 00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:53,000 Speaker 3: kind of already very much locked down, just as far 73 00:03:53,040 --> 00:03:56,760 Speaker 3: as you can't get onto the premises really without passing 74 00:03:56,760 --> 00:04:00,400 Speaker 3: through multiple layers of security. So that's definitely for the best. 75 00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:04,000 Speaker 3: But yeah, even since the first one, it's been pretty 76 00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:06,720 Speaker 3: heavy on lockdown, just because you know, there are a 77 00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:10,240 Speaker 3: lot of scenes that use like streets and that are 78 00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:14,440 Speaker 3: shot out in the open. So yeah, but they've definitely 79 00:04:14,520 --> 00:04:16,600 Speaker 3: locked down extra for this last one. 80 00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:19,400 Speaker 1: Well, it's important because you know, you don't want spoilers 81 00:04:19,440 --> 00:04:21,800 Speaker 1: and some end up coming out, but you want to 82 00:04:21,839 --> 00:04:24,200 Speaker 1: protect as much as you possibly can. So I totally 83 00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:28,280 Speaker 1: get that. This movie for an actor, is such a 84 00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:30,640 Speaker 1: dream to be a part of. I imagine let alone, 85 00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:32,960 Speaker 1: you know, the entire franchise that you get to be 86 00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:35,560 Speaker 1: a part of. So how did this all come to be? 87 00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:39,560 Speaker 1: Like what was that audition? Like what was the project call? 88 00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:41,440 Speaker 1: Did you know what you were going out for? 89 00:04:42,200 --> 00:04:47,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's interesting, I knew that I was auditioning for Deadpool. 90 00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:50,960 Speaker 3: I had no prior knowledge of who Deadpool was because 91 00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:53,680 Speaker 3: I wasn't really into comics beforehand. 92 00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:57,000 Speaker 2: So I knew that it was a superhero movie. 93 00:04:57,160 --> 00:05:00,280 Speaker 3: I knew that Ryan Reynolds was attached, But as far 94 00:05:00,320 --> 00:05:03,360 Speaker 3: as the information is what I got, Like for auditioning, 95 00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:07,000 Speaker 3: I knew I was auditioning for a character who had 96 00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:11,039 Speaker 3: a power and her name was Kathy, and that was 97 00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:13,760 Speaker 3: pretty much it. I think it was maybe like eight 98 00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:17,360 Speaker 3: to ten pages of just like some made up stuff 99 00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:19,839 Speaker 3: and yeah, just kind of went. 100 00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:21,480 Speaker 2: In there and did my thing and then. 101 00:05:21,760 --> 00:05:24,039 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's crazy to think, I think that was maybe 102 00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:27,760 Speaker 3: eight or nine years ago now. And yeah, it was 103 00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:30,440 Speaker 3: the first movie that I ever worked on, so I 104 00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:33,280 Speaker 3: was cast and it really just kinda pulled me into 105 00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:34,920 Speaker 3: what into acting? 106 00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:37,919 Speaker 1: That is so crazy? Can you imagine, like even hearing 107 00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:39,599 Speaker 1: you say that it was the first movie that you 108 00:05:39,680 --> 00:05:43,320 Speaker 1: worked on, that is such a rarity in this industry 109 00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:47,160 Speaker 1: and you get to be in this epic superhero film 110 00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:50,360 Speaker 1: for the audition, did you have to like show physicality too? 111 00:05:50,480 --> 00:05:53,360 Speaker 1: Because you kick some ass? Girl? I mean, you know 112 00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:56,640 Speaker 1: what you're doing, you know what? 113 00:05:56,720 --> 00:05:59,160 Speaker 2: Surprisingly I didn't. I just went in there. 114 00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:01,760 Speaker 3: And did you know, the reading of the scenes a 115 00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:04,320 Speaker 3: couple of times and was called back. But they definitely 116 00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:07,440 Speaker 3: put me through some training, some physical training I did, 117 00:06:07,480 --> 00:06:11,440 Speaker 3: like muay Thai training and also just general stunt training. 118 00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:14,960 Speaker 3: They have this gym in Vancouver for their stunt training 119 00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:17,719 Speaker 3: that was so fun to work in because they have 120 00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:21,159 Speaker 3: all of these wires and like, I didn't do too 121 00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:23,479 Speaker 3: much wirework, but I think that was my favorite part. 122 00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:25,359 Speaker 3: It was I was like trying to stay on the 123 00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:26,960 Speaker 3: wires during my training. 124 00:06:27,640 --> 00:06:30,240 Speaker 1: Wow, that's so badass.

But we do as 129 00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:45,080 Speaker 3: much as we can, just you know, for editing purposes. 130 00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:47,200 Speaker 2: It's easier if your face is on there. 131 00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:49,719 Speaker 1: You know, for sure for sure.

Did you have a favorite 135 00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:01,599 Speaker 1: moment throughout all three of these films for yourself that 136 00:07:01,640 --> 00:07:04,880 Speaker 1: you really were like, Okay, I'm kind of a badass. 137 00:07:05,440 --> 00:07:07,840 Speaker 2: I don't know.

I prepped the wrong scene. I'm freaking out, 181 00:08:57,760 --> 00:09:00,120 Speaker 3: you know it like I had. I'm pretty sure I 182 00:09:00,160 --> 00:09:03,199 Speaker 3: called my dad to have him talk me off a 183 00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:05,280 Speaker 3: ledge because I just was like, I feel like I 184 00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:09,800 Speaker 3: can't do this. And yeah, the imposter syndrome was very real. 185 00:09:10,120 --> 00:09:12,040 Speaker 3: But Ryan really helped me through a lot of that, 186 00:09:12,160 --> 00:09:14,839 Speaker 3: and the director Tim Miller on the first one. They 187 00:09:14,880 --> 00:09:18,040 Speaker 3: helped me to kind of chill, you know, and not 188 00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:19,280 Speaker 3: take it so seriously. 189 00:09:19,800 --> 00:09:21,960 Speaker 1: I mean, it's easier said than done.

So I'm just grateful for 293 00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:18,280 Speaker 3: having Deadpool in my life at all. And there are 294 00:14:18,280 --> 00:14:20,440 Speaker 3: some of the most fun things I've worked on to 295 00:14:20,480 --> 00:14:24,000 Speaker 3: this day, just all of the stunts and the huge crew, 296 00:14:24,120 --> 00:14:27,480 Speaker 3: and so yeah, I would be so honored to do 297 00:14:27,520 --> 00:14:29,440 Speaker 3: anything Deadpool related again in the future. 298 00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:32,160 Speaker 1: When you walk onto a set like this and it's 299 00:14:32,520 --> 00:14:35,520 Speaker 1: what I imagine larger than life, and you, like you said, 300 00:14:35,560 --> 00:14:38,320 Speaker 1: there's things that are implanted later in cgi. But do 301 00:14:38,400 --> 00:14:41,840 Speaker 1: you still feel the magic when you're making it or 302 00:14:41,920 --> 00:14:44,640 Speaker 1: is it so deconstructed it's just like, all right, we're 303 00:14:44,640 --> 00:14:46,720 Speaker 1: just here shooting something and let's see how it looks. 304 00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:50,400 Speaker 3: No, it's definitely magical, and I think that's part of 305 00:14:50,440 --> 00:14:52,520 Speaker 3: the fun and the magic of it too, is that 306 00:14:52,600 --> 00:14:55,560 Speaker 3: everyone on set, including the crew, knows that they're part 307 00:14:55,600 --> 00:15:01,680 Speaker 3: of something so special. Deadpool isn't like the other superheroes. 308 00:15:01,800 --> 00:15:04,880 Speaker 3: I mean, he's really sort of like a I mean 309 00:15:04,920 --> 00:15:08,160 Speaker 3: he's really like broken some boundaries and made a name 310 00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:10,520 Speaker 3: for himself. So I think everyone working on these films 311 00:15:10,560 --> 00:15:13,480 Speaker 3: knows that they're a part of something special, and everyone's 312 00:15:13,520 --> 00:15:16,080 Speaker 3: excited to be working on it, you know, And that's 313 00:15:16,400 --> 00:15:18,360 Speaker 3: part of what makes it so fun, is that you 314 00:15:18,360 --> 00:15:19,360 Speaker 3: can feel that energy. 315 00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:23,160 Speaker 1: I need your hot take on this because I've tried 316 00:15:23,200 --> 00:15:24,960 Speaker 1: to figure out what my answer would be and I'm 317 00:15:24,960 --> 00:15:28,480 Speaker 1: not quite sure. So if you had to decide between 318 00:15:28,480 --> 00:15:31,200 Speaker 1: having a best friend that's either Wolverine or Deadpool, who 319 00:15:31,240 --> 00:15:33,880 Speaker 1: would you pick? And why that. 320 00:15:33,920 --> 00:15:38,040 Speaker 2: Is actually really hard? You know what, I would probably 321 00:15:38,560 --> 00:15:39,920 Speaker 2: choose Deadpool. 322 00:15:40,080 --> 00:15:44,040 Speaker 3: I feel like he might be a little bit more unpredictable, 323 00:15:44,200 --> 00:15:47,640 Speaker 3: but that might add a sense of excitement to the friendship. 324 00:15:48,160 --> 00:15:50,600 Speaker 3: And you know, I feel like he's also even though 325 00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:52,520 Speaker 3: he's morally ambiguous. 326 00:15:51,920 --> 00:15:53,480 Speaker 2: He's a very loyal guy. 327 00:15:53,920 --> 00:15:57,840 Speaker 3: So I'm going to go ahead and say Deadpool, I think, 328 00:15:58,840 --> 00:15:59,160 Speaker 3: and you. 329 00:15:59,120 --> 00:16:02,560 Speaker 1: Know what, I'll go with Wolverine because if I picked Deadpool, 330 00:16:02,880 --> 00:16:04,600 Speaker 1: between the two of us, we won't shut up and 331 00:16:04,640 --> 00:16:07,120 Speaker 1: never We'll never be able to get a word in edgewise. 332 00:16:07,200 --> 00:16:09,960 Speaker 1: So that's going to be a disaster. Okay, Yeah, someone's 333 00:16:11,280 --> 00:16:13,920 Speaker 1: right right, I got him, So we got them all covered. 334 00:16:14,320 --> 00:16:17,240 Speaker 1: You know, Brianna, you said that you were eighteen when 335 00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:22,040 Speaker 1: you started off on this wild adventure, which is so young, 336 00:16:22,400 --> 00:16:25,600 Speaker 1: and I imagine kind of growing up in the industry 337 00:16:25,880 --> 00:16:29,400 Speaker 1: and working in such a high profile environment at that age. 338 00:16:29,560 --> 00:16:32,640 Speaker 1: While it was incredible and amazing and you feel so 339 00:16:32,760 --> 00:16:35,400 Speaker 1: lucky and blessed to do that, it also I'm sure 340 00:16:35,480 --> 00:16:38,480 Speaker 1: could have been an adjustment for you. So was it 341 00:16:38,960 --> 00:16:42,040 Speaker 1: weird kind of being in your most formative years growing 342 00:16:42,120 --> 00:16:43,720 Speaker 1: up in such a public way. 343 00:16:44,520 --> 00:16:47,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean it was weird. 344 00:16:47,480 --> 00:16:50,520 Speaker 3: It's also I mean, I feel lucky that I got 345 00:16:50,560 --> 00:16:53,720 Speaker 3: into the industry sort of at the tail end of 346 00:16:53,760 --> 00:16:55,640 Speaker 3: being a teenager. I don't know that I would have 347 00:16:55,680 --> 00:16:58,520 Speaker 3: handled it very well had I gotten into it any earlier. 348 00:16:58,600 --> 00:17:01,320 Speaker 3: But it's also I mean, I'm grateful that I'm not 349 00:17:01,600 --> 00:17:06,200 Speaker 3: living in this early two thousands age of like very 350 00:17:06,240 --> 00:17:10,800 Speaker 3: intense paparazzi and people paying as much attention as they 351 00:17:10,920 --> 00:17:13,560 Speaker 3: used to. I guess, if you know what I'm saying, Like, 352 00:17:14,040 --> 00:17:17,320 Speaker 3: I feel like the market is a little bit oversaturated. 353 00:17:17,359 --> 00:17:21,400 Speaker 3: There are a lot of people doing movies now and shows, 354 00:17:21,640 --> 00:17:24,840 Speaker 3: and so maybe there wasn't as much focus on me 355 00:17:25,240 --> 00:17:27,160 Speaker 3: as there might have been in the past. 356 00:17:27,760 --> 00:17:30,119 Speaker 2: But that being said, it definitely was an adjustment. 357 00:17:30,119 --> 00:17:33,679 Speaker 3: I'm an introvert, I'm a super private person, and so 358 00:17:33,880 --> 00:17:36,359 Speaker 3: there are a lot of things about the industry that 359 00:17:36,400 --> 00:17:40,040 Speaker 3: were hard to get used to, like just not being 360 00:17:40,119 --> 00:17:43,240 Speaker 3: able to post just my friends on social media without 361 00:17:43,280 --> 00:17:47,239 Speaker 3: a response, or people commenting on just life, you know, 362 00:17:47,840 --> 00:17:51,399 Speaker 3: or feeling like I have to be careful about what 363 00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:55,000 Speaker 3: I say sometimes in interviews just so that people don't 364 00:17:55,000 --> 00:17:57,840 Speaker 3: take things the wrong way like it always. It was 365 00:17:57,880 --> 00:18:01,000 Speaker 3: definitely an adjustment for me as an entry. But I 366 00:18:01,040 --> 00:18:03,040 Speaker 3: think that I've turned out okay. 367 00:18:03,320 --> 00:18:06,119 Speaker 2: I hope that I've turned out okay. I don't feel 368 00:18:06,320 --> 00:18:07,399 Speaker 2: so lost about it. 369 00:18:07,480 --> 00:18:10,000 Speaker 3: Luckily, I had a very good support system in my 370 00:18:10,080 --> 00:18:14,359 Speaker 3: family and friends. So yeah, it was an adjustment for sure, 371 00:18:14,400 --> 00:18:17,280 Speaker 3: But it's just life. I think it's part of the 372 00:18:17,320 --> 00:18:20,000 Speaker 3: business and I love what I do. I love acting, 373 00:18:20,240 --> 00:18:22,679 Speaker 3: so in the end, I think it's worth it for me. 374 00:18:23,359 --> 00:18:25,520 Speaker 1: Well, it's clear, you keep your head down, you do 375 00:18:25,560 --> 00:18:27,200 Speaker 1: the work, you don't get caught up in a lot 376 00:18:27,200 --> 00:18:30,639 Speaker 1: of the bs out there and that's very admirable because 377 00:18:30,640 --> 00:18:32,439 Speaker 1: it can be very easy to get caught up in 378 00:18:32,480 --> 00:18:35,719 Speaker 1: that cycle of you know, Hollywood, so to speak. And 379 00:18:35,960 --> 00:18:38,040 Speaker 1: there was something I read from you that I really 380 00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:40,639 Speaker 1: just thought was a beautiful quote, and you said, I 381 00:18:40,680 --> 00:18:43,320 Speaker 1: think it was. In a different interview, you said, I've 382 00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:45,600 Speaker 1: had to find a balance of making time for myself 383 00:18:45,640 --> 00:18:50,600 Speaker 1: and putting everyone else's opinion aside, which, oh, that can 384 00:18:50,640 --> 00:18:53,040 Speaker 1: be hard to do. You know, how did you develop 385 00:18:53,080 --> 00:18:56,119 Speaker 1: that mentality seemingly so young, because I think a lot 386 00:18:56,160 --> 00:18:57,959 Speaker 1: of people kind of work towards that. 387 00:18:58,840 --> 00:19:03,360 Speaker 3: I don't know, I'm just speaking from personal experience, but 388 00:19:03,400 --> 00:19:03,760 Speaker 3: for me. 389 00:19:03,800 --> 00:19:06,360 Speaker 2: That's been a big lesson of my twenties. 390 00:19:06,400 --> 00:19:09,960 Speaker 3: I've noticed is like, especially considering just my position, but 391 00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:12,600 Speaker 3: I think also a lot of people in their twenties 392 00:19:12,640 --> 00:19:14,960 Speaker 3: go through this where it's you're coming out of being 393 00:19:14,960 --> 00:19:19,399 Speaker 3: a teen and following even your maybe your guardian's opinions, 394 00:19:19,600 --> 00:19:21,560 Speaker 3: and you think, oh, they're thinking the best for me. 395 00:19:22,200 --> 00:19:24,280 Speaker 3: But at some point it is important to get to 396 00:19:24,800 --> 00:19:27,520 Speaker 3: a stage where you can decide what's the best for yourself. 397 00:19:27,560 --> 00:19:29,719 Speaker 3: And for me, I went through a few years of 398 00:19:29,760 --> 00:19:33,560 Speaker 3: not knowing really what I thought about things about many 399 00:19:33,640 --> 00:19:35,560 Speaker 3: things you know, I think that's maybe also. 400 00:19:35,359 --> 00:19:38,080 Speaker 2: Just part of being young, but I don't know. I 401 00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:41,600 Speaker 2: think I realized that COVID happened and I moved from. 402 00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:44,840 Speaker 3: LA closer to home where I'm from in Texas, and 403 00:19:44,880 --> 00:19:48,159 Speaker 3: I think that brought a lot to my attention. And 404 00:19:48,200 --> 00:19:52,080 Speaker 3: I think I realized I need the space to figure 405 00:19:52,119 --> 00:19:56,480 Speaker 3: out who I am. I need alone time and privacy maybe, 406 00:19:56,640 --> 00:20:00,640 Speaker 3: and that it's okay to like try things because that's 407 00:20:00,720 --> 00:20:02,120 Speaker 3: ultimately how you learn. 408 00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:05,359 Speaker 2: So yeah, I think for me moving away from the. 409 00:20:05,280 --> 00:20:08,520 Speaker 3: City and really clearing my mind and honing in on 410 00:20:08,600 --> 00:20:12,000 Speaker 3: what I want and what makes me happy, that's been 411 00:20:12,160 --> 00:20:14,200 Speaker 3: important for me recently. 412 00:20:14,560 --> 00:20:16,960 Speaker 1: Oh I love hearing that because I think it's hard 413 00:20:17,000 --> 00:20:20,639 Speaker 1: sometimes to separate yourself from what you're used to or 414 00:20:20,680 --> 00:20:22,600 Speaker 1: what you think you should be doing right. And you 415 00:20:22,680 --> 00:20:24,320 Speaker 1: might think, oh, I have to be in LA and 416 00:20:24,359 --> 00:20:27,280 Speaker 1: that's my industry, and what when moving away look like 417 00:20:27,359 --> 00:20:29,240 Speaker 1: or mean And you're like, no, no, I need to 418 00:20:29,280 --> 00:20:31,159 Speaker 1: take care of me and I can still have the 419 00:20:31,200 --> 00:20:33,280 Speaker 1: career of my dreams but in a different place. And 420 00:20:33,320 --> 00:20:36,760 Speaker 1: I think that's something that is so important for us 421 00:20:36,800 --> 00:20:39,600 Speaker 1: all to remember that you sometimes need to take those 422 00:20:39,640 --> 00:20:43,199 Speaker 1: steps that might not be conventional or might not be 423 00:20:43,320 --> 00:20:45,119 Speaker 1: the norm, but you need to do it to protect 424 00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:46,440 Speaker 1: your own well. 425 00:20:46,200 --> 00:20:50,080 Speaker 3: Being, right, Yeah, yeah, I agree, I agree, definitely. I 426 00:20:50,119 --> 00:20:52,760 Speaker 3: think for me, it's been really nice to be closer 427 00:20:52,800 --> 00:20:55,479 Speaker 3: to family, and I moved at a time when I 428 00:20:55,560 --> 00:20:58,919 Speaker 3: needed that support, and so yeah, that's been really helpful 429 00:20:58,960 --> 00:21:01,200 Speaker 3: for me. Not to say that I have everything figured out, 430 00:21:01,280 --> 00:21:05,280 Speaker 3: because I definitely don't, but you know, this is what 431 00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:06,320 Speaker 3: makes me feel good. 432 00:21:06,240 --> 00:21:08,840 Speaker 2: Right now, and so I'm just doing my thing. 433 00:21:09,080 --> 00:21:11,000 Speaker 1: It's important to do what makes you feel good, and 434 00:21:11,040 --> 00:21:13,200 Speaker 1: you make a lot of people feel good as well 435 00:21:13,240 --> 00:21:17,760 Speaker 1: because of the representation aspect of what your character means 436 00:21:17,800 --> 00:21:21,000 Speaker 1: in this Deadpool world and in this franchise. And you know, 437 00:21:21,040 --> 00:21:23,600 Speaker 1: she's one of the first openly queer superheroes. And that's 438 00:21:23,640 --> 00:21:25,840 Speaker 1: something that when I announced you as my guest, I 439 00:21:25,880 --> 00:21:28,399 Speaker 1: saw so many people writing in saying, oh my god, 440 00:21:28,600 --> 00:21:30,679 Speaker 1: like that helped me at such a young age, and 441 00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:33,520 Speaker 1: that made me feel invincible. That made me feel good enough, 442 00:21:33,640 --> 00:21:36,760 Speaker 1: and it just is so rewarding, I'm sure as an 443 00:21:36,880 --> 00:21:39,640 Speaker 1: artist to hear and see things like that, as I'm 444 00:21:39,680 --> 00:21:41,560 Speaker 1: sure you have. So do you kind of wear that 445 00:21:41,600 --> 00:21:43,120 Speaker 1: badge of honor proudly. 446 00:21:43,960 --> 00:21:44,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, for sure. 447 00:21:44,920 --> 00:21:48,520 Speaker 3: I mean, I'm just honored that Ryan even wanted to 448 00:21:48,560 --> 00:21:52,240 Speaker 3: make that a part of my character story, and I, yeah, 449 00:21:52,480 --> 00:21:54,879 Speaker 3: I think it. Initially I felt a lot of pressure 450 00:21:54,920 --> 00:21:57,480 Speaker 3: about it, and I'd expressed to Ryan like, I just 451 00:21:57,520 --> 00:21:59,959 Speaker 3: want to make sure that it's you know, it's not 452 00:22:00,920 --> 00:22:02,639 Speaker 3: so I don't know. I want to make sure that 453 00:22:03,160 --> 00:22:06,640 Speaker 3: we're doing it right. And I also, I mean trusted 454 00:22:06,720 --> 00:22:09,879 Speaker 3: Ryan and the writers to make it as great as 455 00:22:09,920 --> 00:22:11,720 Speaker 3: they could, and I think they did a great job. 456 00:22:11,760 --> 00:22:14,639 Speaker 3: But it's been it's really been an honor getting to 457 00:22:14,680 --> 00:22:18,440 Speaker 3: meet so many young queer people, especially at conventions, who 458 00:22:19,359 --> 00:22:21,360 Speaker 3: they say the same things to me, like, oh, this 459 00:22:21,400 --> 00:22:24,280 Speaker 3: is it's been really great to see your character. She's 460 00:22:24,320 --> 00:22:27,320 Speaker 3: inspired me or she's given me strength in some way, 461 00:22:27,520 --> 00:22:31,520 Speaker 3: especially in countries that are maybe not as progressive or 462 00:22:31,560 --> 00:22:35,040 Speaker 3: openly accepting of people who are queer. That's been probably 463 00:22:35,040 --> 00:22:39,000 Speaker 3: the most rewarding thing about getting to play Negasonic. It's 464 00:22:39,080 --> 00:22:43,120 Speaker 3: really I'm so grateful that, yeah, I've been given that opportunity, And. 465 00:22:43,080 --> 00:22:45,040 Speaker 1: Like you said, it was brought up in a way 466 00:22:45,119 --> 00:22:48,800 Speaker 1: that wasn't dramatic or heavy or weird. It was, like 467 00:22:48,800 --> 00:22:51,520 Speaker 1: I think in the second movie, when your character brought 468 00:22:51,560 --> 00:22:53,560 Speaker 1: out her girlfriend, it was just kind of like, hey, 469 00:22:53,600 --> 00:22:56,080 Speaker 1: what's up, Like there wasn't this whole big scene about it, 470 00:22:56,119 --> 00:22:59,600 Speaker 1: which I think is sometimes what's needed in the different 471 00:22:59,600 --> 00:23:01,720 Speaker 1: forms of art, Like sometimes you just have to have 472 00:23:01,840 --> 00:23:03,720 Speaker 1: it be at least that's my opinion. 473 00:23:04,160 --> 00:23:06,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, I agree, And that's also what I was saying 474 00:23:06,200 --> 00:23:07,960 Speaker 3: to Ryan about it, is that it doesn't need to 475 00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:11,240 Speaker 3: be a whole like, oh, she's so different for this thing. 476 00:23:11,359 --> 00:23:12,280 Speaker 2: It just can be. 477 00:23:12,480 --> 00:23:15,400 Speaker 3: And I think that it's important for young queer people 478 00:23:15,440 --> 00:23:19,679 Speaker 3: to see your queerness doesn't make you. It doesn't have 479 00:23:19,720 --> 00:23:20,840 Speaker 3: to define you. 480 00:23:20,840 --> 00:23:21,040 Speaker 2: You know. 481 00:23:21,760 --> 00:23:24,720 Speaker 1: I think that what we need is a spin off 482 00:23:24,760 --> 00:23:26,760 Speaker 1: of your character.

You know, I 513 00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:06,960 Speaker 2: like to tune into my Instagram whenever I'm ready to see. 514 00:25:06,760 --> 00:25:09,720 Speaker 3: That kind of stuff, but yeah, generally I try to 515 00:25:09,760 --> 00:25:11,840 Speaker 3: stay away from it, you know, I try to use 516 00:25:11,880 --> 00:25:15,440 Speaker 3: this time as like a celebratory we did it sort 517 00:25:15,480 --> 00:25:18,400 Speaker 3: of thing and try to lock into work a little 518 00:25:18,440 --> 00:25:22,760 Speaker 3: bit more. And yeah, I keep my focus away from 519 00:25:22,800 --> 00:25:25,000 Speaker 3: all of it because it can be very overwhelming. 520 00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:26,320 Speaker 2: It can be it can. 521 00:25:26,240 --> 00:25:29,800 Speaker 3: Feel like too much, very easily for me. So that's yeah, 522 00:25:29,880 --> 00:25:31,560 Speaker 3: something I try to stay away from. 523 00:25:31,840 --> 00:25:35,160 Speaker 1: Man, I feel like we have about ten years between us, 524 00:25:35,320 --> 00:25:38,800 Speaker 1: yet you have figured out life so much more than 525 00:25:38,840 --> 00:25:41,120 Speaker 1: I did at that age. And I know you say 526 00:25:41,119 --> 00:25:42,440 Speaker 1: you don't have it all figured it out, and none 527 00:25:42,480 --> 00:25:44,280 Speaker 1: of us do and we're all works in progress. But 528 00:25:44,840 --> 00:25:47,280 Speaker 1: how did you get to this point? Like a can 529 00:25:47,320 --> 00:25:49,240 Speaker 1: you be my life coach and be like, how are 530 00:25:49,280 --> 00:25:53,000 Speaker 1: you so just grounded at this point of your life? 531 00:25:53,800 --> 00:25:54,320 Speaker 2: I don't know. 532 00:25:54,560 --> 00:25:56,320 Speaker 3: I spend a lot of time with my dad and 533 00:25:56,320 --> 00:25:58,399 Speaker 3: I are really close, so I spend a lot of 534 00:25:58,400 --> 00:26:01,399 Speaker 3: time with him and hanging out with his friends, and 535 00:26:01,440 --> 00:26:05,520 Speaker 3: they're all older people, so maybe that's a reason why. 536 00:26:05,600 --> 00:26:07,480 Speaker 2: But yeah, I don't know. 537 00:26:07,640 --> 00:26:11,040 Speaker 3: I think I just have really tried to work things out. 538 00:26:11,240 --> 00:26:13,760 Speaker 3: I went through a period of time toward the end 539 00:26:13,840 --> 00:26:15,760 Speaker 3: of living in LA where I was really just not 540 00:26:16,680 --> 00:26:20,399 Speaker 3: doing well, like emotionally, so I think I fell into 541 00:26:20,480 --> 00:26:25,080 Speaker 3: a self help place and now I've yeah, I'm yeah, 542 00:26:25,080 --> 00:26:29,320 Speaker 3: I'm realizing where I'm comfortable and so it's been good. 543 00:26:29,359 --> 00:26:30,960 Speaker 3: But I really, I don't know. I don't have like 544 00:26:30,960 --> 00:26:34,320 Speaker 3: a straightforward answer for that. It just it's funny because 545 00:26:34,320 --> 00:26:36,720 Speaker 3: I don't feel that way. But I appreciate you saying that. 546 00:26:37,359 --> 00:26:39,399 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, well I mean it, I really do. I 547 00:26:39,400 --> 00:26:42,160 Speaker 1: think it's it's cool to see when people seem truly 548 00:26:42,200 --> 00:26:45,160 Speaker 1: at peace and grounded, you know, in their lives. That's 549 00:26:45,160 --> 00:26:47,120 Speaker 1: what I think we all want on a human level 550 00:26:47,119 --> 00:26:50,120 Speaker 1: for each other. So I love to see that. And Brianda, 551 00:26:50,160 --> 00:26:53,080 Speaker 1: the name of the show is called I've never said 552 00:26:53,119 --> 00:26:56,800 Speaker 1: this before, So I'm wondering, is there anything that comes 553 00:26:56,840 --> 00:26:59,399 Speaker 1: to mind that you want to share today that you 554 00:26:59,400 --> 00:27:01,920 Speaker 1: haven't talked to before. I know you've done a bunch 555 00:27:01,920 --> 00:27:04,479 Speaker 1: of interviews and press and things along the way, but 556 00:27:04,520 --> 00:27:05,879 Speaker 1: does anything come to mind for you? 557 00:27:07,119 --> 00:27:11,120 Speaker 3: So I did a show called Trinkets a few years ago. 558 00:27:11,480 --> 00:27:15,879 Speaker 3: It only ran for two seasons, but I really miss 559 00:27:16,200 --> 00:27:19,960 Speaker 3: working on that. I miss all of my co stars 560 00:27:20,040 --> 00:27:24,119 Speaker 3: and filming in Portland, and also like I might have 561 00:27:24,280 --> 00:27:26,280 Speaker 3: had a little bit of a crush on one of 562 00:27:26,280 --> 00:27:27,240 Speaker 3: my co stars. 563 00:27:27,320 --> 00:27:31,959 Speaker 2: So I miss seeing them. I do. That's something that 564 00:27:32,080 --> 00:27:33,440 Speaker 2: I haven't said. 565 00:27:33,440 --> 00:27:35,800 Speaker 1: Oh do you keep in touch with everyone? 566 00:27:36,160 --> 00:27:37,920 Speaker 2: Yeah? I talked to them every now and again. 567 00:27:37,960 --> 00:27:40,399 Speaker 3: It's weird because we all live in different places, you know, 568 00:27:40,480 --> 00:27:41,919 Speaker 3: And that's I feel like that's how a lot of 569 00:27:41,960 --> 00:27:45,080 Speaker 3: filming goes. It's like you, once you stop filming, you 570 00:27:45,160 --> 00:27:47,720 Speaker 3: really don't see each other as much, and we don't 571 00:27:47,720 --> 00:27:50,040 Speaker 3: make a point to get together, but we probably should 572 00:27:50,160 --> 00:27:51,879 Speaker 3: because I had so much fun filming that. 573 00:27:52,280 --> 00:27:54,359 Speaker 1: And does the person who you had a crush on 574 00:27:54,680 --> 00:27:56,040 Speaker 1: know that you had a crush on them? 575 00:27:56,560 --> 00:27:59,720 Speaker 3: No? And now you know, I think I think at 576 00:27:59,720 --> 00:28:03,240 Speaker 3: this point this person is in a relationship. 577 00:28:03,359 --> 00:28:06,919 Speaker 2: I think so.

You're introverted, and it's sometimes 594 00:28:54,960 --> 00:28:57,800 Speaker 1: not always the easiest for introverts to open up and 595 00:28:57,840 --> 00:29:01,080 Speaker 1: have a long form conversation.
