Speaker 3: a new film, The Holdovers. Please welcome, Davine joined Randolph. Okay,
Speaker 3: thank you mine, thank you so much for being here.
Speaker 3: It's wonderful to see you.
Speaker 1: It's so good to see you.
Speaker 3: Yes, we uh, we went to the same high school.
Speaker 4: You high school?
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, but we we were from i mean central
Speaker 3: Pennsylvania and you did this movie. You have to do
Speaker 3: a Boston accent in this movie. That was that hard
Speaker 3: to I mean, I'm someone who's terrible at accents, really,
Speaker 3: I mean awful. I don't know if you heard the
Speaker 3: Trump one. Yeah, but was it hard to get into
Speaker 3: the Boston accent? Was it hard to get out of
Speaker 3: the Boston accent?
Speaker 4: It helped because we were filming in Boston, so that helped.
Speaker 4: But it was hard because the accent that I'm doing
Speaker 4: is like a seventies Boston African American dialect. So I'm
Speaker 4: not sading like Mark Wahlberg, you know what i mean.
Speaker 4: So everybody's walking around like Wallburgs and they're like and
Speaker 4: I'm like, it's different, it's different. So sometimes it would
Speaker 4: throw me a little bit, and so I just would
Speaker 4: have like certain key words that would help me get
Speaker 4: it back into it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, do you can you share any in your key No.
Speaker 4: I used to before they said action. I would be like, oh,
Speaker 4: mister Hannamna Hannam, and just say his name, and that
Speaker 4: would like kind of settle me back into it.
Speaker 3: Is there anything you specifically watched or listened to get
Speaker 3: into that?
Speaker 4: Like Summer is from Boston, and so I would watch
Speaker 4: a lot of her interviews and stuff like that because
Speaker 4: it was more to the time period. And yeah, a
Speaker 4: lot of YouTube clips and stuff like that, and that
Speaker 4: kind of helped me constantly have that in my head.
Speaker 3: And that's great. You got to listen to Donna Summers
Speaker 3: and yeah, right, like Mark Wahlberg, and you've done I mean,
Speaker 3: you've done so many incredible things. You've got to work
Speaker 3: with so many incredible people, you know, Eddie Murphy, Paul GIAMAI,
Speaker 3: Steve Martin. Are there any other people that you're like
Speaker 3: really wanting to work with.
Speaker 4: I really want to work with Bradley Cooper. I saw
Speaker 4: the trailer the other night of Maestro and it looks amazing. Yeah,
Speaker 4: the way that he just died I like people that
Speaker 4: just want to die fully in he resembles him in
Speaker 4: an interesting way, and I think that's both with the
Speaker 4: magic of you know, movies, but also his commitment to
Speaker 4: the role that it's just I was like, oh, he's
Speaker 4: really he's dedicated. So that was exciting for me that
Speaker 4: I was like, I would love to work with him.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's it. I imagine you want to work with
Speaker 3: other people at the top of their game. And yeah,
Speaker 3: I saw I saw Bradley Cooper in New York recently,
Speaker 3: and I like, it took me everything not to be.
Speaker 4: Like, yeah, exactly, he's a handsome one.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and then what about other roles anything that Like,
Speaker 3: I mean, you've done a mix of serious comedy.
Speaker 4: I think I want to start getting into biopics. I
Speaker 4: think that would be really fun, and that I started
Speaker 4: off with singing, so I think that could be a
Speaker 4: really nice way to merge the two. Yeah, I think
Speaker 4: biopics and start playing some real women.
Speaker 3: I'd be great. Get this lady some real women and
Speaker 3: your character Mary in this she's a she's a cook.
Speaker 3: Do you are you good at cooking?
Speaker 1: I am good at cooking. I love cooking.
Speaker 4: And that was kind of like not a deal breaker,
Speaker 4: but that was something that I said to the director
Speaker 4: Alexander Payne. I was like, if I do this, I
Speaker 4: really need real food. And so he was really cool
Speaker 4: about it. He was like, Okay, what is the Christmas menu?
Speaker 4: And I was like really, yeah, yeah, And so I
Speaker 4: cook in real life and real time. I cook soup, oatmeal,
Speaker 4: a roasted chicken, and ate like a breakfast because I'm hungover.
Speaker 3: That's that sounds great. I want to be in this movie,
Speaker 3: you're I. I don't. I would like. I like to
Speaker 3: think I can cook, but I just don't. I don't
Speaker 3: do it because I don't like to clean up.
Speaker 1: And I got to take somebody clean up for I know.
Speaker 3: I need to make people to clean up from you,
Speaker 3: you know.

Speaker 4: Did you have to really nervous about it. I was like, ooh,
Speaker 4: I feel like I might have that addiction gene.
Speaker 1: What's gonna go happen?
Speaker 4: And so they gave me Before we started shooting, the
Speaker 4: director sent over two big boxes of like natural fake ones,
Speaker 4: and it just wasn't working for me, and like because
Speaker 4: the it was fake and it looked fake while doing it,
Speaker 4: And so I started using American spirits because they have
Speaker 4: like you know, there's different like I call it gradients
Speaker 4: of addiction that nicotine.
Speaker 1: Gets like stronger and stronger.
Speaker 4: So I had like the blue pack, which I think
Speaker 4: is like the lighter of them, and then like of
