WEBVTT - Thursday Post Show (01-27-21)

0:00:01.720 --> 0:00:06.680
<v Speaker 1>So Amy and Morrigan interviewed Nina Dobrev. So you know

0:00:06.800 --> 0:00:10.760
<v Speaker 1>her from well Ill she's in Vampire Diaries, but she

0:00:10.760 --> 0:00:12.440
<v Speaker 1>also was in that Netflix movie that came out her

0:00:12.480 --> 0:00:15.520
<v Speaker 1>on Christmas, Love Hard, and then she's in Redeeming Love,

0:00:15.640 --> 0:00:18.279
<v Speaker 1>which just hit theaters and I watched that and it's

0:00:18.320 --> 0:00:21.320
<v Speaker 1>like such a good movie. Morgan, you know Nina from

0:00:21.320 --> 0:00:24.200
<v Speaker 1>I can't say her name, Nina Dobrev from I mean

0:00:24.239 --> 0:00:27.960
<v Speaker 1>I follow her on Socials but also Vampire Diaries. In Degrassi,

0:00:28.480 --> 0:00:32.760
<v Speaker 1>she has twenty five million followers. Wow, yeah, that's a superstar.

0:00:33.000 --> 0:00:37.800
<v Speaker 1>I don't think I would recognize her. What I that's

0:00:37.800 --> 0:00:39.760
<v Speaker 1>crazy that somebody can be so famous to a part.

0:00:39.960 --> 0:00:42.400
<v Speaker 1>But that's that's the earth, now. Yeah, some people are

0:00:42.400 --> 0:00:45.040
<v Speaker 1>so famous to some and not at all to others.

0:00:45.080 --> 0:00:46.839
<v Speaker 1>But I don't watch these kinds of shows, so I

0:00:46.880 --> 0:00:49.400
<v Speaker 1>get it. But man, she's wildly famous. Yeah. I saw

0:00:49.440 --> 0:00:51.040
<v Speaker 1>she was on Ellen the other day and I guess

0:00:51.040 --> 0:00:54.040
<v Speaker 1>she's has a partnership with Julian Huff and they now

0:00:54.160 --> 0:00:57.280
<v Speaker 1>have like a wine business together too. Okay, here's Amy

0:00:57.280 --> 0:01:01.160
<v Speaker 1>and Morgan interviewing Nina Dobre, which we're good about this, Yeah,

0:01:01.240 --> 0:01:03.960
<v Speaker 1>so good all right, here we go on the Bobby

0:01:04.000 --> 0:01:11.800
<v Speaker 1>Bones Show. Now, Hey, Nina, Hi, Okay, we're so excited

0:01:11.840 --> 0:01:14.680
<v Speaker 1>to have you on. I'm Amy. We also have Morgan

0:01:14.800 --> 0:01:17.560
<v Speaker 1>number two O, our web girl, on and she's going

0:01:17.600 --> 0:01:19.560
<v Speaker 1>to bring you some questions in a minute that are

0:01:19.640 --> 0:01:23.880
<v Speaker 1>from our listeners. But I gotta say I saw Redeeming

0:01:24.000 --> 0:01:27.560
<v Speaker 1>Love and I'm obsessed with it. Thank you so much.

0:01:27.640 --> 0:01:30.679
<v Speaker 1>I'm glad you liked it. Is that something where you

0:01:30.760 --> 0:01:33.840
<v Speaker 1>read the book before you ever were approached or decided

0:01:33.880 --> 0:01:35.520
<v Speaker 1>to do the project, and you're like, oh, I've got

0:01:35.520 --> 0:01:37.399
<v Speaker 1>to do this, this is for me, or how did

0:01:37.400 --> 0:01:41.080
<v Speaker 1>that come about? Actually, no, I hadn't read the book.

0:01:41.280 --> 0:01:46.000
<v Speaker 1>I wasn't familiar with it. But of course, once DJ Cursa,

0:01:46.080 --> 0:01:49.920
<v Speaker 1>the director of the movie who I worked has previously

0:01:50.000 --> 0:01:53.560
<v Speaker 1>called me and Semi the script, I fell in love

0:01:53.600 --> 0:01:56.360
<v Speaker 1>with the story, and I fell in love with the

0:01:56.360 --> 0:01:59.640
<v Speaker 1>themes in the movie. And I love South Africa, which

0:01:59.640 --> 0:02:02.040
<v Speaker 1>is where we shot the movie, so it felt like

0:02:02.040 --> 0:02:05.600
<v Speaker 1>a no brainer. One of my friends read that book,

0:02:05.640 --> 0:02:08.040
<v Speaker 1>that's where I first learned about it, and she said

0:02:08.120 --> 0:02:11.200
<v Speaker 1>that it's a book that completely changed her view of

0:02:11.240 --> 0:02:13.320
<v Speaker 1>God more than like any other book. She's ever read,

0:02:13.360 --> 0:02:16.120
<v Speaker 1>and she's read it four times, so she also was

0:02:16.120 --> 0:02:19.960
<v Speaker 1>super pumped about the movie. It takes place. What year

0:02:20.080 --> 0:02:21.720
<v Speaker 1>is that, by the way, it takes place in the

0:02:21.720 --> 0:02:24.840
<v Speaker 1>eighteen hundreds, if I'm not mistaken, I don't remember the

0:02:24.919 --> 0:02:27.840
<v Speaker 1>specific year, but sometimes in the eighteen hundreds. It was

0:02:27.880 --> 0:02:31.040
<v Speaker 1>really fun to put on all the costumes and really

0:02:31.080 --> 0:02:33.799
<v Speaker 1>transform into these characters. It makes it a lot easier.

0:02:33.840 --> 0:02:36.760
<v Speaker 1>It makes our job year as an actor to become

0:02:36.960 --> 0:02:40.640
<v Speaker 1>an embody a role. When you have a whole transformation

0:02:40.760 --> 0:02:42.919
<v Speaker 1>from more joke to hair and makeup, it's so different

0:02:43.000 --> 0:02:47.160
<v Speaker 1>than what you're used to. Have you watched the Yellowstone

0:02:47.200 --> 0:02:50.560
<v Speaker 1>prequel eighteen eighty three, I actually haven't a lot of

0:02:50.560 --> 0:02:53.280
<v Speaker 1>people have been bringing that up in the interviews, and

0:02:54.480 --> 0:02:56.480
<v Speaker 1>I feel like I need to watch it now because

0:02:56.720 --> 0:03:00.680
<v Speaker 1>everyone's talking about it, But no, I haven't, no chance. Yeah, yeah, definitely.

0:03:00.720 --> 0:03:03.880
<v Speaker 1>The vibe of redeeming love was making me think of

0:03:04.520 --> 0:03:07.000
<v Speaker 1>Tim McGraw and Faith Hill and in that new show.

0:03:07.680 --> 0:03:10.680
<v Speaker 1>Another movie that I saw recently with you in well

0:03:10.720 --> 0:03:13.000
<v Speaker 1>actually a few months ago, but it was Love Hard

0:03:13.120 --> 0:03:16.200
<v Speaker 1>and I thought that was the most adorable Netflix movie ever.

0:03:16.520 --> 0:03:20.280
<v Speaker 1>And you know it's about catfishing, and I just didn't

0:03:20.280 --> 0:03:22.600
<v Speaker 1>know if you've ever dealt with anything like that in

0:03:22.639 --> 0:03:27.320
<v Speaker 1>your real life. Not really, because I've actually never been

0:03:27.320 --> 0:03:30.880
<v Speaker 1>on a dating app myself. I've been on them through

0:03:30.919 --> 0:03:34.000
<v Speaker 1>friends accounts just to play around, which is going to

0:03:34.080 --> 0:03:36.040
<v Speaker 1>clol when you think about it, because I'm playing with

0:03:36.080 --> 0:03:41.240
<v Speaker 1>their real lives. But but no, I've never actually been

0:03:41.280 --> 0:03:46.720
<v Speaker 1>in that scenario, thank goodness. My daughter is currently watching

0:03:46.840 --> 0:03:50.240
<v Speaker 1>Vampire Diaries. She's fourteen. So when I told her I

0:03:50.280 --> 0:03:51.880
<v Speaker 1>was going to be talking to you this morning before

0:03:51.920 --> 0:03:54.680
<v Speaker 1>she left for school, she was like, please tell her.

0:03:54.720 --> 0:03:57.520
<v Speaker 1>I said, Hi, I was just watching her yesterday, so

0:03:58.240 --> 0:04:01.839
<v Speaker 1>I have to tell her hide back. Yeah, I get

0:04:01.880 --> 0:04:04.640
<v Speaker 1>that high in there from my daughter. Stashira, What role?

0:04:04.680 --> 0:04:07.160
<v Speaker 1>Because you've done lots of things, but you know, like

0:04:07.200 --> 0:04:09.840
<v Speaker 1>my daughter would recognize you from Vampire Diaries, I would

0:04:09.840 --> 0:04:11.800
<v Speaker 1>recognize you from other things. Like what role? Do you

0:04:11.840 --> 0:04:15.720
<v Speaker 1>get recognized the most for? I've been I mean, for

0:04:15.880 --> 0:04:19.360
<v Speaker 1>sure were Vampire Diaries by Landslide, That's what I'm most

0:04:19.440 --> 0:04:21.440
<v Speaker 1>known for, and I get stopped on the street the

0:04:21.560 --> 0:04:25.080
<v Speaker 1>most for. But recently because of Love Heart, I didn't

0:04:25.120 --> 0:04:30.000
<v Speaker 1>even realize I guess how many people watched it. I

0:04:30.040 --> 0:04:34.839
<v Speaker 1>should have assumed because Netflix is worldwide and and it

0:04:34.880 --> 0:04:38.680
<v Speaker 1>apparently performed really well globally for them, which is really exciting.

0:04:39.440 --> 0:04:42.279
<v Speaker 1>But I definitely I've been getting a lot of a

0:04:42.279 --> 0:04:43.920
<v Speaker 1>lot of people have been shopping me now because of that.

0:04:45.560 --> 0:04:49.440
<v Speaker 1>For all the different characters that you have played over time, like,

0:04:49.920 --> 0:04:52.840
<v Speaker 1>do you ever get so into a role that you

0:04:52.880 --> 0:04:54.960
<v Speaker 1>know you forget like in your real life you're not

0:04:55.240 --> 0:04:57.680
<v Speaker 1>that character, or do you even do what they call

0:04:57.800 --> 0:05:01.480
<v Speaker 1>method acting? You probably know more about that than I do. Yeah,

0:05:01.520 --> 0:05:05.960
<v Speaker 1>I mean it's a tricky thing because I don't identify

0:05:06.000 --> 0:05:08.560
<v Speaker 1>as someone who's a method actor, and I definitely don't

0:05:09.080 --> 0:05:11.880
<v Speaker 1>intend to do that, but I think it's sort of hard,

0:05:12.279 --> 0:05:16.440
<v Speaker 1>and whether people admit it or not, you naturally do

0:05:16.600 --> 0:05:18.680
<v Speaker 1>take on some of the characteristics of the role that

0:05:18.720 --> 0:05:21.520
<v Speaker 1>you're playing. And I remember when I was shooting Vampridary specifically,

0:05:22.320 --> 0:05:25.000
<v Speaker 1>like I was a young, kind of good girl at

0:05:25.000 --> 0:05:29.000
<v Speaker 1>the time, and when I started playing Catherine, I naturally

0:05:29.480 --> 0:05:31.599
<v Speaker 1>started to sort of embody her and kind of act

0:05:31.640 --> 0:05:35.320
<v Speaker 1>like her and did things as that character that then

0:05:35.760 --> 0:05:37.760
<v Speaker 1>gave me a confidence in my real life to be

0:05:37.880 --> 0:05:41.680
<v Speaker 1>more you know, spunky and a little darker and so

0:05:41.920 --> 0:05:43.679
<v Speaker 1>I think it did bring it home with me, whether

0:05:43.720 --> 0:05:47.960
<v Speaker 1>I was aware of it or not. About any fashion

0:05:48.240 --> 0:05:50.839
<v Speaker 1>from Redeeming Love, you brought that with you, like the

0:05:50.920 --> 0:05:54.920
<v Speaker 1>corset or anything like that. I ripped that corset off

0:05:54.960 --> 0:05:56.920
<v Speaker 1>as soon as I possibly could when we started shooting

0:05:56.920 --> 0:05:59.440
<v Speaker 1>because it was so uncomfortable. I think, all course, it's

0:05:59.520 --> 0:06:03.920
<v Speaker 1>you know, you can't breathe. They're really beautiful and they

0:06:03.960 --> 0:06:08.480
<v Speaker 1>push the boobs up, which is always exciting, but they

0:06:08.520 --> 0:06:11.480
<v Speaker 1>weren't comfortable. So no, I didn't take anything back with me.

0:06:11.560 --> 0:06:14.480
<v Speaker 1>There was a really beautiful white custom dress at the

0:06:14.600 --> 0:06:18.040
<v Speaker 1>end of the movie that my character wears that I

0:06:18.080 --> 0:06:19.719
<v Speaker 1>wanted to take home, and they said that I could

0:06:19.760 --> 0:06:24.520
<v Speaker 1>take it home, but I don't think I ever got it. Morgan,

0:06:24.680 --> 0:06:29.640
<v Speaker 1>do you have some questions from the web? Yeah? I do. Okay,

0:06:29.640 --> 0:06:32.840
<v Speaker 1>so Nina, you know, you're talking about Vampire Diaries and

0:06:33.240 --> 0:06:35.440
<v Speaker 1>in some of the fans of that show really want

0:06:35.440 --> 0:06:38.240
<v Speaker 1>to know do you ever plan to make an appearance

0:06:38.480 --> 0:06:44.839
<v Speaker 1>on the show Legacies? What a wonderful question. I'm not sure.

0:06:44.920 --> 0:06:47.560
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I think it depends on I don't want

0:06:47.560 --> 0:06:50.520
<v Speaker 1>to say never. Say you never say never, But at

0:06:50.600 --> 0:06:54.320
<v Speaker 1>this moment in time, I've had so many things going on.

0:06:54.400 --> 0:06:56.520
<v Speaker 1>I'm about to be for Europe to shoot a film,

0:06:57.360 --> 0:07:00.080
<v Speaker 1>and I've been kind of all over the place, so

0:07:00.120 --> 0:07:02.640
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, schedule wise, if it's possible. But I

0:07:02.800 --> 0:07:06.200
<v Speaker 1>know that the show is a fan favorite and people

0:07:06.240 --> 0:07:09.800
<v Speaker 1>who watched Van Pioriays love it, and that a lot

0:07:09.840 --> 0:07:14.200
<v Speaker 1>of people from our show did make appearances. So we'll see. Well.

0:07:14.240 --> 0:07:16.080
<v Speaker 1>I think fans will be really excited to hear that.

0:07:16.200 --> 0:07:19.080
<v Speaker 1>Now you're talking about all the projects that you're doing.

0:07:19.600 --> 0:07:22.640
<v Speaker 1>How do you decide if a project is the right

0:07:22.680 --> 0:07:24.840
<v Speaker 1>fit for you, like now in your career, since you've

0:07:24.840 --> 0:07:28.800
<v Speaker 1>done so much. It really depends on three different factors

0:07:28.840 --> 0:07:32.280
<v Speaker 1>at this point. When I was younger, I would sort

0:07:32.320 --> 0:07:34.680
<v Speaker 1>of take whatever opportunity came my way because I wanted

0:07:34.680 --> 0:07:37.920
<v Speaker 1>to work and I wanted to grow my career and

0:07:38.840 --> 0:07:42.920
<v Speaker 1>every project to the next one. But now I really

0:07:43.160 --> 0:07:47.240
<v Speaker 1>make my decisions based on the character, the script overall,

0:07:47.400 --> 0:07:51.000
<v Speaker 1>and the filmmakers involved, because it's important to me to

0:07:51.040 --> 0:07:55.480
<v Speaker 1>tell impactful stories that affects people and that hopefully move

0:07:55.520 --> 0:08:00.800
<v Speaker 1>the needle. Or I have strong themes and can have

0:08:00.880 --> 0:08:04.520
<v Speaker 1>the audience go away with big takeaways that hopefully impact

0:08:04.520 --> 0:08:09.640
<v Speaker 1>their lives. And are socially conscious if possible. But female

0:08:09.640 --> 0:08:12.240
<v Speaker 1>like strong female characters are important to me and working

0:08:12.240 --> 0:08:16.920
<v Speaker 1>with billmakers that are inspirational, and that's kind of what

0:08:16.960 --> 0:08:19.640
<v Speaker 1>I make my decisions on. Yeah. And has there ever

0:08:19.760 --> 0:08:22.880
<v Speaker 1>been a project that you initially passed on that maybe

0:08:22.880 --> 0:08:24.720
<v Speaker 1>you went back to or maybe you passed on and

0:08:24.760 --> 0:08:28.640
<v Speaker 1>you just wish you maybe didn't pass on it. Of course. Yeah,

0:08:28.680 --> 0:08:31.800
<v Speaker 1>There's been tons of things that came and went. And

0:08:33.920 --> 0:08:37.160
<v Speaker 1>I mean you mentioned Yellowstone. I was a pre Yellowstone

0:08:37.160 --> 0:08:40.920
<v Speaker 1>and ended up not going for it. So I know

0:08:40.960 --> 0:08:43.360
<v Speaker 1>that's a great show and a fan favorite. And so

0:08:44.679 --> 0:08:47.840
<v Speaker 1>I also really believe in everything happening for a reason

0:08:48.160 --> 0:08:52.960
<v Speaker 1>and having an intended path that maybe you don't know about.

0:08:53.040 --> 0:08:57.320
<v Speaker 1>But everything works out exactly as it's supposed to what

0:08:57.360 --> 0:09:00.440
<v Speaker 1>it's supposed to, is my belief. Yeah, for sure. It

0:09:00.480 --> 0:09:03.199
<v Speaker 1>sounds like Amy had a question too on that Yellowstone.

0:09:03.200 --> 0:09:05.959
<v Speaker 1>Oh well, yeah, mostly I'm just obsessed with the Yellowstone

0:09:06.000 --> 0:09:07.200
<v Speaker 1>and now I need to know. I was like, oh,

0:09:07.280 --> 0:09:10.600
<v Speaker 1>it was Nina up for like Beth or Casey's whife

0:09:10.640 --> 0:09:13.960
<v Speaker 1>or do you even know? It was so long ago

0:09:14.040 --> 0:09:15.880
<v Speaker 1>that I don't even remember the name of the character.

0:09:16.000 --> 0:09:21.480
<v Speaker 1>And I haven't seen the show, but I didn't get

0:09:21.480 --> 0:09:24.160
<v Speaker 1>it and then pass on it. I didn't you an

0:09:24.160 --> 0:09:27.120
<v Speaker 1>audition for it because I don't remember why the reason was,

0:09:27.160 --> 0:09:32.600
<v Speaker 1>but I was just like, it doesn't feel right for me. Yeah.

0:09:33.240 --> 0:09:35.800
<v Speaker 1>Now you know there's other roles that you have done

0:09:35.800 --> 0:09:39.600
<v Speaker 1>that are you mentioned being really well known for Vampire Diaries,

0:09:39.640 --> 0:09:44.400
<v Speaker 1>you also did Degrassi, So for either of those, are

0:09:44.440 --> 0:09:47.040
<v Speaker 1>you still in touch with any of those fellow actors

0:09:47.280 --> 0:09:50.840
<v Speaker 1>because those were two really big shows for you. Yeah,

0:09:50.880 --> 0:09:53.880
<v Speaker 1>of course we all keep in touch, some more than others.

0:09:53.920 --> 0:09:57.760
<v Speaker 1>But when you spend so much time on set with everyone,

0:09:58.280 --> 0:10:03.480
<v Speaker 1>they become your family. So you definitely stay in touch afterwards.

0:10:04.000 --> 0:10:07.200
<v Speaker 1>If your lives get align, then everyone's doing so many

0:10:07.200 --> 0:10:09.959
<v Speaker 1>different things, but we make an upper for sure well,

0:10:09.960 --> 0:10:12.360
<v Speaker 1>and I think the bigger part of that is Drake,

0:10:12.440 --> 0:10:16.520
<v Speaker 1>because that was Drake's big start. Now he's this massive artist.

0:10:16.800 --> 0:10:18.920
<v Speaker 1>Are you know, are you two still friends? I know

0:10:18.960 --> 0:10:20.560
<v Speaker 1>that's one that a lot of your fans want to

0:10:20.600 --> 0:10:22.880
<v Speaker 1>know too, for sure. Yeah. I mean, like I said,

0:10:23.320 --> 0:10:26.600
<v Speaker 1>his life is one in one rocket ship direction and

0:10:26.720 --> 0:10:29.920
<v Speaker 1>I'm in a different direction. So every now and then

0:10:29.920 --> 0:10:32.080
<v Speaker 1>our past crass and when we do see each other.

0:10:32.120 --> 0:10:35.360
<v Speaker 1>It's really bittersweet and like fun and we catch up,

0:10:35.400 --> 0:10:37.680
<v Speaker 1>but I don't I wouldn't say that we hang out

0:10:37.679 --> 0:10:40.360
<v Speaker 1>every week, No, but we keep in touch for sure.

0:10:41.760 --> 0:10:45.600
<v Speaker 1>Now sorry, I mean one more question from from the web.

0:10:46.960 --> 0:10:49.560
<v Speaker 1>You also mentioned that you know, you make sure you

0:10:49.559 --> 0:10:52.360
<v Speaker 1>take roles that are really impactful and emotional that people

0:10:52.440 --> 0:10:56.080
<v Speaker 1>can learn from. Is there any life lessons that you've

0:10:56.120 --> 0:10:58.840
<v Speaker 1>continued to you know, have in your life from characters

0:10:58.840 --> 0:11:03.880
<v Speaker 1>you've portrayed. Yeah, I mean with every role there's a

0:11:03.880 --> 0:11:09.000
<v Speaker 1>little nugget with love heart. For example, one of the

0:11:09.000 --> 0:11:15.520
<v Speaker 1>big themes was perfection and searching for perfection and taking

0:11:15.640 --> 0:11:18.680
<v Speaker 1>a step back, but for that character in particular, to

0:11:18.800 --> 0:11:21.959
<v Speaker 1>realize that it's a little bit hypocritical to be looking

0:11:21.960 --> 0:11:24.520
<v Speaker 1>for perfection when she herself isn't perfect and no one

0:11:24.600 --> 0:11:29.040
<v Speaker 1>is perfect, and so it's about finding your flaws and

0:11:29.120 --> 0:11:33.320
<v Speaker 1>accepting them and accepting them and others And that's like,

0:11:33.480 --> 0:11:35.079
<v Speaker 1>that was a big one for me. And then it's

0:11:35.120 --> 0:11:39.000
<v Speaker 1>redeeming love that seem of that movie is so powerful

0:11:39.040 --> 0:11:43.400
<v Speaker 1>and so beautiful, and it's it's about you know, the

0:11:43.480 --> 0:11:46.000
<v Speaker 1>struggles of life and overcoming them with the people that

0:11:46.040 --> 0:11:49.320
<v Speaker 1>you love and choosing that person that you want to

0:11:49.640 --> 0:11:52.439
<v Speaker 1>go through the difficult times with and someone who will

0:11:52.520 --> 0:11:54.920
<v Speaker 1>choose you over and over again, no matter how flawed

0:11:54.920 --> 0:11:58.200
<v Speaker 1>you are, and not really settling until you find that person.

0:11:59.040 --> 0:12:02.000
<v Speaker 1>I love that, Amy, go ahead, I'm all done over here.

0:12:02.640 --> 0:12:05.360
<v Speaker 1>Well no, I mean on that note, I'll just encourage
