I mean, she's such an easy person to be around. But Lena [Khan], the director, was really mindful about making sure that we all had a connection. So during rehearsal, she set aside some time where Matilda and I could go [and hang out]. Lena was like, "Do you have any ideas for what you guys could do?" And I was like, "Well, does she like crafting? Because I'm a crafter." So we just crafted together, which was so much fun. In fact, after I left our first session, I went straight to the Michaels near my hotel and bought even more stuff that we could use for the next time we did it. We crafted a trailer that Ulysses would use. He needed a dressing room too.
There are a lot of emotional moments in the movie, like the water park and forest scenes. What was it like performing the more serious scenes?
The water park moment in the film was our first day. Well, my first day of work, I should say. So the newness of like, "How does the director work?" and "What's it going to be like?" So that's basically my memory from the water park.
There's a moment in the forest with my character, and I looked over at my daughters and there was a moment where I was like, "This is not good. They're gonna, like, stop loving me in this moment." I was like, "It's gonna be okay." I was trying to save my relationship with my children. They looked very betrayed by me in that moment.
BuzzFeed: Also, filming some of these scenes, it's just you and Ulysses. So, I'm assuming you're acting to like a tennis ball or something.
Yes! It was not hard for me to imagine what a squirrel looks like, so it was easier than, you know, a lot of the monsters I had to pretend to see in the Buffy years. So, surprisingly not as hard as one would think.
This movie has such an incredible comedic ensemble that includes yourself, Ben Schwartz, Danny Pudi, Kate Micucci, and Bobby Moynihan, to name a few. Was there ever a moment where you couldn't stop laughing on set?
There were definitely moments where it was hard not to [start laughing], but we were all pretty good about not breaking. Just anytime Danny [Pudi] was on set, it was hard not to laugh. I mean, I didn't have a lot of scenes with him, but I could watch him all day long.
Flora & Ulysses is based on a book by Kate DiCamillo. Were you a fan of the book before starring in the film?
Yes, my family and I have been massive fans of Kate since my oldest daughter was 5 and we were introduced to the Mercy Watson books. So now as they grow, we get to go into the books for older kids. I turned into a full-on fangirl anytime I was with Kate. I'm so glad she's as nice as she is, because she puts up with it. She's just remarkable in every way, and I love her characters. There hasn't been one book of hers that I haven't picked up and instantly fallen in love with.
