Dave Franco and Alison Brie are ready to take on a rom-com together!
to play the other."It shows how comfortable my wife and I are with each other," he jokes,"that I can send her off to have this romantic relationship with this very handsome man onscreen." In earnest, having his partner on hand while making the leap to directing proved invaluable.
"First off, the fact that she is such an incredible actress, she made my job so easy. She would just nail it on the first take every time," he explains."And then on top of that just having someone to come home to at the end of the day. As a first-time director, there were moments where I would get in my head and start to doubt myself and she was there to build me up in the right way and remind me that we were doing good work.
"There was like a four-week period where we shot all nights," Brie recalls."So we were driving to shoot at this house and the drive to the house was like, you'd start on a main road and then turn off onto this little dirt road. And then you'd just be weaving through an unlit forest until you finally got to this clearing where the house was. And there was no cell service. And I was listening to murder, true-crime podcasts on my drive to work every day for some reason.
Unwittingly, the shoot and their simultaneous stay in that Airbnb served as good preparation for quarantining together. And having collaborated so successfully on, the couple decided to chance it again and use their time in quarantine to write a movie together: A rom-com. "Looking at the way that Dave tackled the horror genre -- which is a genre that we both really love, although him more so than me because I get very scared -- but I think sometimes doesn't always get the respect that it maybe deserves and I would say the same about rom-coms," she reasons."Like, no one's winning Oscars for romantic comedies.
