I’m so happy that after all she’s been through she is so positive and just keeps going! A true idol
-"The Dead Don't Die." Jim Jarmusch.
I love that dude.
He's one of the coolest directors out there,
writer, directors. Love him.
How did he get you to do this movie?
Do you know him?
No, I don't know him.
But when he started to put the cast together for it,
he asked if I would have coffee with him,
and he brought up his daughter,
and we kind of just talked about how she was a fan,
which was so nice, and then I got the opportunity to play it.
He's such a cool dude, and what a cool cast.
I mean, you got Chloe Sevigny.
You have Bill Murray, Adam Driver.
How's Bill? How's Bill doing?
Bill's great.
He's so fun. You don't know what he's going to do?
No, I never know.
I don't even know if he's going to show up.
No, I have no idea.
No, seriously, you really don't know
if he's going to do it.
That's just the way he lives.
But I saw there's a picture of him
whispering something to you at Cannes.
First of all, how cool is that you're at Cannes?
That's awesome.
Oh, hey, yeah.
Everyone's like, what is he whispering to Selena?
What is he saying to her? What is it?
It wasn't even – First off, it just kind of looks weird.
But he was just saying dumb things.
Like, he'd just lean in, and he'd be like,
you look great tonight.
And then he'd look back, serious, and be like,
where are you from?
And I would just, like, sit there,
and I'm, like, trying to, you know, be poised.
Be modeling, yeah.
It was fine. That's what he did all the time.
In press conferences, he would, like,
try to hit me with things.
Pass notes.
Yeah, it's just he's fun. He's a big kid.
He's a big kid, man.
The movie is funny.
It is zombies.
It is – It's everything you want.
It's a little gory.
There's one scene where I'm not –
I'm not really spoiling, but at one point, kind of,
Adam Driver cuts your head off.
Right.
Yeah, and – No, guys, you'll see.
It's funny.
And how did they do that?
It was actually my first time
really working with prosthetics.
So they just – They put this huge thing around my neck,
and they added all this disgusting coloring
and gooey stuff all around.
Yeah.
I thought they used, like, a fake head.
No, I was there.
And, basically, they sat me on an Apple box.
Where's Adam? Adam's here?
Adam – Yes.
Well, okay.
I'm not going to hold your head.
I'm not going to grab your head.
Okay, well, that's what he did.
So Adam had to grab my hair and pull it up
so that my head would kind of, you know,
do this dangling look.
I've never heard of that.
No, it was – Well, I don't know how they do it.
I just, like, had fun trying.
Yeah, and so you're dangling.
What are you doing, just acting like this?
He's pulling my hair so tight that he's just
swinging my head, and I have to position my body
where I go, exactly where it's at.
Oh, gosh.
It was just creepy and really funny.
Yeah, it's great.
I want to show everyone a clip here.
Selena Gomez in The Dead Don't Die.
Take a look at this.
Hey, is there a motel in town?
Yeah, there is one just down the road.
Oh, that's a really good CD.
Sturgill Simpson, The Dead Don't Die.
Yeah, I know.
I love this song.
Is it nice?
What?
The motel.
Oh, yeah.
It's kind of cool.
It's one of those old-school ones.
Like in old-school horror movies with, like,
like in Psycho with the separated bungalows?
The Bates Motel in Psycho was not separated
into little bungalows.
All right.
That's $12 for the CD and $2 for the soda.
Here you go.
You can just keep the change.
Oh, cool.
Selena Gomez, everybody!
