The Oscar winner is singing again you guys we've been waiting for this the newest movie, it's a psychological thriller, it's called mother Mary she's playing an iconic pop star who reunites with her estranged friend in costume designer on the eve of her comeback performance take a look. This is your very own. Okay, first of all there are so many ways I've seen you this one is far and above one of the best ways I just want to talk about this year. I know people hate hearing this but people are calling it the year Van Hathaway why because you have mother Mary you have the devils product coming out you have the odyssey coming out you've got flowervale Street and verity I mean this is like an avalanche of movies all landing at one. Yeah, it's it's it's just it's a little over 3 years of work coming out in a 6 month. Little window and people like how do you feel, I'm like you know what it's never going to happen like this again ever this is ever this. Yeah, this is so I'm just like right away. As much as I can let's talk about mother Mary because number one you play this incredible iconic pop star when you saw the script where you like singing check a rule, I've never played check psychological thriller check what made you say yes. I love that you think that I would be like singing. Thank you very much the opposite, but it's David Lowery. It was David Lauer he's such an incredible talent. You know I we're talking about my co-star Michaela Cole earlier and she and David to me they're like they're just are like if art was a person, you know, and David's just like that me so kind and he makes his range of films. It's kind of mind blowing like he made a movie called a ghost story he made a green at the green night and then he also made Pete's dragon and Peter and Wendy so his career has been so so many genres and I was so curious what he's going to do this beautiful story that he wrote about the artistic process and betrayal and friendship and what it feels like to be haunted and what it feels like to have regrets so it was just a rich and all the things you really had to prepare for because the singing piece is obvious. There's so much dancing and there's actually a dance scene that people will of you in the barn which shows off a whole other skill. Just how did you come to do that scene because that seemed very difficult when I was watching it remember the name Danny Vitali okay, he's an unbelievable dance teacher if you ever get a chance to take one of her classes jump at it and she became a dance teacher and she was the film's choreographer and we basically moved into a dance studio for 8 hours a day for months and months and months and we just figured out what I could do and then we choreographed that dance together and yeah, it was one of the craziest most transformative things I've ever had to train for and getting to do and mention mckayla before we became really wonderful friends and partners throughout this whole process and her reaction to the dance the first take is nobody knew it was coming and I did the dance and mckayla just looked at me and and as an actor ever ever yeah, I love I love that genius to like scream and delight, I love it. Everyone's talking devil wears Prada coming out a little bit later. Just your thoughts as this thing is coming out again in the world. It's it's so yeah, it's crazy Meryl and I were just on this like the worldwide press tour that went to so many different countries and to realize this movie that we made 20 years ago that we have so much fun making has now amassed a global audience in like the most organic way possible. It's so sweet and touching and genuinely humbling and thrilled to say that I've seen the movie. I love the movie, I know expectations are sky high, but I really think David Frankel lean brush mckenna and the cast, you know the Prada for but also all of the new people. I really feel like everybody's delivering something that people could really use right now and I'm so I'm just so proud and thrilled to be in it a lot of these films are so different, but I'm just yeah, I'm really happy. So just you know Al Roker never saw the devil wears Prada until I think last week so we watched it which I was very proud of him so cute and then he went to think everybody was talking well he didn't personally never knew what the call and any of the means he didn't know what the color cerulean was so he wore it and in fact, he's come to just say hello, Harry his sweater. A J crew sweater had my cloth literally like 15 years old wasn't and that's everything old is new again and now you are just as fashionable as my wife met Deborah said you've got to watch this before the new one comes out so we watched look it's it's it's meant to. She's seen a dead. I know well that would have come from a war is that a casual corner lump, yeah, whatever I was going to see in the movie. I love you I want to just say that I also just saw your speech at the UN so if anyone has a couple of minutes Google it it's very it just it's just elevate so anyway, we love you good luck with mother Mary and never had a crowd this big. Haha yeah, that's right, yeah, you can catch mother Mary and select theaters this Friday nationwide April 24th, thanks again.
