I think this movie’s actually gonna be really good.
Ineverbelieve that, and I was like, “Maybe it’s gonna be great.”
People were starting to say that on set.
It’s just to be in the presence of people laughing and gasping and cheering.
PINEDA: 100%.
The movie theater makes you should shut off your phone and turn over to the experience.
Daniella Pineda Enters Her Villain Era
“It’s fun being Jaws.”
So, how much fun is it actually playing a complete badass?
PINEDA: It’s a lot of fun.
It was a lot of fun playing someone scary because you get to perform knowing you’re apex.
It’s fun being Jaws.
You guys have a great fight sequence.
When we spoke at SXSW, you talked about how it was a two-day fight.
I was just watching some dance choreography.
It needs to feel…
PINEDA: Organic, like its in the moment.
Fighting, to me, is the same.
I’m finding myself, much to my surprise, I keep getting cast in very action-heavy movies.
That doesn’t work.
It’s almost like getting fit to be able to go to the fancy gym.
Like, “I gotta get in shape to go into that gym.”
It’s a little bit like that.
It’s not always glamorous.
I was tired a lot.
ADDAI-ROBINSON: Well, even a five-minute fight takes two days.
PINEDA: A five-minute fight is a long time.
ADDAI-ROBINSON: Twelve-hour days or whatever it is.
The Accountant 2is in theaters now.
