Lauren London says she needed to learn more about the 'soul connection' between her and Jonah Hill's characters.
"Before doing the movie, I was just apprehensive [if] this a story I want to contribute to," London told ET ahead of the film's streaming premiere."I just wanted to make sure that is a story that I wanted to contribute to. I [also] asked them, 'OK, well, why her and him?' Because she was written like hella stylish and he was like this... very low-key [guy].
Barris joked that production"begged" London to join the film's cast, explaining that"the whole point of it was if I'm looking on Twitter and I see Jonah Hill's dating... certain white actors I'd be like, 'I'm not blown.
Barris also revealed that he and Hill, who co-wrote the film's script, have been working on the movie for three years."He is very proud of that," Barris said about the actor, who last year."I think that he would say this is what we were trying to do -- bring some unity through comedy and through actually talking about stuff that people are afraid to talk about."
