Titres
Susan Cooper (Melissa McCarthy) is a modest analyst of the CIA and an inconspicuous heroine, ready to fulfill the most dangerous agency missions. When her partner (Jude Lo) fell out of the cloud, and another agent (Jason Statham) failed the task, she voluntarily goes to the operation under a deep cover to penetrate the environment of a dangerous arms trader and prevent the world catastrophe.
- Melissa, how did you get into this project?
- My husband with Ben (Ben Falcoon - actor, director and screenwriter. - Ed.) Somehow dined with the director of FIG. And then he first told me about Spy. He said that this is a film about a woman who has all the data to become a good spy, but there is no confidence. The more he told, the more questions I had any questions. I wanted to know about Susan Cooper all! In general, I got on the hook. And at the end of our lunch, I asked Paul whether he could give me to read the script for the evening. The next day I called the floor and said: "I don't know what your thoughts about this film, but begging, give me a chance." I do not even know what actress did not want to get this role. (Laughs.)
- What was the way to unite with the floor of FIG, with whom you already worked on the films of the "cops in skirts" and "Birdnik in Vegas"?
- It was wonderful, I love to work with the floor. I love how he organizes the film process and how his brains work. It is amazing smart and cheerful.
- What can you say about spies you played Jason Statham and Jude Lo in the film?
- They are, of course, beautiful. Such cool, spectacular, charming. But, speaking frankly, they are just stupid handsome. And I like it! (Laughs.)
- You could imagine that Jason Statham could be so funny?
- I knew that he was funny, since he saw him in the film "Maps, money, two trunks" (1998). And on the set of this film, we laughed very much, literally folded in half from laughter.

- The film has a lot of action. Did you have to train?
- I worked with a beautiful woman-Cascader of Diana Lee Islanto, which specializes in battles on swords and oriental martial arts. She is kissar Bruce Lee. I really liked to train with her, put tricks. But during the jogging of my heroine on heels on a wet, paved by the streets of Budapest, I wondered: "Why was it impossible to wear sneakers?" (Laughs.)
- It was difficult to shoot the scene of fights in the kitchen, in which you rushed with saucers, frying pan and vegetables in the killer, which Razchri Nargis played?
- It was very funny. But it is very difficult. It was our first day of filming. And when I beat Nargis on the hand of a frying pan, felt terrible. I thought I was cut her hand. (Laughs.)
- The film was very funny, but at the same time he inspires women on something more ...
"Yes, when I read the script, I had a feeling that once Susan could save the world, I can and I could." And when my daughters are growing and will watch this film, let them see that even Susan can save the world that heroes can be not only men.
- In the painting, the topic of female friendship is affected ...
- Yes, in the film we are trying to say that even if you are an outsider, you still can be good friends. It seems to me that the real strength, which women possess is the ability to communicate and open each other. Men, of course, is also typical, but not to the extent that women. I was lucky, I often work with women who, so it happened, I love the whole soul. Almost all of us who was filmed in "Bidnight in Vegas", long-standing girlfriends. The same was with Sandy (Sandra Bullock) on the filming of the "cops in skirts". And it seems to me that it is noticeable on the screen.

- What was your reaction when did you get a nomination for Oscar for the role in the movie "Hiswide in Vegas"?
- I was shocked when it happened. I did not believe that it was ever possible. My currently five-year-old daughter was completely bridged, and I hung up with her at the moment when the nominees were announced. Here they called Octavia Spencer for her role in the film "Seduir". We are friends with her for a million years, and therefore I burst out of happiness, having heard her name. And missed how they declared me. Ben said: "You have just nominated for" Oscar ", hear?" And I screamed: "What?!" It seemed to me unreal. It was something amazing.
- What can be laughing you?
- My husband makes me laugh several times a day. My children are also very funny. And parents, and friends. We must admit, we have a very serious family at all. (Laughs.) It seems to me that life is too short to be serious all the time. So why not laugh? It happens, of course, bad, and hard, but the rest of the time you have to try to have fun.
- What do you think laughter treats?
- And how! Sometimes we are with Benom Rzhem as abnormal and speak: we just added a couple of months to our life. And when I hear someone goes from the laughter, it becomes very good on the soul.
- What comic do you like more than others now?
- There are so many of them ... Stand-Up comic Louis Si Kay drives me crazy from laughter. Somehow, being pregnant, I watched his show. And I had to turn off the TV: I laughed so much that I was afraid to harm the child. It seemed to me that my baby lacks air. Yes, when you are pregnant, especially for the first time, you become very clear. (Laughs.)
- Can you say that you are satisfied with your life and career at the moment?
- Yes, everything is just fine! My husband and I are working on the comedy "Michel Darnell", the director of which he is. At one time, we met him on the set of comedy. And since then, we work great with each other. For all days, we together, it is very sharing our family. What we both have the opportunity to do what we love is just beyond the edge of our dreams.
