Taylor Swift holds a special place in Lupita Nyong’o‘s heart!

While promoting her new movie Little Monsters at the 2019 Sundance Film Festival, the 35-year-old Oscar-winning actress revealed how one of the 29-year-old singer’s helped her get through a difficult time in her career.

“I was going through a hard time professionally, and I was just in a funk,” Lupita said. “I was working abroad, and my best friend came to cheer me up. He played ‘Shake It Off’ on his phone, and we just had a dance party in my bedroom.”

In the film, Lupita plays a kindergarten teacher who needs to protect her students from a zombie apocalypse. Her character then sings “Shake It Off” while playing the ukulele to keep the kids calm.

“It meant a lot to me that this film had that [song],” Lupita added. “And so when I heard that they were having a hard time [getting the rights] I wrote Taylor Swift myself and asked her, and told her that story. And she said yes!”

Lupita Nyong’o and Josh Gad are joining forces for the upcoming zombie movie Little Monsters!

The 34-year-old Queen of Katwe actress and the 36-year-old Beauty and the Beast actor will begin production on the comedy/horror flick in Sydney, Australia.

Hailing from writer-director Abe Forsythe, the film will also star Down Under actor Alexander England.

Little Monsters follows “Dave (Alexander), a washed-up musician who volunteers to chaperone his nephew’s kindergarten class field trip after taking a shine to the plucky teacher, Miss Caroline (Lupita). Dave’s intentions are complicated by the presence of Teddy McGiggle (Josh) the world’s most famous kids show personality – and competition for Miss Caroline’s affections. One thing none of them bargained for, however, is a sudden zombie outbreak, from which Dave and Miss Caroline must protect the children,” according to Deadline.
