“With the warmth and the charm, I guess there’s a little Greta in there,” Emily told Total Film. “She was a mix of a few other people I’d met and pulled from.”

She noted that her character was developed as a team effort, saying that she was “quite severe” at first. “But I think, for me, it’s always more interesting to play someone who’s in a situation where they’re way over their head,” Emily added.

The Fall Guy premieres in theaters on May 3. Press play on the trailer below!

If you missed it, Emily and Ryan had a very funny moment onstage at the Oscars earlier this month.
