GAME CHANGER | ANNA KENDRICK a k AN INTERVIEW BY SCARLETT RUSSELL / THE TELEGRAPH / THE INTERVIEW PEOPLE n e PHOTOGRAPHS GETTY IMAGES Anna Kendrick on the film industry’s sexism, how her self-deprecating sense of humour has made her a social media sensation, embarrassing herself in front of Colin Firth and the life lessons she learnt from George Clooney. Frank, fiercely feminist and very, very funny – Pitch Perfect star Anna Kendrick is taking on Hollywood, one ego at a time. Well, when she’s not making faux pas in front of Colin Firth, that is… n a an interview with n d r i c k If you’ve found yourself wondering why the beautiful, well-paid actresses of Hollywood talk so much about sexism, Anna Kendrick has an example she casually mentions when we meet to talk about her latest film, Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates. She read the film script over a year ago, and immediately wanted the role of badly behaved party-animal Alice. ‘After playing the cynical girl so many times, I thought it would be fun to play someone who was so… I’m trying to think of a nicer word than stupid, but… stupid,’ she says. Alice’s best friend Tatiana is played by Anna’s real-life best friend and fellow actress Aubrey Plaza, and the two knew they could nail the roles of an outrageous pair who scam their way into an allexpenses-paid wedding trip with rich brothers Mike and Dave. There was just one problem: ‘You have to go through the process. We had to wait until the boys were cast. Then we got the parts we knew we would.’ It’s nearly unbelievable that a star of Anna’s success – Tony nominee at 12, Oscar nominee at 24, lead in a box-office no.1, Pitch Perfect 2, just last year – had to wait for the approval of the film’s director Jake Szymanski and the titular male stars (eventually played by her Pitch Perfect co-star Adam DeVine and Zac Efron). But Anna denies any slight. ‘We knew we had it in the bag,’ she says. ‘Besides, I like letting men think they’re in control.’ TM | MARCH/APRIL <strong>2017</strong> 110
