Melissa Fumero gets into a Bar Fight! in first movie role since Brooklyn Nine-Nine ended
's last season and this project came to me. I thought the script was really fun and funny and then I had a Zoom with director-writer Jim Mahoney who wrote the brilliant animated movieWe just really got along well and I was like, 'Oh, we're gonna have fun together, I really want to work with this person'. I'm finding that I'm very much like a vibe type of person. If I like someone, I just want to be around them and work together.
There's a scene before we walk into the bar where she's just like going off and that was a mix of script and just Rachel riffing because, like I said, she's a brilliant joke writer. It was really, really fun. I had been a fan of hers for a long time and so when she came on board, I was just really excited and we had a great time working together.
To jump on something like this, where the pace was really quick and we didn't have a lot of time to do things, it's definitely very reassuring to know that you know how to deliver the jokes and attack the comedy beats and be able to keep up with the other comedic actors. Luka Jones and Julian Gant are also really strong improvisers.
Dot in real life is, like, loud and boisterous and just full of energy and utter sunshine. It was really fun to get to spend time with her, get to know her and then she killed in every scene. I mean, her timing is impeccable, her choices were so funny. I am pretty competitive. I used to say that I wasn't but I've come to accept that I indeed am. I am, I have to say, pretty good at chugging a beer. I do it in, actually. So, during that scene, I had to play someone that, like, wasn't that good at it.
I thought the ending felt right and it didn't feel like something forced. It felt like, 'Oh this is probably actually what would really happen between these two people'.Finally, you've spoken before about how when you started out into the industry, you were faced with typecast roles before something likecame along.
