Hahn also discussed her and Plaza’s long-awaited collaboration in an interview withEntertainment Weekly.

“I just admire her so much as a performer, and I was so excited that she was playing this part,” she told the outlet. “Weirdly, once we got together to start shooting, our conversations stopped. We gave each other a lot of space. It’s not like we ignored each other. We talked, but we never talked about [performance].”

“So when we got on stage together, there was definitely a feeling of on your heels, I don’t know what’s going to come at me, which was really exciting,” she added.
