Marley & Me
Wilson plays John in this dramedy directed by David Frankel from the memoir written by John Grogan. John is married to Jenny, played by Jennifer Aniston, and together they adopt a Labrador puppy. The 12 pound puppy quickly grows into a 100 pound unstoppable bundle of energy that dominates their lives and teaches them how to be the best people they can be.
That was what was nice about the movie that the situations didn’t feel ever contrived. Everything seemed kind of relatable so it wasn’t difficult to understand, this makes sense what he’s feeling.

Marley & Me
Aniston plays Jenny in this dramedy directed by David Frankel from the memoir written by John Grogan. Jenny is married to John, played by Owen Wilson, and together they adopt a Labrador puppy. The 12 pound puppy quickly grows into a 100 pound unstoppable bundle of energy that dominates their lives and teaches them how to be the best people they can be.
The reason I wanted to be in this movie is that it wasn’t the sort of girl trying to get the guy or the guy trying to get the girl or the chase and then you end the movie where they ride off into the sunset. This is sort of the prequel to that.
Doubt
Davis plays Mrs. Miller, the mother of a young boy enrolled in Catholic school, in this drama from John Patrick Shanley. Sister Aloysius Beauvier , the school’s principal, questions Father Flynn’s relationship with that student and recruits Sister James to monitor the priest’s actions. It is left up to the viewer to decide if her suspicions are correct or if she wants Father Flynn removed for her own reasons.
But I think it’s when Mrs. Miller comes in that you begin to understand that the argument isn’t just within these insular walls of this church, that it involves issues of rigid belief systems, and broadening your mind and your heart.
Doubt
Adams plays Sister James, a young teacher at a Catholic school, in this drama from John Patrick Shanley. Sister Aloysius Beauvier, the school’s principal, questions Father Flynn’s relationship with a male student and recruits Sister James to monitor the priest’s actions. It is left up to the viewer to decide if her suspicions are correct or if she wants Father Flynn removed for her own reasons.
There are things I didn’t realize – that you weren’t allowed to leave and you weren’t allowed to leave by yourself. If you had a doctor’s appointment, two of them went together. If somebody was sick in your family, you weren’t allowed to leave. So, you know, when my character says, ‘I can’t leave my class,’ it’s not like, ‘I can’t leave my class!‘ But no, ‘I really can’t leave my class. I’m not allowed to leave because my brother’s sick.’ And so there’s such a great sense of isolation and being sort of trapped in the situation and in this world for her through the story.
Doubt
Streep plays Sister Aloysius Beauvier , a Catholic school principal, in this drama from John Patrick Shanley. Sister Aloysius questions Father Flynn’s relationship with a young student and recruits Sister James to monitor the priest’s actions. It is left up to the viewer to decide if her suspicions are correct or if she wants Father Flynn removed for her own reasons. Co-starring Amy Adams and Philip Seymour Hoffman.
I met one nun who is 96 years old who ran the New York City school system in 1963. 70,000 kids in Brooklyn alone, and she ran it. That’s like running a corporation. There wasn’t as woman anywhere in New Jersey where I was growing up running a business that size, but she had a gigantic responsibility and that was something. But she was still less. She was still subservient to her parish priest. And that’s an interesting power dynamic. I’m sure it feeds into whatever the antagonism is in this. How could it not?
Doubt
Hoffman plays Father Flynn in this drama from John Patrick Shanley. Sister Aloysius Beauvier , a Catholic school principal, questions Father Flynn’s relationship with a young, male student and recruits Sister James to monitor the priest’s actions. It is left up to the viewer to decide if her suspicions are correct or if she wants Father Flynn removed for her own reasons. Co-starring Meryl Streep, Amy Adams, and Viola Davis. Hoffman speaks of researching the life of a priest.
Just I know this priest now and he told me about what was happening to the Catholic Church in the ’60s, and it was very informative and helpful. And then he just kind of told me…he kind of led me though the business of being a priest. The business around Mass and what they do and what they’re wearing and what it means and everything, so it was very helpful. Past that, I didn’t go in any deeper than that because the play is not really about the Catholic Church. The venue has to be convincing, but ultimately what we’re getting at is something that’s not about the Catholic Church. It’s about something else.
Seven Pounds
Smith appears alongside Rosario Dawson, Michael Ealy, Barry Pepper, Octavia Spencer and Woody Harrelson in Seven Pounds. The film is about a man (Smith) who wants to atone for the deaths of seven people in a car crash, including his fiancee, as a result of texting and driving.
Usually with the films that I make there are ideas that I connect to, but lately I’ve been dealing with the bittersweet in life because it feels more natural. You don’t ever get it really the way you want in life. That really fascinates me. As an actor, there are certain parts of a character that you create, and you train yourself to have those reactions and then it becomes hard to stop them when the role is over. You have to retrain yourself. My character in this film is like hot grits. You know you can’t shake them off and when you do, it hurts.
Yes Man
Deschanel stars in this British-American film adaptation of the Danny Wallace novel of the same name. She plays Allison, the eccentric love interest of Jim Carrey’s character named Carl, a man who decides to just say “yes” to everything. The film also stars Terence Stamp, Bradley Cooper, and Danny Masterson. On making the songs in the movie:
It wasn’t so hard. Yeah, I mean, I’m in a band myself and I write music and I do go to see shows a lot and so it wasn’t really that, I don’t know, it wasn’t too much of stretch for me.

Changeling
Jolie plays Christine Collins in this drama directed by Clint Eastwood. In this true story, Collins is a grief-stricken mother who takes on the LAPD to her own detriment when it stubbornly tries to pass off an obvious impostor as her missing child, while also refusing to give up hope that she will find him one day. Co-Starring Colm Feore and Amy Ryan.
It was a very hard film for all of us to make but at the same time because it was a true story, and because this woman went through so much, it was also very inspiring.

Body of Lies
In this thriller, directed by Ridley Scott, DiCaprio plays CIA operative Roger Ferris who uncovers evidence indicating that a major terrorist leader may be operating out of Jordan. He enlists the aid of CIA veteran Ed Hoffman in infiltrating the elusive saboteur’s vast underground network. During the course of his dangerous mission, Ferris gradually comes to question how much he can trust his presumed allies — who include not just Hoffman, but the outwardly helpful head of Jordanian intelligence as well. Co-starring Russell Crowe and Mark Strong.
You have this character that is in a deceitful world, trying to catch the enemy that he could never trust. But it is a dirty, ugly war. He’s trying to hold on to a semblance of morality and a belief in his country while his country is letting him down, and ironically he’s starting to trust people who are – while not exactly the enemy – not the people he’s beholden to.
