Sophia Lillis First Talks About Her First Times

Hello, I'm not afraid, I play Nancy Drew and Nancy Drew on the main staircase and I'm here on BuzzFeed to tell you about my

first

embarrassing moment on a set during the

first

week of filming, we had a rehearsal and we had to do a lot to get to know each other to others and with the rest of the kids and we had to do some acting exercises, a lot of those exercises had to do with coming out of your shell doing some strange exchange games and I was I'm very embarrassed, I don't know, you guys turned purple and a little embarrassed, so that's what I remember from my first impression after meeting Amy Adams.

I was terrified to meet Amy Adams. I didn't really hang out with her much because they. I'm playing the same character. I remember one time I was locked in a room with her for two whole minutes and I felt bad because I had no idea what to say to her and she had no idea what to say to me. There were a lot of nods related to the nice weather, okay, I hope I didn't ruin it. First reaction when you got the role of Nancy Drew. It all happened pretty quickly. I remember talking to the director and we went over the script a little bit. a little bit, she's really funny, it was really funny, it was really fun to do, but when I laughed, after about 20 minutes, my mom got a call saying, "Oh, by the way, yeah, you got it, the first one celebrity you knew", Bill Skarsgård, the person who played the clown.

He's super tall, that's the first thing I noticed, that we tried to hide it from him, you know, when we were scared, we acted scared, he was going to be Johnny one, but I wasn't scared at all, I mean, in a way . I tried to hide it, but they're really bad at it, so I remember I walked through a door and he was in this room and he was supposed to be hiding, but he was in this room half made up and sitting drinking tea or coffee through a straw, He said something awkward like, hey, the first thing you do when you're preparing for a role, well, if it's a book or a series, I read the book or I try not to watch the movies because I don't want to. like coffee, what other people do, but I read the books if it's like, for example, Nancy True or that or sharp objects that were a book, so I do that and I just see where my character is going through and why. they do what they do for the first time being recognized in public oh oh that's difficult oh now I live in New York so many people do recognize some people do recognize or even say a lot but some people do recognize me but many of them do nothing, I They stare and they and I nod and then, oh, okay, I'm going to keep doing what I'm doing, the first friend you made in the industry, oh, that's hard because I I mean, I worked with all the guys and I guess which technically they are all my friends so I guess it's like the first one and they were all my first friends and it was actually the sharp objects that my sister played her name is Louie Wilson and we connected very quickly she was a great ukulele player and I bought, in fact, I bought a ukulele because she had one during Hana Parker's free period, we would get together and play the ukulele together, we kind of taught.

I suck, I suck so much at school Ailee, she's great, she got even better, she has a whole collection now she even has a banjo. I miss her, yes, this is my first friend in the industry, first big red carpet event, I think. was it because of that, yeah, that's right, so yeah, that was my first big event on a carpet oh oh, I'm terrified of those, I'm still terrified of them, so I'm just trying to remember a specific moment in that because everyone they. they're pretty much the same to me like he walked down with no idea what to do if his body and some people come up and talk to you I'm okay I don't understand that it's a good thing I had the guys because every time we had a type of interview, they were the ones who spoke and I sit and sit in the back, so it was easier for me to have the first memory of reading or watching Nancy Drew.

I definitely heard about Nancy Drew before the project. I never really liked reading the books once my family members, like my aunts and uncles and my friends, found out about this project, they gave me Nance Net, a lot of Nancy Drew books, a lot of the first and second, but never the third, fourth or fifth, I had to buy them myself. but now I have a complete collection of just the first and second books and I still have them in the corner of my room, a bunch of early acting gigs. I guess the first one that really counts is that I used to do a lot of NYU thesis films before I liked acting in big things, let's see, the first one I did was this very depressing story.

Now, looking back, my mom left me and I lived with my dad, who also worked at a funeral home. a happy story, not a happy one, I had fun, I had no idea what was going on, but that's normal for me.
