If I got the part, I would have to become material David could craft with. \u2026 I had to submit to being a beginner. The humility of that \u2014 showing up every day knowing you\u2019re going to suck. And it has to be okay. You\u2019re not \u2018bad.\u2019 You\u2019re just a beginner. Getting to that mindset \u2014 I had to shed some things that were hard to shed. It was welcome. But it was hard, the way transformational experiences can be hard.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\t\u201cIt\u2019s very brave work that she\u2019s done,\u201d Coel said of Hathaway. \u201cThe physicality she had to learn in preparation for this job \u2014 and it\u2019s not just us in [that scene], it\u2019s the crew, it\u2019s the producers, and so of course this day was terrifying, a little monster on her shoulder, but no one realized until after the first take. And then to keep doing it \u2014 take after take. That requires a lot of strength. Gallons and tons.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\t\u201cMother Mary\u201d hits theaters in April 2026.
