I'm perfectly happy to have the reputation as a comedian. I love comedies, I would love to be doing more comedies. But I also feel like I hit the limit on playing the girlfriend type in a lot of rom-coms that aren't actually rom-coms, but guy movies that happen to have girls in them.
I love rom-coms, and I was bummed that they sort of stopped making them around the time I was old enough to be in them.

I feel like a lot of people talk about in rom-coms, there's the female best friend. There's all those archetypes in rom-coms.

He's the one that eventually meets the fat girl or the quirky girl of the girl group of friends and really hits it off.

Rom-coms are my jam.
You know, women in Hollywood, we don't get action franchises and superheroes. The rom-coms that made Julia Roberts, Sandra Bullock, and Reese Witherspoon stars are out of favor right now- nobody is making them. In this business, if you are an ambitious person, you don't wait for people to hand you opportunities. You have to make a way for yourself.
I truly believe the reason why there is a demand for rom-coms is because humans, whether its conscious or subconscious, have a need to feel happy and to see love.
'Hot Pursuit,' 'Pitch Perfect 2,' 'Trainwreck,' and 'Spy' were all being done in the last year. All four of those movies I just mentioned are not rom-coms: they're all about women doing different things.
I like rom-coms. I think they're adorable and endearing.
