Hilary Duff and John Cusack make an unexpected hot pairing in the new politically charged movie War, Inc. and on the cover of LA Confidential.
John Cusack on the movie being an attack to the current administration’s war policy in Iraq:
“What’s happening in reality is so far down the rabbit hole that I think maybe unless you put an absurdist lens on it, there’s no way you could process it. Maybe that’s true. So I think maybe it’s an industrial film. Maybe the movie is really about self-surgery.”
John Cusack on Hilary Duff:
“You know, when she came out to do the film, we didn’t know her. We knew she wanted to do the movie, which takes a lot of courage for a young girl who’s already got a huge fan base, who’s a big pop star. I don’t think any of us knew she’d be quite as gifted, as intelligent as she is. If you think about it, if you want to hold the screen with Sir Ben Kingsley, Marisa Tomei, and Joan Cusack, you’d better be good. And not only did she hold her own, I think she’s every bit as charismatic and wonderful as those other three actors.”
Hilary Duff on how she got involved in the movie:
“I was writing my record, and taking time off from everything in my life to really focus on it. My agents knew that I was looking for different projects. They said, “Take a look at this script. It’s John Cusack, and we don’t know how you’re going to feel about it because you have to play a pop star.” I was like, “Ugh, I don’t even want it,” you know? I thought it was going to be the same old same old. Then I read it and I was like Oh my God and I freaked out. “I want it, I want it!” I called my agent, and the next thing I know, they said, “John wants to talk to you on the phone.” It all happened really fast, and two weeks later I was in Bulgaria filming!”
Hilary Duff on working with John Cusack and Sir Ben Kingsley:
“I’m really not shy at all, and since I’ve been working for such a long time, I’ve learned that when it’s time to not be shy, I go into autopilot or something. Being there with all of them…. They didn’t know what to expect of me and I didn’t know what to expect of them. We became such good friends. And working with John, he gives you such creative control. There was a superfun creative energy going around.”
Hilary Duff on droping a live scorpion down her pants in the movie:
“It was so scary. I grew up in Texas, and we had plenty of scorpions, but I never had to put one down my pants before. And my pants weren’t that baggy, so I couldn’t get any space. I did it a couple times with it going down my leg and it was terrifying. The little thing kept doing backbends because it obviously didn’t want to go in my pants, you know? Everyone on the set was cheering!”
