SXSW: Ready or Not 2 with Maia Jae

Star Maia Jae joins the sibs to talk Ready or Not 2: Here I Come and her role as Francesca, the animalistic, 12/10-energy force at the center of the most iconic sequence in the film. MJ breaks down what it takes to pull off a musical fight scene involving wedding dresses, cakes, blood cannons, and her weapon of choice. They dig into Samara Weaving's outstanding leadership on set, the costume designer who hand-made multiple progressively destroyed wedding dresses, and the bond between cast members.
