She’s one of the hardest-working women in show business and Anna Kendrick's latest gig finds her on the cover of the December 2014 issue of Marie Claire.
The “Pitch Perfect” star chats about her role as Cinderella in the forthcoming “Into the Woods”-
“The character is thoughtful and complicated. You see what happens after she marries the prince, when you start to face problems in seemingly perfect situations. The interesting thing about her is she overthinks things, she’s uncertain – we don’t see that in most versions.”
“In a lot of ways, I think it’s this incredibly brave story. She’s neglected and abused her entire life, she finally gets love and it’s not the kind of love she was looking for, and she stands up for herself.”
Kendrick also discussed her plan to take a break from work for awhile- “The whole going-movie-to-movie-to-movie thing, I’ve been living that way for three years. Like I need to be a person and, you know, maintain relationships.”
And as a top-name actress, Anna has grown accustomed to having her appearance scrutinized- “The most common thing that I get is, ‘Am I the only one who doesn’t think that Anna Kendrick is pretty?’ And you’re like, ‘No, you’re not the only one. Arguably, all of the boys in my high school agree with you.’”
