Leslye Headland and Jason Sudeikis discuss Brad Pitt, 'Working Girl' and their new movie, 'Sleeping With Other People.'
In the new film, Sleeping With Other People, Jason Sudeikis and Alison Brie star as two romantic failures whose years of serial infidelity and self-sabotage have led them to swear that their relationship will remain strictly platonic. But can love still bloom while you’re sleeping with other people? Writer/director Leslye Headland’s (Bachelorette) sexy and sorta raunchy romantic comedy co-stars Amanda Peet, Adam Scott, Jason Mantzoukas, Andrea Savage, Adam Brody and Natasha Lyonne.
I recently sat down with Leslye Headland and Jason Sudeikis. As I walked into the suite, they were name dropping Brad Pitt.
I know Brad Pitt as well.
Leslye: We all do. We’re just name dropping the shit out of him [laughing].
Search engine key words right?
Jason: Exactly. I’ve been Googling mine and Brad Pitt’s names for 20 years and nothing has ever come up. Nothing. I’m just trying to get one link where our names are mentioned in the same article. I’m from Kansas. He’s from Missouri. It’s probably never going to happen.
I’ll make sure I name drop the shit out of Brad in the article.
Leslye: That’s all we need [laughing].
Jason: That’s all we ask [laughing]. As long as it shows up in Google somewhere. Do we have any questions for you?
I thought we were going to talk about Brad Pitt the whole time. I guess we should talk about the movie. That’s why we’re here.
Leslye: It’s a piece of shit.
I would love if someone were actually honest like that.
Leslye: Like I hate this [movie].
Jason: I think we’ll be honest today.
Leslye: We usually are.
Jason: Maybe it’s ignorant of me, but I sort of want to maintain some sort of integrity about not lying to people.
