‘I’m so grateful, I feel so happy. But the best thing about the film is that we worked on this film for so long. We are very excited for the entire crew and cast,” Emma further said GMA.

“It’s pretty amazing to have the opportunity to be something more than just feeling like a cog in a machine. I think as an actor you audition. You’re cast in a role and you just want to do everything you can to make that role happen, and that’s still very true.

“But with producing, weighing in on so many different aspects and being there from the ground up and helping put it all together, it’s really extremely satisfying and really crazy to see a movie come to fruition when you’re there from the beginning have been. .’
