The Wrong Paris is on Netflix, and the romantic comedy film starring Miranda Cosgrove has already become a huge hit with fans.
Following its release, the film made its way to number two on the streamer’s Top 10 English Films list with 12.8 million views.
The movie follows Miranda Cosgrove as Dawn, an aspiring artist who goes on the dating reality show The Honeypot to earn some money, despite not looking for love.
Veronica Long stars as Heather, a sports bar bouncer and fellow contestant on The Honeypot, and the actress spoke exclusively to Reach titles about her filming experience.
Paying tribute to her co-star Cosgrove, she said: “It was so lovely working with Miranda. She was so kind and easy to collaborate with.
“Between setups we would dance and just goof around and chat, and she kills it in this role! She’s just as sweet as her character.”
She detailed how some of the challenging shoots as a result of the weather brought the cast closer together.
The actress added: “So one thing about shooting in Vancouver is that it’s bound to rain on days that you don’t want it to rain.
“But I have to admit, shooting in the rain adds an extra layer of chaos and giggles and therefore fun.
“I know it doesn’t look like it in the movie, but the days we shot the mudpit/hay maze scene were pretty drizzly and the costumes team was so nice and would hold jackets around us and umbrellas over us until the last possible moment before the director called ‘action’.
“The biggest challenge in those scenes was to make it look like we were enjoying a sunny day on Trey’s ranch and not shivering cold.
“It was also raining the day that Miranda, Madison Pettis and I had to get in the mud pit.
“We were pretty intimidated by the idea of getting in this cold water and doing a bunch of takes, but the set design team was so kind and heated up the water for us.
“The locations team set up a tent with a bunch of heaters and between takes, Miranda, Madison and I would huddle together in these tents to warm up.
“It might sound contradictory, but the rain and cold contributed to our camaraderie by making us feel like we were in the trenches together. Call it trauma bonding.”
She struggled to pick a favourite behind-the-scenes moment, but said every day filming with The Honeypot ladies was “an absolute blast”.
She shared: “One of the best parts of working on this movie was working and collaborating with this incredibly funny and talented cast.
“Hannah Stocking and I would collaborate between setups and in the makeup trailer. While we were getting our hair and makeup done, we would brainstorm funny ad-libs to add into the scenes for that day.
“Bouncing ideas back and forth with her was so much fun. I also have to say working with Yvonne Orji was wild. Everything she says is laugh-out-loud funny.
“The first time we met was at a rehearsal before the filming started. We had lunch together with Miranda and I could barely get through my meal, I was laughing so hard.”
