“It was a lot of fun to play that, I liked the fact that she wasn’t a people pleaser and she wasn’t afraid to be opinionated and controversial and break the rules a little bit,” she said of her character. “I mean she was there to protect her sister and I wanted to stay true to that throughout the whole story.”
The actress also revealed that her first role in Hollywood was a small part in Straight Outta Compton, which she called a “wild experience.”
Tiffany asked if she enjoyed the job and Simone replied, “We were filming in this massive mansion in the Valley, so I was a bit like, ‘Whoa.’”
“I was just kinda grateful to be working,” she added.
