The 47-year-old actress told CBS Los Angeles earlier this week, “I was miserable. I can laugh about it now."
Sanaa explained, “I got the job and I think Gina [Prince-Bythewood] finally got to the point where she had to hire somebody. It’s almost like she hired me because she couldn’t find somebody else. There wasn’t a lot of joy and there wasn’t a lot of trust in me. It was her baby and it was her first time directing. It was a big deal for her and nobody knows me then really. She gets to the point where she makes this decision with me, but I felt like the default.”
Sanaa also added that one challenge while filming was the fact that she never played basketball before ... never even picked up a basketball before acting in this movie.
Who would have known! Sanaa definitely bodied that role!
