“When Paul came to me with this script, I cried and I related to it and I laughed and I just thought, ‘I’ve been through a lot of this journey, besides the training for a marathon,’” says jillianbell.
Fans of the multitalented writer, actor, and all-around scene-stealer Jillian Bell already know that she’s hilarious. But in her new movie, Brittany Runs a Marathon , Bell proves that she’s more than just your favorite part of Workaholics or 22 Jump Street. She’s ready to tell stories about complicated and flawed women, make you cry when you’re least expecting it, and yeah, she still wants to make you laugh.
ADVERTISEMENT When I ask about the challenges she confronted while shooting the film, I expect to hear more about the process of learning to run, or about portraying a story that’s equal parts comedic and inspirational. But Bell tells me that the emotional aspects “before shooting, during shooting, and after shooting” were some of the toughest. “I actually had a woman come up to me after the Provincetown Film Festival,” says Bell.
