And there’s a goat!
A real-life goat living in the inn.
ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: What made you want to be part of this movie?
CHRISTINA MILIAN:It came along at just the right time.
I took a look at it and loved it.
How was shooting in New Zealand?
It looks stunning in the movie.
I’d been there one time so I knew it was beautiful and I heard so many good things.
This time around I really got to experience its entirety, culturally.
Sometimes in movies they fake it, but this is the real deal.
How did you cope with the Kiwi accent and slang?
And I’m like, ‘What the heck is a squizz?
Oh, take alookat something, that’s what it is.’
Do you find yourself using any of them still now you’re back home?
That would make me crazy.
How was working with Adam Demos (UnREAL), apart from being dreamy to look at?
Adam’s a great guy.
He and I had great chemistry on screen and he’s just such a cool guy.
Having somebody that’s just so nice, appreciative and has such good energy is infectious.
Okay, let’s talk about your other costar Gilbert, the goat.
Oh, yeah, Gilbert.
Gilbert’s a cutie.
Goats are surprisingly calm!
The scene when you and Adam sing “Da' Dip” together in the car is fun.
How was shooting that?
Did you get the lyrics right the first time?
We did do it a couple of times.
That was one of our favorite scenes.
It just takes over.
Were there any other scenes that were particularly enjoyable to shoot?
We both just had that realization where we’re like, ‘this is our job?
This is freaking awesome!’
We’re like chasing each other and I’m pushing him on the ground.
Your character enters a pretty random competition to win an inn.
What’s the weirdest thing you’ve tried to win or entered a competition for?
Like, for 5 cents you get all 12 of these albums!
And you know what?
You actually do get all 12 of those albums but they charge you afterward.
My mom was like, ‘What is this that you paid for?’
I’m like, ‘It said 5 cents!’
So then she gets to call and say it was ordered by a minor and do the whole thing.
That’s the closest I’ve gotten.
Rom-coms are having a resurgence right now.
What’s your favorite of all time and what do you think sets it apart?
My favorite one isThe Wedding Singerwith Drew Barrymore and Adam Sandler.
It has all the elements of this awkward and unexpected falling in love.
These two heartbroken people find each other when they need it.
Falling Inn Loveis available to stream on Netflix now.
