Elizabeth Banks talks 'What to Expect When You're Expecting'

BanksThe short-form answer is a baby.

At the end of the movie everybody gets a baby.

EWSo no surprise third-act, third-trimester twists?

BanksI wish it went sci-fi.

It would be so cool if I got a unicorn instead of a baby.

But no, this is about regular human beings.

If you count Cameron Diaz as a regular human being.

I mean, if you’ve seen those abs…

EWWho is your character?

BanksI play a very relatable lady-gal, a small-business owner who’s been dealing with infertility.

EWYou yourself have experienced similar troubles.

BanksI like how you refer to it as “troubles.”

EWThat does make it sound like it’s the Irish nationalist conflict or something, doesn’t it?

I think dummies are always funny, especially when they’re trying to do math.

Cast Zach Galifianakis in that and I’d watch it.
